in Motivation and Support
Hi Everyone,

I've been struggling with my weight for the majority of my life. I've finally topped out at 205 lbs. and I'm ready to make some significant life changes so that I can start a family with my husband and create the foundation for a long, healthy life. Are there any ladies out there that are trying to conceive (TTC) and are focusing on weight loss to support fertility?

I haven't been diagnosed with PCOS, but I'll probably have to get tested in the next few months (we've been TTC for 10 months now). In the meantime, I'm hoping weight loss will help our chances of conceiving.

Here are my stats:

32 yrs old
5'4"
SW: 205
CW: 205
GW: 160

I'd love to find some other buddies who are TTC to motivate, and be motivated by, as we go through this journey.

Thanks!

Caitlin

    I'm sort of in that situation. Weight is not issue but I'm trying to maintain my health so I don't have another factor to deal with.

    Feel free to message me privately and if you'd like to share stories.

    Hi. I'm in a very similar situation. I've struggles with weight forever, am at my highest now (190) and need to make some changes! My husband and I have been TTC for 9 months, my doctor thinks I have PCOS but I also haven't done testing yet. I know weight loss helps PCOS and will be a prerequisite for any fertility treatments if I end up needing them, so I welcome any friends who can help motivate me to stick to it!

    My husband and I are TTC as well but I'm also trying to lose weight. I lost around 80 lbs. about 5 years ago and have gained half back. This has been a huge struggle for me the past few years. I have to religiously log even if it means logging more calories then I'm allowed. That's when it really puts things into perspective. I'm hoping to get more friends on here because motivation is a huge help for me! Good luck to you!
