Can weight loss get in the way of TTC?

I've been limiting my caloric intake to about 1500/day and losing about 1-2 lbs per week.  Was thinking this would help TTC, but maybe its the opposite??

    I think drastic changes in weight can possibly prevent you from ovulating. But if you're losing a steady 1-2 lbs per week, you should be fine.

    after anovulatory diagnosis and TTC for 1 1/2yrs with several medicated cycles and one chemical pregnancy, we have our first bundle of joy!

    I think what you are doing is a good thing... I have been doing about the same rate as you. I was actually told by my OB to lose the weight in order to help regulate my cycles and be at a healthier weight for pregnancy! Keep up the good work! I know it isnt easy!
