Waiting to TTC in 2020 - losing weight first

[helia]

We want to begin TTC in the spring and I need to lose some weight before we do. I'm still about a stone, stone and a half overweight after the birth of our first child... who is now 3.5. Is anyone in a similar position and, if so, would you like to join in on this thread and help to motivate each other? We are looking at starting to TTC in April at the moment.

Me! 👋🏻 Really need to lose weight. Was doing well with exercise before Christmas Day... last two days have been food and more food and no exercise!

Hello! Hopefully this has just been a blip for you, KatieRobin! I am planning to start on 6th January as that's when I go back to work after Christmas. I'll stock the cupboards with plenty of fruit and veg in the meantime and start meal planning some healthy meals. I might look into doing Couch to 5k too but the thought of me running for even two minutes feels ridiculous right now.
