Big Weight Loss Milestone AW

thebeadingladythebeadinglady
in Infertility

My goal with my dietitian was to be under 300 pounds by my appointment with the RE on Monday. I weighed myself today and I was 299.6! I know a lot of girls on here will probably be shocked by how high that number is, but I don't give a crap. I am so excited that I actually met my goal, and with a few days to spare! I seriously did the happy dance right there on my scale. Off to update my weight loss ticker!

    That's fantastic !!! Great job !

    If you don't mind me asking, how long did it take you and what did you do to lose the weight (any specific diet or just portion control & lots of cardio)?

    If this IVF doesn't work, I'm going to take a few months off to lose some weight. If it does work, I'll be looking for ideas on how to drop the lbs. in appx 9 months.
