Aw, thank you! :hug: Wanting to get pregnant was my main motivation for starting over last year, as I was on a regain due to letting stress get to me, was surprised with my first pregnancy, and ended up miscarrying. :( I vowed to take better care of myself in hopes of not only carrying a healthy baby full-term, but to be an active, healthy mom. And if I've learned anything from the past year, it's to never give up! Although I'm a little down in the dumps tonight as I broke back over 220 again, at the very least it's for a good cause. :dizzy: Oh, and I came up with Elladorine by combining my maiden name, my married name, and adding -ine to the end of it for flair.

Good luck to you, you can do this! :hug: :)

Looking at your overall starting weight, you have come very far! I would be so proud of myself if I were you, and I'm sure you are. I get down too. Last Thursday I was 327, and the next day I was 329. I was like what the ****? It must have been a fluke though, because I'm 325 right now. It's slow, but 8 pounds in one month and only eating half-way healthy and not exercising at all yet is a feat in itself.

I'm nowhere near ready to have children myself, but I wonder the same thing, if being this heavy would prevent that or limit me from being the parent I want to be. I wish you all the best, truly. You sound like such a determined, strong woman. One day you will carry a baby to full term, and you and baby will be healthy and happy. :)
