Hello everyone,
I am trying to lose 5 stone before trying for a baby. I know I could probably try now at the weight that I am but I want to be as healthy as possible before trying for the sake of my health and my baby's. I have lost 9 pounds so far (by running-I am doing a half marathon next weekend- and healthyish eating) but that is since March and so it has been coming off very slowly and I have been getting a bit despondent. I thought I would start a thread on here to track my progress and hopefully meet others with similar goals. After my half marathon I plan on going to the gym/swimming/running at least every other day for approx 1hour and perhaps tracking calories on Food Focus. My main focus will be on doing lots of exercise rather than going on a strict diet which I have tried before and which made me very obsessive about food which led to me quickly regaining the weight once I got to my target weight.
Good luck everybody with your weight losses and I will check in again soon...
