Weight Loss for IVF

Wow Tischler, go you, that is such a fantastic achievement, you must be extremely proud of yourself, well done!!

Not much to report from me, my scales are still missing in action, am thinking I will have to go buy some new ones rather than wait for my old ones to reappear.

Have been really good on the excerise front though, so hope that is helping.

Hope everyone else is doing ok too.

Way to go Tischler - awesome

I havent jumped on the scales since I got my BFP. Just lately I havent even been out walking, just not feeling up too it. Hopefully things will come right soon, I will either know what is going on....

Such a hard journey to be on. The highs are real high and the lows are just down right unfair....

Yay! I now have a weight loss ticker... LOL

Thank tischler
Well, today I cracked out the WII Fit... It had great pleasure in telling me I hadnt used it for 122 days... OOPS!!!
No wonder hubby says it was a waste of money... LOL!

Anyways, plan to use it for half an hour each day that I dont work, as my work is quite physical (cleaning motels) so I kinda see that as exercise but I only work a couple of days a week.

Wish me luck!

Hey all

Have been pretty slack on the WW front lately. Mixture of things including been away on sat mornings over the past 4 weeks although looked in my WW book and last weigh in beginning of april was 82.9 and currently weighing 79.8 and have not been to the gym in that time although will get back there later this week.

Hoping to lose another 6 kg or so by the time we do another stim cycle in July sometime. I know when i was doing the puregon nightly injections I did not have energy to get to the gym.

Good luck to all on the weight loss front.

9.2kg down here! The program is working well, and my colleagues & friends are commenting.

Long way to go yet... But it really feels achievable now!

Yeah, fantastic quieteyes!!!!!! I'm also planning to get back on track, so will weigh in tomorrow. I am going to keep losing weight and make myself feel great!

Let's keep this going girls - we can do it!

Hi girls,

Sorry for the delay, was supposed to weigh in on Friday, but forgot so have just done it tonight. So over the course of this IVF cycle, I've put on 400g. I'm so pleased with that, considering each previous cycle was 5kg!

It should make it easier to get back on track pretty well. I have 4kg to go til my initial goal .... so doing okay.

Scaredy - I find cholesterol levels random. I know really healthy people who have terrible levels and obese people whose levels are good. There's a hell of a lot of hereditary-ness in the cholesterol and for those people there just doesn't seem to be anyway diet and exercise helps - some just need to go straight to meds.

Rosie - don't worry about the 6kg - different scales and everything. When you feel you're ready to, we'll be here to support you in moving on with weight loss.

I'm going to go back to the gym this week after not being there for 4-5 weeks. Eeek! They have rung to ask me why I've been missing (and I wasn't home to take the call) ..... I think I'll book a weigh in so I can talk to whoever does it and tell them on the quiet where things are at, and that way they won't all hassle me and will give me some space.

Remember - "We can do it"

Wow, your doing fantastic Tischler, only 400g through an IVF cycle with all the ups and downs, thats very impressive, well done!

Thanks re your message re cholesterol levels, I've decided I'm not going to worry about it for now, am going to continue to try and lose this extra weight, get transfer done, and worry about it after bubs arrives (positive thinking )

Trouble, sounds like you are doing fantastic too, very impressed with the 1kg a week loss, thats awesome, go you!

Hi Orca - welcome back. I'm still hanging around here! Sorry to hear of your recent news Hope your FS had some suggestions for where to from here? We have our review tomorrow ....

An update from me, well I've put on 500g but not surprised at all. I have returned to a hinkering (? hunkering - not sure of the right word here) for salt and vinegar chips, V and coffee and it's not good for me. My plan to overcome this is as of 1 July. I CAN DO IT!!

I did still go shopping yesterday, and this time I've bought a short black merino dress .... very 'sexy' according to DH. Goes really well with my boots (which I hardly have off my feet - soooo good). I'm going to have to be game when I wear it, but it feels good and I know I look great, and will look even better with the 500g down and more. What better motivation huh?

Hope everyone else is doing well with their goals - WE CAN DO IT!!
