Trying to conceive

                    Wow, its been a year since my last post. Well this is unfair but I only thought of this blog when I have decided to detox again. Still overweight and still on the journey to losing weight. I have another journey which is trying to conceive. As you know, hubby and i had been married for almost 4 years now.... actually were going to celebrate our 4th in a few days.

                   My journey in trying to conceive is as difficult as my journey in losing weight but of course failing to conceive hurts big time. Longing monthly to see the two lines in the plastic strips is now my biggest goal. I have PCOS or polycystic ovaries and have been working up since after my wedding. I had tried several doctors, i was on clomid for more than a year, it worked for a while yet we had no luck. I tried puregon shots and menogon shots but my body did not respond to these super expensive meds. I was desperate so i went to see an infertility specialist who saw that I had a polyps in my uterus. I still tried two sessions of IUI with her but when it failed, i had hysteroscopy- a surgery to remove the polyps. My ob said that was enough reason to prevent implantation. After the surgery our hopes got higher however two months of work-up after the surgery still there was nothing......

                    I am really hurting... so this is how it feels to be barren. BUT i still have faith. my God is a generous God. Its just not the right time. Maybe there is something else i need to do and i think i need to prepare my body first. I need to be healthy in order for the baby to be healthy too. Maybe its really what i need.... to have a healthy body .... this is why i remembered this blog site. This time, i will lose weight healthily.
