    nice to "see" you again. There is hope for you. My SIL has had 11 babies (and I know she has had one or two m/c along the way), she is what is termed "obese" and now has diabetes and still manages to have babies.

    It may be an idea to talk to a dietician about setting up a program for you. I know when I went to one it really helped along with a diagnosis of PCOS as I knew I had something wrong (some reason why) that I couldn't lose weight, I had tried to diet, and I had tried exercise and could only move one or two kilos. With the dietician showing me the low gi diet and exercise and "having to report in" and "weigh in" it kept me honest and I was able to lose some weight. I seriously need to lose more - maybe I should go back to see him.......

    I didn't lose any weight but I believe cutting trans fats out of my diet helped me conceive a sticky bub. I was 41 at the time and supposedly only had a 5% chance of even getting pregnant at that age, yet had 3 pregnancies in the one year (no fertility drugs were used) and the last one was successful - around 6 months after cutting out trans fats. If you haven't given it a try I highly recommend you do.

    Hi there Lisa,

    I don't really have any advice for you about the weight loss thing, but I just wanted to say I'm so sorry for your loss Take care of yourself.
