I am new to the site and looking for friends who are trying to lose weight before becoming pregnant. My husband and I are looking to start a family later in the year and I would love to lose 55lbs prior so that I am in a much healther place. I am currently seeing a nutritionist who specializes in woman who want to become or who currently are pregnant.

    Can we start a group? Or maybe you want to join this one: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/41-ttc-for-future-mommies-to-be

    I want to honor the goal I set with my best friend... bikinis before babies :)

    I also don't want to deal with obesity-related pregnancy issues and it would be nice if I could actually see my baby bump!
