thats great 18Kgs!!! wow wish I could lose that much I so need to my BMI is 39 which is very bad! so am trying to get that down to at least 34 or 32. its soo hard as Im 37 years old and just want to hurry up and get on with TTC but I need to do whats best for the body and the baby. I had the lap band surgery done about 2 years ago and I lost about 10kgs for a while but then it just all came back on, I still have it and try but its so very hard your whole lifestyle needs to change and I regret having it done now, I suppose its not a quick fix and not for everybody....I know the key is excerise cause my diet is pretty good and very healthy. I've thought about giving cycling a go but I couldn't get my feet into those stirrups and balance myself.. is it hard? can a road bike work just as well?
