What do i want more?!?

Question

I just have to vent...my husband and I have been trying for 2 years unofficially and 6 months officially and my weight has yoyo-ed that entire time (240-275 mostly).  Lately I've been having some seriously negative feelings about myself.  
I want a baby more than anything in this entire universe .... but do i?? Because I keep thinking if I did want this baby so incredibly bad and my diet is negatively impacting my chances of becoming pregnant,  then do I want this baby more than I want this cheeseburger??  Will I be able to stop eating so terribly once I become pregnant to give my baby the nutrition it needs?   I'm such a huge proponent in health by way of nutrition but I am .....TERRIBLE at following my own advice.   I can't seem to help it or myself.   I'm trying again... but I don't know what to do :(

Answer

I want a baby. So I’m limiting my carbs which is my downfall. My body hates them; but I want a baby; so yeah, I’ll work out 3 days a week and cut out bread, pasta, rice, and sweets like cookies and cakes. 
Will I let myself indulge a little, yeah, sure I’m human, but 80% of the time I’m eating healthy and exercising; because I want my baby.

Answer

Girl I have had this same exact conversation in my head countless times. I want a baby so bad it physically hurts and yet I continue to eat junk knowing it’s pretty much the only thing standing in our way. It’s like an addiction and I don’t know what to do other than continue to try my absolute best and not give in to the cravings every time. I was 360 at my highest weight and then had the gastric sleeve surgery 6 months ago and am now 275. Still losing and working towards the goal of being at a healthy weight and hoping for that positive sign soon!!

Answer

I’m 375 and currently 7 weeks pregnant. My hubby and I have been trying for three years and have lost 2 in the process - so I understand your frustrations. I had to quit a LOT of things (smoking, the occasional drink became NO drinks etc) but what I learned is, as long as you’re getting enough nutrients, cheeseburgers aren’t a huge deal. Everything in moderation.
And I would recommend starting your prenatal vitamins while trying so your body has what it needs.
I hope this was helpful and I pray you get your little angel soon! ❤️
