In January, I started the 21Day Fix videos and started being mindful of portions and eating whole Foods. No processed food and no fast food. I also walk 30 mins to an hour a day. I've lost 16lbs and gained lots of muscle. I feel SO much better. I only have 8lbs that I want to lose now. The goal is to get pregnant and have a healthy 9months. I gained 60lbs with my first pregnancy and even though I lost almost all of it soon after, I refuse to let myself go again.

Fertility diet is "slow" carbs like beans and stuff. There's a lot on Pinterest if you search there and eve if you google it.

@moto, I was eating a lot of junk too, but it's amazing how fast you get used to eating healthier foods. Once you start losing weight and feeling better, it becomes natural and so much easier. The hardest part is just getting started and getting the initial motivation to do it. For me, I knew I wanted another baby and that I wanted to be healthy for him/her so I just decided to go for it. Plus, feeling more comfortable with my body has made me more confident in all areas of my life again and has made me feel like I'm in control of my body.

@fetusmommy2011, I have actually gone through many cycles of "Getting healthy". I was 150 when I got pregnant with DS. I went down to 135 when DS was 2. Then I stopped working out, stopped eating healthy. The weight slowly crept up over the years. I did weight watchers in between and lost 10 lbs down from 155 to 145. Then I stopped and again the weight crept up. Every time I lose and then gain, it goes up even more than I lost. It is so hard. This time I am trying to lose weight not just to look good but also so my TTC succeeds, so I am healthy. Hope I can keep it up this time.
