Not exactly the same outcome (getting pregnant), but wanting/needing to lose weight to get to the true/next goal. It's so frustrating because we want to get to the goal more than anything, but sometimes it seems farther away than when we first started on the weight loss quest. <br /><br />But you're not giving up, and that's important. It's actually why I know that you're going to be successful. You keep adapting and adjusting to do what's best for your body to keep yourself as healthy as possible. <br /><br />Good luck, although I know you won't need it.Bellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16652982046716095117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1438044143754993742.post-82250563931742999922011-01-25T10:11:56.445-07:002011-01-25T10:11:56.445-07:00I agree with others..you are totally gorgeous!

If ...Hugs- and I am betting you will get pregnant! If you have good medical insurance now might be the time to visit a good gyn and then an infertility specialist- I know a few people with PCOS who took metformmin and were pregnant fairly quickly. DD has a good friend with PCOS who got pregnant with IVF (she was in her 30s) and then went on to have 2 other kids with no interventions! As fro company, it's hard to eat salads when they are eating tempting food, but it can be done. I was thinking you should start making some bread/rolls- it's fun to use yeast and you can freeze leftovers too- and take out your frustrations kneading the dough! Keep your motivation! You can do it.NANhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01809533152358579455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1438044143754993742.post-57242853901758549672011-01-21T14:37:19.946-07:002011-01-21T14:37:19.946-07:00I have the same fears as you.

I took mega doses of clomid for 9 months with my second son before I got pregnant. The 1st, 3rd, and 4th took anywhere from 4 months -6 months on the meds to get pregnant. My little miracle #5 came on her own 2 1/2 years after of not preventing pregnancy. It takes time to get pregnant but they are worth it!!! (We had a family fast before I finally got pregnant with #1. It takes a lot of faith and a couple months after the fast we did get pregnant. We had been trying for 2 years prior to that.)Becky Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00821871736023597158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1438044143754993742.post-73753649890081701222011-01-20T20:28:40.443-07:002011-01-20T20:28:40.443-07:00Lady, you are going to be the most wonderful mothe...Lady, you are going to be the most wonderful mother to the most darling children someday.

Don't know too much about PCOS, but I am a former L&D nurse...so I do have some background to back up my opinions. You are correct, you have not really and truly given it a chance to happen...<br /><br />As far as the weight loss...yes, using it as the main motivation to get pregnant good, but you need to move away from that now and do it because you NEED to be the best and most healthy you, you can be, for yourself and your family. And that means for life...<br /><br />Take care!Renee Paj https://www.blogger.com/profile/16904747422773645980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1438044143754993742.post-44614511366228157092011-01-19T22:05:57.175-07:002011-01-19T22:05:57.175-07:00Brittany- I always feel like a fish out of water w...Brittany- I always feel like a fish out of water when it comes to comforting friends about baby related things- but I'd like to extend my ear if you ever need it, for real. <br /><br />I don't know the heartache of wanting children to be honest, but I do know you're going to be one smokin hot mom when you do have a baby. <br /><br />Sounds like someone needs a 'baby-moon'.

We finally went to see a fertility specialist right before Christmas and got some hope. They are helping me lose weight to regulate my periods and also putting me on ovulvating drugs (called letrozol)and booster shots. This month is our first go round and are in the middle of the "waiting to see if it worked" phase. I so know how you feel and the pain and doubt that you feel. I have spent years convincing myself that I wont be able to get pregnant and still, even with all the amazing "help" that we have been lucky enough to get, feel very doubtful. I just have to believe that everything happens just when it is suppose to, not when I want it to. But, most days, it is so hard to convince myself of that.<br /><br />Keep your head up.<br /><br />Taylor<br />http://imperfectlyimpeccable.blogspot.com/Taylor Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10305557863305748995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1438044143754993742.post-56410937691872262902011-01-19T20:13:37.402-07:002011-01-19T20:13:37.402-07:00Girl, you will sooo have that baby. :) It is the d...Girl, you will sooo have that baby. :) It is the desire of your heart & i believe that it will happen!

I had an eating disorder that almost comsumed my life. She changed EVERYTHING. My whole outlook on life and food changed, I was 20 yrs. old. I went back on birth control till she was 2 1/2 and my hubby and I decided we wanted to try for another baby, unfortunely it ended in a miscarriage at 11 weeks. I was heart broken and confused, my eating went to crap and I gave up. Then I realized it will all work out the way it is suppose too, I tried to stop stressing about it and let my body do what nature intended for it to do. i became hopeful again. My little man will be 1 yr. old on Friday : ) <br /><br />keep doing what you're doing and your body will do what it's suppose to do, you're going to be a wonderfull (and healthy!) mommy one day : )Josie @Skinny Way Of Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12150906404080251854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1438044143754993742.post-25964860162559426732011-01-19T19:20:09.175-07:002011-01-19T19:20:09.175-07:00I don't know much about these things, BUT I do...I don't know much about these things, BUT I do know that lots of woman try for far longer than 4 months before they get pregnant.
