Hi all
Me and my OH have always been keen on the idea of starting a family soon, and the urge is getting stronger by the day. We hope to start trying in approximately a year.
There's one problem. I'm 24 and tipping the scales slightly shy of 28 stone.
I know it is not healthy for me to try to carry a child at the moment and so I am trying (for what feels like the 5000th time) to lose the pounds.
I don't eat as unhealthily anymore, but I am still left with the after effects. I am pretty lucky in the fact I don't not have a high blood pressure or diabetes.
The road to where we want to be seems so far away, and for someone who has wanted children since they can remember, it breaks me to know I'm the only person who has put myself in this position.
I'm just wondering if anyone else is in my position or has been and can offer any advice!
