Anyone else out there wanting to loose weight and get fit before TTC???

I too would also love to join this thread. I have PCOS, though I am starting some natural therapy. My biggest problem is sugar and caffiene I work night shifts, with an agency, plus I study so my hours are all over the place. Just need a kick

Thanks!

welcome Haley! Welcome Molly! Mel - yay on your OB!

Well I sorta fell of the wagon ad have been trying to climb back on so have been running after that darn wagon! Just can't catch the bugger though.

Have been "good" ish - salads for lunch, mangoe and other fruit for snacks. The shakes are great, but if I can't find my shaker I'll go for a cuppa which is sorta bad. And Pip's sick so working from home with all that food. Prolly also drinking too much alcohol. Plus have AF. Doh.

Welcome girls!!

BIG WOO HOO for Mel - this is fantastic news and I know how important it is for you! Nothing like that to give you a big boost of motivation for some weight loss!

I was SO good yesterday - but I had icecream with choc topping for dessert. I'm going with the "slowly slowly" approach!

Big walk planned for tonight!

Amy - baby steps are fine honey - I go cold turkey from all junk food / alcohol because I know if I allow myself just one little bit extra - I want more!!!!!! I did the same when I gave up cigarettes too...

Kaz - pmsl @ the alcohol.. what I wouldn't give to drink the corona in our fridge!!!!!

I have a goal of 10kg (cos its half way for me) and I can have a saturday full of whatever I want to eat/drink.

then back on it on Sunday

Maybe I should be doing that - I should set a goal and if I get to it - I can have a mad day where I can eat whatever I want (sensibly of course!) and then get back on the next day and head towards the next goal.

First goal is 5kgs.

I think it helps if you make small stepping stones on the way to your big goal... otherwise you get distracted, unmotivated, don't feel like you can achieve it because it looks so unattainable..IYKWIM?

i am currently excersing and eating healthy in the hope of dropping some kg, this is being closely monitored by my doctor as we are also ttc already, i would like to loose a little before i fall pregnant, but at least i am on a health diet and excersice program now that with a little modification i will be able to carry on through pregnancy once i fall pg

That sounds great Kell.

good luck with your TTC journey!!
