TTC & weight loss supplement?

Question

I am trying to slim down about 20, to 25 lbs and after months of trying nothing is working. So, therefore, I've considered taking a weight loss supplement. Would this decrease the chance of conceiving? Obviously I would stop taking it if I was pregnant.

Answer

I definitely would discourage any use of weight loss supplements. 
​They are addictive, some can make you feel really ill and give you the shakes.
​I have a friend who is addicted to them, so please stay away from them. 
​I lost 10lbs last year using my fitness pal app and spinning and swimming. 
​It's hard work but you can do it x x

Answer

I've considered gymnema which is supposed to be made from a plant extract with no caffeine in it....GL!

Answer

Have you talked to your doctor? They can do tests for thyroid and other things that can prevent weight loss. There could be a reason you're not losing weight. I wouldn't take weight loss supplements. It seems like every time they come out with a new one, a few years later it is discovered that they are terrible for you.

Answer

Bad idea. You have no idea what they put in that stuff. I think it's great to get healthy for your baby. I want to do that too! But not sure supplements are the way to go when you are TTC.
