    yes I am down 15 lbs, with 50 more to go. Feel free to add me :) I would like to start trying to have a baby also, but not until next year. I would love to be at my ideal weight before that happens !! We can do this :) What kind of foods do you eat? I eat high protein, low carb/low fat, basically clean eating and under 1200 cals.

    I've lost 59# (started at 211 like you). It took me about 18 months but lost the first 25-30 in 6 months or so. (I'm 41 today.) Get some exercise in most days, eat well most days, and you can do it too!!

    I'm the mom to 3 girls (had my first at 21), and hope you are blessed with a baby someday too!!

    I am trying to lose 60 pounds and I started at almost the same weight! I hate to tell you, but that 60 ponds is all baby weight. ;) It is a good idea to get it off before you get pregnant because it is hard to get off with a newborn. Best of luck and feel free to add me!

    Please excuse me if I am in the wrong for asking but do you need to lose the weight in order to become pregnant or do you just hope to lose it before you try? I have never been pregnant, nor have I ever tried to become pregnant so I am not sure if this is something you need to do or just a desire. Either way, I support you on your weight loss journey. I am down 25lbs and realistically I would like to lose 50 more. That probably still leaves me overweight but that is what I am reaching for right now.

    I am on everyday. I have found MFP to be incredibly helpful in watching what I eat. Also being part of this community has helped me understand that I am not alone. I sometimes feel alone when it comes to eh people in my life. But, I know MFP is always here.

    Feel free to add me.
