losing weight so i can become a mum!

Had a slight slip up last night, sat watching tv & got hunger (boredom) pains so had a kit Kat & bag of crisps while watching Geordie shore (pure filth that programme) lol.

Been to the gym today but think I over did it? I ran for 10 minutes on treadmill but had to stop as my heart felt like it was going to burst out my chest!! not sure what that was all about? But anyway I sat down for 5 minutes then continued on treadmill for another 30 minutes just not running, fast walking instead.

somehow gone back up to 13st 7lb?! that time of the month so maybe why!! grrrr

Going to do shepherd pie for OH soon but I'm having new potatoes, veg, gravy, stuffing & Yorkshire puds as the mince I bought isn't lean & is mega high in calories so not going to bother eating any!

I'm trying to be consistent with my diet now as I'm getting a bit bored of only loosing on average 2-4lb a month, mostly becos I have too many days off dieting! I'm not seeing the difference in my shape so really do need to stop having little treat days, easier said than done but I'll give it a bash lol x
 
Well done with the weight loss so far :) It sounds like we're a similar weight and height. Stick with it!

Bought a couple of dresses for my holiday today. They are lovely but my belly looks horrible! All bloated so I have 3 weeks of being strict on my diet to loose another few lb & try to make the dresses look nicer on! Did stand in the changing room mirror in primark in just my knickers & bra & I can definetly tell I'm slimmer, especially on thighs hips, shoulders & arms!

I'm not bothering to get weighed now until the day before we go away hopefully if I'm good I'll get a nice little suprise when I jump on scales next x
 
I've struggled lots with holiday clothes - they're all beautiful it's just a shame about my fat body in them lol :( I tried on 10+ dresses in primark and came out empty handed! Xxx
 
thats why i hate going into primark! its so depressing!


I think it's really hit or miss, and everything they have is in similar styles so if one thing doesn't suit, neither will anything else! I went back today and came out with a kaftan and a towel so slightly more successful.. lol xxxx
 
I've gone back to doing weightwatchers today!! what am i like lol

Hope every one is well x
 
Hi Lushlash, Well done on you're weight loss, I'm in the same boat as you, Me & my partner have been together 14 & a half years & I was diagnosed with poly cystic ovarian syndrome when I was 16 & we can't have babies because of it :( We have been to a fertility specialist who was very patronising & basically told me in the nicest way possible that I was morbidly obese & that I had to get my weight down to 14 stone before I could start any sort of treatment, well that was very disheartening so I joined weight watchers lost about 2-3 stone felt amazing & got comfortable again and started to put the weight back on & more, so here I am again back at square one but determined to lose it this time around because Iv'e recently turned 30 & feel as though my clock is ticking & time is running out for me to get healthy & be a mum which we would love more that anything, I wish you all the luck in the world & hope everything goes well for you x

Hi Hun, I find most fertility specialists (especially on the nhs) horrible to deal with!

I've seen plenty over the years & your basically treated like a lab rat!

What is your bmi now if you don't mind me asking? As for pcos they treat it with a drug called clomid but your bmi has to be below 35 for you to be accepted for this.

Your bmi then has to be below 30 to be accepted for ivf!

Such strict guidelines. :( I'm now waiting for an appointment to come through to have my Ivf in Leeds but I do need to loose around another 20lb before my appointment, every morning when the post man comes i dread receiving the letter incase the appointment is only a couple of weeks away!

This is why I'm drastically trying to loose this last bit of weight x x
 
Got weighed this afternoon & I'm 6lb lighter!!!!! Yay

Only really started trying hard this past few days so I'm really pleased with my loss.

I'm now 13st 1lb

next weigh in is on Thursday! My goal is to get into the 12's (hoping i can achieve this by Thursday!) x

Thanks Sam. Early last year I was 14st 9lb & I'm now 13 stone so I'm nearly 2 stone lighter, I just have to remember that!

January this year I was 14st 3.5lb so in just a few months I've lost 1st 3.5lb & that's with me not even dieting properly, makes me realise I can loose weight, & that's why I'm now fully on plan (8 days now with no hiccups! :) really pleased! xx
 
I'm 42lb away from goal (seems a long way away :() can't wait until I can update my diary to say I've reached it! x
