My husband and I have been trying for about a year and a half now. I went in to see a doctor after one year of trying. One of the first things they told me to do to help my issue (irregular periods/ovulation) is to lose 10% of my body weight. I already felt guilty that I was the reason we had waited to try for kids, so I did my best to lose the weight. It took a while, but when I got to the 10% mark, I started having more regular periods. It was just one of many reasons for me to start losing the weight for real. We're still trying and going through the process, but I'm determined that I be as healthy as possible for whenever a pregnancy happens.
