Ok here is my intro!

My name is Elizabeth i am 22. My DH is Jeremy and he is 23.
We got married July 1st, 2006!
We started NTNP in July of this year but to no avail! This has been my first month properly trying to conceive and well its not going so hot at the moment lol.

Ok i am a bigger girl.. i guess plus size would be the correct term. i am around a 18/20 us sizes. im 5'3''..

I dont mind being a bigger girl but im at a point where im not happy with myself anymore. i just want to be healthier for myself and my future children!

Hi ladies,

Wow! really nice to get such great responses; I know it might seem silly but I sort of thought I might get a bit of hassle writing that thread with people telling me to lose weight before even considering TTC!

This is a really nice idea too, thank you for setting up this group

My name is Sarah and my OH is Dan. We've been together 10 years, married for 2. This is our first real cycle of TTC and I am so excited! It is like a switch has been flicked in my head and as soon as we made that decision to come off BC I have been cultivating a nice big baby obsession

I am size 22/24 and 5'9". I did lose 9st ages ago but then put it all back on plus vat when I met my hubby and got a social life!

I feel like I have been 'waiting' to do so many things in my life until I was thinner...TTC was one of them. But then as I have got older I have thought - I have a really nice life with a husband who I adore and who adores me, loads of friends who would walk 1000 miles for me and a brilliant, supportive family. So I am overweight and I know I should lose some, but then looking at all of the above, isn't that far more important to a baby than having a stick thin mummy?

So here I am.

Saying that I know I owe it to the 'baby gods' to give something up in exchange for a bundle of joy so my offer of 2lbs a week I hope will suffice! I am doing Slimmingworld as well as I think it is the best all-rounder, but I think anything is good (as long as it isn't extreme).

So here's to us cuddly ladies - good luck in trying to lose a few lbs if you're trying to, but EVEN BIGGER luck in getting your BFP.

Hugs xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Well done Alana on eating well and walking the dog I am sorry that after introducing yourself I reverted back to a screen name...sorry chick

Sarah....it's great that you've joined us
I'm not really doing a specific diet but cutting down on bread....it's one of the comfort foods I'm afraid...along with potatoes
Also trying to do more exercise as well in the form of wii fit and walking the dog.
Hope you get that really soon

Hi All,

Im Sarah (27, 28 this friday), DH (34, 35 Jan 8th).

We have been together for 10 and a half years and been married for 19months, we are both overweight, but DH has lost 3stone so far this year and me, i have lost 1 stone, i find it harder to lose the weight as i suffer with PCOS..

Im a terrible person for skipping breakfast, aswell as having the PCOS, I also have alot of food intolerances, so have a struggle trying to find something quick to do for Breakfast..

I try and fit in half hr or so on my Wii fit.. and even walk to work (when the weather is nice)

Good luck everyone, heres hoping we get our weight down and that all important BFP xx

You're not out til she's here hun....and soooo many people have said that they thought she was on the way and then got their bfp.
I'm actually off work today with 'flu-like' illness...as the doctor put it....
Have been feeling pretty most of the day as well as aching but at least the temp has come down Just gutted that we only got to bd 3days before O and not any closer...oh well I guess time will tell.
