Lucys diary! PCOS, trying for a baby. (Have now succeeded in trying for a baba!!!)

[lucy.]

Hello everyone, came across this forum after googling slimming world tips so i thought i'd sign up and start my own diary

My name is Lucy, I am 26 and currently trying for a baby with my amazing boyfriend. I was diagnosed with PCOS at the age of 24 which was very upsetting for me and my boyfriend, we had always spoken about having children for a long time and to be told that it would be hard to get pregnant was pretty devastating.
So, after countless consultations with various doctors I was advised to lose some weight to reduce my symptoms. I always knew I was very over weight but had no idea how much it was impacting on my health, I was pretty much in denial. So I joined Slimming World last year and have managed to lose 3 stone so far, I have quite a bit left to get into the 12's but as long as I get there it doesn't matter how long it takes.

I too suffer with PCOS it's a pain in the backside at times, but least I don't have the trying for a baby to deal with yet! You started at similar weight to be too, but i've been battling my fat for 4 years now and only just got into the 12's and still not in a normal BMI. Good luck on your journey
