Hey ladies! 

I'm so glad they put up a section just for the chub club!  I thought I would start a thread for introductions...

My name is Meagan, I'm 26 and weigh 250lbs.  I've been married for a little over a year to a fabulous guy in special forces training for the Navy.  We just recently reunited after several months of being separated while he went through basic training and started training for the field he is specializing in.  We have been 'seeing what will happen' without BC since June of last year (2008) and TTC for two months now.  I am currently trying to loose a little extra flub to increase our chances of conceiving - though I am none too hopeful about seeing any weight loss results as my body chemistry allows me to gain strength and muscle mass but rarely allows me to drop any pounds!

Baby dust to all of us 'chubby' girls - and to everyone else who is TTC

It seems like you can only access the smiley faces when you are starting a new thread/topic under a particular board...I guess if you are commenting on an 'original' you just have to be low tech and use your parenthesis and colon keys Wink

Glad to see you again Smile Let me know how you like the water classes, I have been looking into signing up for one myself.

i'm kristal (as you know:) 29 yrs old, 213 lbs, have lost 14 lbs. started sz 22, down to a 16/18 depending on the brand.
on cd4 of my 14th month ttc. in a couple weeks will have my first iui and am very nervous. do any of you know much about iui's?
today for the 4rth we are going to my sister's. i am taking a package of hebrew national brand hot dog franks. they are only 40 cal each. i'm gonna have 3 of them grilled, no buns. and lots of fruit and veggies. i really wanna lose atleast 6 lbs before the iui. my dh and i have been doing my one mile dvd work out together this week and it's really upped his desire to bd!!! it's really fun to work out in our living room together too!!
well ladies, let's keep posting on chub club. we can support eachother!! maybe when we are all fat and happy because we are pregnant, we can still share tips on staying healthy for the baby. a concern i have is that when i finally do conceive, i will be one of those fluffy girls you see that noone knows if they are fat or pregnant!! ahhh!!!

Nice to see you!
I've seen those hebrew national brand hot dogs and the ingredients are actually food, not chemicals (if they are the same ones) Plus I think healthier because they are kosher (??) and use meat from the front half of the animal (I think anyways) so would maybe be a better choice for mee too!
We had Canada Day on last Wed and were at a bbq and DS uncle had reg hot dog, Angus beef hotdags, hamburgers, sausase and pig tails (eww)! It was an insane amt of food but luckly lots of veggies and watermelon (yum)
Have fun at your BBQ!

Kristal~

I'm so happy everyone made it to the new site!! Happy 4th of July Smile

You are stronger willed than I am about the buns...I cannot live my life without bread! I know its horrible for me, but I have tried to cut it out of my life in the past, and it just doesn't work for me...I got a Williams and Sonoma cookbook for healthy meals, once I start trying out the meals I'll post some recipes

My name is Haley, I am 30 years old. I weigh 215 lbs, recently lost 5 lbs. I have been ttc #2 for 4 months now on femara, metformin, and hcg shots. I am trying to lose some weight, but not really following a diet plan yet. I am thinking of going on my 1400 cal diet again and exercising to my walk at home dvd (the same one as Kristal does). I don't really have any good recipes so please share some!

Meagan~ I read you were making suggestions about the format of the site and was wondering if you could ask about a comment button at the bottom of the page as well as the top? Cuz when you scroll all the way down to read everything then scroll all the way back up to comment.... Or back a "go up" button at the bottom to save scrolling? What do you think?
