Diet,IVF and me!

Hi all! My journey started 14 Jan 2013.
I alwas was a big girl when i was growing up. I ve never had a fat friend before and basically never had anyone understanding me or be able to support. So i was always pretending that im comfortable in my own skin (i mean as comfortable as you possibly could be when you are carrying cake for your own birthday and little crowd of boys calling your names OR when you are going shopping and straight to men's department as they dont have girls jeans in my size)
Than i moved to UK and i felt comfortable here (you would laugh but i think it was one of the reasons why i actually moved here except learning English) i could walk in any shop and buy jeans (size 16-18) or nice girly top for myself.
When i got married we decided to try for a baby and nothing was happening. (Up to today its been 4,5 years of trying to concieve).
We went to doctors and havebeen told that we could be qualified for NHS funded IVF as long as i have healthy BMI.
Long story short...
Weight watchers (1 stone) , Raw Food diet (4 stones).
And once i start eating "normal" (cooked) food again i started gaining weight. So from my my original loss of 30 kg (104.7 - 74) i put on back almost 10!!!
I started Slimming World 4 weeks ago to support my First IVF treatment and hopefully pregnancy too.
At the moment im just doing at home and from 83 kg im down to 80.7 kg which is good as my main goal not to put on weight while i have hormons treatment.
Sorry for such a long introduction!
I really hope to find support and friends in this group! X

Good morning! I think so. I sort of plan my meals one week ahead. Snack on loads of fruits (sometimes i gobble whole pack of grapes at one go lol) And it works forvme
 
Basically i went for a meeting once (first time i subscribed) just to get those booklets and get some info. But it was soooo busy and i spent 2 h listening about someone's life, promotions from the group leader and 0 useful information!
