Hi my name is Melissa and I need a buddy. I am 23 and I need to loose 55 lbs. My husband and I have been trying to get preg since may of 04 but I was told that I have PCOS. The doc told me to loose 50 lbs so here we go.... I would really like the encouragement of someone that understands my situation.

Hi, I also have to lose 55 lbs. I have'nt lost any yet. I guess I am not trying enough. especially not exercising. How do you think, we can challenge each other. any suggestion.

welcome to the boards melissa!!!
wish you lots of success!

Hi bluerose that would be great. Not sure how we can challenge each other but i think just the encouragement would be great. i'll give you my email so we can keep in touch that way too.

Hey Melissa,
My name is Melissa too and I am 26 years old and want to lose 55 pounds or more. I am also trying to lose weight so my husband and I can concieve. Maybe the duo can be a trio.

Hey Melissa,
Im trying to lose about 50lbs. I have about 40lbs to go. I'm from Mississippi but moved to the Middle East last year. Its really hard to find diet foods here. So, I have been to pretty much EVERY grocery store here. I have found ones that carry Lean Cuisine...yay! Anyway, my husband and I tried conceiving for about 8 months and nothing. So, I decided that I should lose weight before we do something so life altering. I want to be happy before I bring a child into the world.
Are you on a certain diet? Im on Weight Watchers. I fell off the wagon and am slowly getting back on. I dont count the exact points. Ill start doing that in a few days to get back on the wagon. Good luck!

Love,
Deanne
