Hello everyone! I am overweight, BMI 33 and trying to lost weight to have a healthy pregnancy. I've jade 3 miscarriages so far and doctors can't find a physical problem so decided I needed to try and lose. I am currently 170 and don't want to conceive until I hit at least 150 which would put me in BMI 30.

Anyone else losing weight for pregnancy purposes?

    Hi, I'm somewhat in the same boat. I'm overweight and pregnant. Was about 200# when I got pregnant. I am on here to not really lose weight (at the moment) but to have a healthy pregnancy. I wish you the best of luck.

    Sort of. We hope to start TTC in a year, so I'm wanting to be in peak physical condition. I'm already fit and strong but I'd like to drop my body fat percentage a bit more. I've also been cutting back on alcohol.

    I'm also trying to lose weight before getting pregnant! My husband and I will begin TTC in a couple of months. We don't have any children yet and are trying to make better choices now for a healthier future for all of us. Feel free to add me :)
