Hello everyone, Good morning to you all.
i would like to introduce ourselves, i am mandy and rob is my husband. we have started slimming world together to help each other through it, we are doing it at home as i have been in the past.
I have pcos, and have been over weight for 10 years now, i yoyo like mad. i was a nice slim size 10 until i came off the pill to try for a baby then my pcos kicked in and here i am 10 years later 4 stone heavier that i would like.
Rob decided to join me on the diet this time as we were going out for a meal and he tried to put smart trousers on, only he could not fit into any of them. it was a wake up for rob.
we as a couple have been trying for a baby for 10 years unsuccesfully, we have had 3 courses of IVF ( well icsi) but with no success. it came down to a choice, spend about 7000 on another course and all the emotional stress plus i might have to give my job up as i do not have an understanding boss and would not approve of the time off last minute to travel to leeds or 3000 on a cruise. after a long chat we decided to live our life and come to terms with the fact we would not have kids, so now it is waiting for the royal caribbean site to allow us to book our cruise, not yet taking booking for september 22nd 2012. so that brings us to our goal, no goal weights just would like to be slimmer, for the formal outfilts. looking forward to wearing the fancy dresses.
nice meeting you all
Mandy.
