good morning guys-
you guys are crackin me up this mornin!

tara: af is nasty w the scale dont worry.....
lorra: thanks for the support bc i get nothin from mom except the 'youre not an orthotist' look. itds just ridiculous i even went as far as not to tell my chiro i was going there yest bc he laughs bc he knows something always goes wrong so i didnt say anything in anticipation of not having them for my appt tomm and low and behold....i was right! i dont wanna be right anymore!!

am up 1/4 no biggie im not worried-dissappointed but not worried.

I'm holding out hope for ya they get things right this time

I THINK I might have lost a pound ....we will see in the morning though.
It will be nice to be back into the 230's never thought I would want to see my weight there with the old scale I never touched it b/c it was so off ..227 was the highest I seen on that one. At least now i will not get a shock when I go to the Doc and they weigh me

Tara- I'm thinking about doing an IVF cycle. I will have to save for it but I'm thinking if the getting the weight off doesn't help getting PG I'm gonna go for it .I always wanted twins

[andreaphilip3]

thanks lorra i hope so too its just that his timing is always off.....it takes 2 weeks to do a pair.....this last time was a month. now he says 10 so im thinkin 3-4 weeks.

my neice and nephew were ivf.....

[Losing4another]

Your probably right about him ...could you maybe get a different person to do them if he doesn't get it right this next time?

Really it's a small world huh? I don't know anyone personally that is heard of IVF let alone had an IVF done. I'm going to see my RE in november and try a clomid cycle to see if the weight loss helps me O stonger..if not I'm going to see about going for an IVF ASAP..even if I have to travel to another state or hour an a half drive to Orlando or Tampa. Did insurance cover your sisters( or SIL) IVF?

[bgbrwnys101]

I think that is great, but I know that most people get pg easier after the weight comes off, also the pregnancy is usually harder if you start out heavier. I never did IVF but I had 5 inseminations. Have you tried that?
Tara

[andreaphilip3]

thanks lorra...
no this it. ive been to so many brace ppl and im not goin to anymore. i think all will be ok now i just think its a longer wait then he says no biggie.
no my sis ins didnt cover the ivf

[Losing4another]

I hope just losing the weight will help ...saving 10,000+ to use on the baby after s/he is born rather then getting it here. No i've never had an IUI..but most of the issues are with me not DH. Out Of the few cycles I did O we got Pg... if O happens we get PG ..no eggie though doesn't matter how well the spermies get to where they are going Someone told me about egg sharing which makes the cycle cheaper. I haven't talked to DH about it though and I'm not so sure I can do that. Right now we just have to save save save and l have to lose lose lose...My goal is at least 26 pounds before making the appt and at least 35 before doing a clomid cycle....I think that will keep me going mentally to keep pushing the weight loss/not giving up. If all goes as planned I should be getting into the RE sometime in November doing a cycle in December/Jan.

My sister told me this evening that one of her friends made it to her 100 pound goal. I'm not sure how long it took her but it seems like less than a year. She loved to bake and she was a fast food QUEEN. She did it all on WW no surgery. She still has another 90 before she is at her goal but thinking of her today kept me from doing a slip up during dinner. I thought that girl can lose 100 and break all her unhealthy habits I can at least shed 40 pounds for a baby to make our family complete.

Sorry for the book hehe ......
Andrea- two three weeks as long as you've waited you could do that standing on your head......don't really though

[bgbrwnys101]

I am weighing in today at 202 even, not sure how really, but not complaining!!!LOL
Andrea I would think there was a supervisor or someone who could take care of this for you, this is ridiculous!!!!!
Lorra I am the one with the problems also, You should ask about IUI its a lot cheaper mine were about $350 each. I do know that Cigna covers ifertility treatments. Blue Cross doesnt.
Great day all!!!
Tara

[Losing4another]

Thats would be the insurance i have too BLUE CROSS. They use to cover the blood work and stuff like that but back when they did we had Health first so I've been paying out of pocket all along. A clomid cycle cost runs around 375 most of that is the stupid U/s the RE gives before you start. Really don't understand why that one is so important then you have the choice of using ovulation sticks or go with more U/s...I was a slow responder so if I would have went with the U/s's we would been close to a 1000 per cycle just for a clomid cycle.

My morning WI was 240.5 AGAIN ...darn it...that scale will move sooner or later

[andreaphilip3]

hi gys runnin late! WILL CATCH UP LATER......

[andreaphilip3]

hows work tara?

[Losing4another]

Way to go Andrea...YOur really shedding those pounds

I started back to WW completely (no day off day on like before) Saturday. I kept going between the two plans not sticking to either 100%. I was going to wait until Monday when we started the challenge but I stepped on the scale Saturday morning and I was 244.5 I was like He!! NO time to stop playing around and get this weight off. Then My sisters friends story gave me another mental boost when I heard she lost 100 pounds already. So I'm okay with not making the challenge since I'm already down 4.5 since getting back on track...... BUT not going to give up until I see what that scales reads Monday morning.
