Hi girls,

So, um, looks like we're taking a break from ttc after a loss. Our dear cherished has dragged me in here - lol - (and didn't I kick and scream!) because fitness really makes me feel good, and I think it will be a healthy focus in the mean time.
So, here's a quick history (OK, not quick, I'm so chatty at the mo):
I have always been a chunky kid. Home didn't teach me great eating habits, and then just ballooned a little bit more when I got to the end of high school. When I returned from living in Europe, I weighed in at 90kg (I think, didn't have regular access to scales) Over the four years following, I have managed to lose 20kg following a bit of a two steps forward one step back pattern (only 5kg off, 3 kg on type thing)
I had a goal weight of 69kg, and reached that the same day I got my BFP in May. I was shocked to find that I puton 5kg by 10 wks, and was really worried about how I would go. However now, after the D & C, I'm back to 71kg, so most of it was big angry placenta, which is something of a relief.

Other history: I have followed MG's blog all the way through, and you girls are lucky to have her on your journey, she's a very strong woman who's doing a great job. I love your work MG!

So I don't have a goal weight as such, as I am not officially overweight - the great thing to come out of my scan was that my BMI is 24.9 - yay!!!
But I do want to really focus on fitness and being well for the next year. So here I am.

Congratulations if you got through that Cherished will tell you that I have motor fingers, and I won't get offended if you tell me to pipe down and stop hogging your thread
