    Me! Planning on losing a few lbs and toning up a bit before trying for a third. I also plan to continue logging on MFP and carrying on with exercise whilst pregnant.

    I'm with you. We are going off BC this month and its part of my motivation to get back into shape (I used to be all about running and eating right...then I met my now husband and it went down the tubes.) I want to feel good about myself and know that I am being healthy before getting KU'd

    I am trying to lose 25 Lbs while we are trying to get pregnant. It is so difficult when you jump off birth control. I would love to have a group of lovely ladies for support. Remember girls, "Will this food satisfy my appetite, or ignite it?"

    I am trying to lose weight before I try for baby number two. I have a 17 month old daughter but I really want her to have a brother or sister so I need to lose weight. I want to be a healthy size and have a healthy BMI for my second pregnancy. I have lost 21lbs so far but still have a long way to go :-)

    I started this program two years ago, and after a year of logging and a 65 pound loss, I was finally able to conceive. My baby is now 7 months old! It can happen! Now I'm trying to tone back up and get back on track to loosing again. 15 more pounds to pre baby weight!

    That's the main reason I started losing weight. I have about 50-60 more pounds to go and then I'm going to pop out two little gremlins. Lolz.

    That was my goal as well, but we have started officially trying so now I am in more of a maintenance mode. Anyone feel free to add me as I friend if you would like. I plan on logging all through the pregnancy to make sure that I am eating healthy and getting in my fruits/veggies/protein and water as I should be. And also so I am in the habit of logging after the baby is born.

    I am trying to eat healthier now that my hubby and I are trying to get pregnant, which is why I joined MFP! Not so much trying to lose weight but trying to eat a good, healthy balanced diet and not gain a million pregnancy pounds. I am afraid after being on birth control since I was 18 that it may take a while, so we are settling in to have fun " trying " to get pregnant anyways :)
    I don't take gaining weight well, so getting pregnant will be an experience itself.
    Going to FR some of you ladies!

    I am in the same boat. Trying to loose about 18lbs before getting pregnant with baby #2. New to logging. Would love to connect with some other ladies working hard per baby.

    I am currently working myself down to 16% body fat before getting pregnant again. I'm at about 22% right now, so I'm getting there.

    If I can keep myself from gaining more than 25 pounds while pregnant, and get pregnant when I am down to 125 pounds or so, then it will be quite simple for me to get back to pre-pregnancy weight.
