Anyone else want to lose weight before TTC?

[CarlyP]

Aw Emmy, wait and see what happens Hun he may change his mind again xx

 

[CarlyP]

Minx- huge congratulations Hun how exciting xxx

 

[LittleMinx]

Thank you chick xx

 

[jessicasmum]

Wow Littleminx a big congratulations!!! Here's to a happy healthy 9 months

Emmy, about having to wait until your honeymoon to TTC, but how cool would it be a honeymoon baby

AFM: I think I might be having a shorter cycle than last one because I'm pretty sure I might of O, I have had EWCM the past 2 days so the wait is on I guess, we will continue BD every other day though until AF comes or FX bfp

 

[EmmyReece]

good luck for the 2ww jessicasmum

Definitely don't think there's any budging hubby on the whole wtt thing. So I'd better settle back in for the next 6 months or so

In all honesty, I think I feel ok about it now. It does make sense in so many ways, as I can get some more weight loss gone (rather than gaining), go on the quad safari, we don't need to get stupidly expensive travel insurance (though we will still make sure we're well covered), and I plan on drinking a few of these when we go on our private boat trip

Keep us posted on your 2ww jessicasmum

Emmy that is a great way to look at it, enjoy the first few months of married life with your husband. Then hopefully you will come back from your honeymoon pregnant!!

Looks like WTT is my new home for the time being! Until I get my hormones balanced and lose some more weight my ND wants us to wait. Kind of frustrating but best for me and for the baby when we do decide to start trying.

Hello & welcome!

It is frustrating, but you can vent here with us

Well I am full of cold and flu symptoms feeling extremely sorry for myself, I am taking medicine, day nurse plus cold and flu capsules and cough sweets so safe to say if I gain this week it is because of that !!

Why have I just seen this thread!?!?! Hi all :wave:

We're WTT while I try to lose weight, I last saw my FS a year ago and will be seeing him in 6 months - I need to have lost at least 10kg by then or no clomid (or similar ) for me

Does anyone else have issues with AF and wanting to stuff your face full of chocolate/crap food cravings? every month the same thing

 

[EmmyReece]

Yep vaniilla, I find that with af too (when she bothers to turn up in the first place)

Ohhh CarlyP, really hope you're feeling better soon

 

[MellyH]

I definitely know my period is only days away when I have massive chocolate cravings.

 

[Abii]

Hey ladies sorry I've been away for awhile, been so busy its crazy.
I saw a question about the chocolate cravings with af, I found that if I eat strawberry's with just a tiny bit of chocolate syrup on them it settles my craving very fast, even tho your still eating chocolate there's no harm in rewarding yourself every once in awhile

 

[CarlyP]

MMM I'm going to try that!!

My cravings come the week before AF! Which was a week late last cycle so I had 2 weeks of cravings and 4lb heavier!!!!

 

[EmmyReece]

been totally off plan the last few days, I don't know what's gone wrong

back on it tomorrow, hope everyone is ok xx

Hello all! Back to WTT after a year of giving it a break for DH to come along! SO I have already lost almost 80 pounds since having DS 4 years ago, and I want to take off at least 20 by April when we TTC. I am going to go back on WW (at home) on Monday and stick to my guns. I will also be quitting smoking on Monday (which isn't a big deal for me) but I want to be eating right so I don't have a gain.

I was down 90 pounds, but I gained a 10 pounds in the past two years!

I wish you all the best because coming from experience, its harder to lose weight then anything I ever had to do.

Argh. I feel like I can only lose weight when my husband is away! Then I can concentrate on eating well, especially having light dinners if I'm not very hungry, and I can exercise when I want. I finally managed to lose 2lb last week while he was overseas for work, and he got back two days ago and I've put it back on again. Sigh. He likes to socialise a lot, so the last two nights we have had dinner out with people, which involves large portions of not-the-best food and drinking etc. I know I should do better about portion control etc but I'd rather just not be faced with the decision! But I don't want to be a stick-in-the-mud and tell him he can't go out for dinner and drinks with workmates either. And I know he likes it when I come along. Ah well.

Mmm, that does sound hard, you can still go out and enjoy yourself just make sure you are extra good the rest of the time, it does work honestly, I had 2 nights out one week where I drank a large amount of vodka and shots but I was extra good the rest of the days and I lost 3.5lbs that week
