Need some support/motivation/friends - Slimming world weight loss for conceiving in a clinic

Hi all,

Here it goes... (a bit of a story coming)

I am trying to loose weight this year as me and my girlfriend got engaged last year and would like to try and have a baby via a fertility clinic + donor next year. To do this I need to be below 30 BMI and currently I'm 5 foot and 13stone 9.5 and I need to be 10 stone 7lb (so need to loose just over 3 stone to get into the bracket where they are willing to treat me).

In addition I'd like to be slimmer for my wedding in 2021 and just in general. I look into the mirror and it makes me upset.

I've never been able to loose more than just over a stone and have struggled with my weight for years but it has never meant enough for me.

My friend had just had a baby and I've never been more broody in my life. I see babies and I just want one of my own. I've also never been more scared that I cannot achieve this and so I'd love to find other people on slimming world that I can chat with. My group is a small group and are mostly older couples and I haven't been able to gel with them yet.

:( I really hope I succeed. It's all to do with mindset but as an emotional eater - being scared about not achieving something isn't a good start.
