I've decided I want to be at my goal before we TTC again. IF dh will co-operate. I've lost 31lbs since I gave birth but I still have a long ways to go. I think we'll wait at least 2 years before trying again though so here's to hoping!
I had my WI this morning and finally slipped into the 100's! I was so excited to not see that 2 in front of my weight. It just makes me feel like I'm so much closer to my goal weight and so much closer to start TTC! I've been thinking about it and I think if I can at least get within 10 lbs of my goal weight, we will go ahead and start trying, which should hopefully be around July.
We had a baby girl in 2008, and decided when she was 2 we would start trying, so this december we will start trying, but I had tons of problems I think due to my weight with her so I want to be super healthy with the next one good luck to all of you!
I am also working toward a more healthy me before adding baby #3 to our bunch. Of course my DD is only 6 months old and I am nursing so it will take awhile...
I want to be 200 when we start TTC. I don't think it will be for about 2 years at least though.
slai - fortunately we have zero humidity where I am. That does help with the heat some. It's like walking into a bonfire instead of a wet blanket when you go outside.
Well ladies, I only lost .6 lbs this week. It's still a loss, which I'm happy about, but it's still a little disappointing. I think some of it was water weight so hopefully it will be better next week.
hi all well i would love to join ...im also trying to lose some weight to get a little bit healthy before we start ttc next month.........if we succeed ill still be huge but dont want to postpone the baby just coz of my weight my dd is going to be 4 this yr in summer so i think 5 yrs gap between babies is enough..........cant wait any more ...........i lost abt 7 lbs in january and hope to lose afew in feb .....every lb matters........going to up my exercise in feb so lets see how it all goes
When i got pregnant with sarah i was 185 down from 206 and with my knee problems we had a stressful pregnancy and with the help of my trainer ( i was at the gym 5x a week until 2 weeks before delivery) i managed to stay off bedrest.
One of my doctors has laid down the law and said i can't get pregnant until i'm 165 minimum and i'm working my butt off to get there.
I really want to get down to 180/170 before TTC, but am conflicted because I'm 38 & feel like I really don't have that much time left. On the other hand, I remember being so envious of the cute pregnant ladies and their cute maternity clothes. My entire body felt gigantic and utterly UN-cute. I also had gestational diabetes with my 2nd pregnancy and would really rather not have that problem again. So I will keep working on the weight and hold off on TTC until I just can't stand it anymore.
How is everyone doing? I am waiting out a month long plateau. I can't seem to move past 193 and it's killing me. Hopefully it will pass soon.
I guess DH and I have taken one of the first steps in the baby making process. I stopped taking my bc pill a couple weeks ago. I wanted to have a few cycles off bc before we started trying. Still shooting for July to start TTC, but if this weight won't budge, we may push it back a month or so...
From your stats, it looks like you are so close to goal. Congratulations! Keep it up!
Hopefully it will be something that will pass quickly.
good luck to all of you!
