As of this morning I have lost 28.6 pounds since my high weight in
January and 22.2 pounds since I started low carbing and walking (almost)
every day nearly 3 moths ago. That is more than 10% of my body weight
in the last 3 months.
Today I met my first major goal- 191.2, or
officially out of the "Obese" BMI category, and now in the "overweight"
category. My BMI is now 29.9.
Now the trick is for this to
actually work re: Me ovulating in a reasonable amount of time. I took
the second round of clomid last week. My health insurance wouldn't cover
it cause they are bastards and they don't cover infertility (not sure how they covered the first round, maybe it was an accident), but thankfully it was only $20 out of
pocket. I'm taking ovulation pee tests (they are kinda like pregnancy tests but tell you if you are about to ovulate) and if it works the way it's supposed to I
should ovulate sometime this weekend. Of course I'm not counting on that.
Today I'm traveling to a conference. I'll be there until Thursday
but that's day 12 so I shouldn't have ovulated by then. Hopefully the
stress of traveling won't fuck up my cycle again but I'm already afraid
it will. Last time I traveled the first day I got a
positive ovulation test and then didn't end up ovulating for another
month. Hoping this time since I am traveling before ovulation it won't
fuck me too badly, but with my fertility luck it probably will sigh.
If
i don't get pregnant this cycle I have to go back to the doctor for
"more tests" (that my insurance will not cover) and B will have to
come in for tests too, so really hoping it works this time around.
Ha Ha, I started a low carbohydrate diet, along with shooting for a goal of 300 minutes of aerobic exercise/week. This morning I weighed myself, and my BMI is at 30.1. I am still craving getting into that 29.9 (overweight as opposed to obese) category! A third-party observer might think it's kind of silly to feel that such at incremental drop in weight to get into this new category is such a big deal, but it is to me dammit!
ReplyDeleteStill following along and hoping for good news. In the meantime, in the present, enjoy your holidays.
