Trying to Lose Weight to Gain a Baby
 

I have a big dream, one that my weight is preventing me from accomplishing. I want to be a mom, a healthy mom and right now I am neither a mom nor healthy. I have a big dream and I have come to realize that it is going to take me putting on my big girl panties (pun intended) and becoming accountable to myself to accomplish my baby dreams. I hope some of you can help keep me honest.

For years I told myself I had time. I’d have time to get the weight off. I’d have time to go to the gym tomorrow. I’d have time to start that new diet next month. What I did was make constant excuses to make time later rather than now and now time is running out.

So starting today I am making time! My first priority is my health; to get control of the eating and get my body moving a little farther than the refrigerator to the couch will help the baby dream come true.

Welcome to 3FC!

Making time! ABSOLUTELY! Best decision. TODAY is the day. NOW is the time. No putting things off for tomorrow... because, as we are all so well aware here, tomorrow never comes.

:hug: You can do this!

Welcome to 3FC!

I'm also losing weight to try and have another baby hopefully someday soon! Check out the pregnancy forum too because occasionally a TTC thread pops up there.

Good luck and I hope you stick around!

Welcome!

Welcome, Light Days! I started this journey for the very same reason, and just 8 short months later (I began on Jan 18, 2011) I have lost nearly 100 lbs. Now IS the time to do this, and if you commit to it I promise you that you CAN!

Good luck with your journey, and I hope all your baby dreams comes true. :hug:

Thank you
