How much to lose?

How much weight should I lose before TTC pink?

I'm doing Slimming World and have been since February 2012 and lost 2.5 stone but I have gained 9lb since then So I'm trying to lose that again. Is that enough do you think?

[fish2012]

think it's useful to look at BMI chick you want to be at your lowest conception weight (what were you when you conceived your DD? ) as low as possiable without stopping you ovulate. So probably about a BMI of 17-18 is good xx

I've never been as low as that. I was about 13 stone with my dd. I am just under that now and losing more.

I'm not sure I agree with that entirely. For example, I was 95 or so conceiving my lasat son. Am I going to diet down to 90 to ensure getting a girl? NO WAY.

Its more about understanding the principles of the LE diet and how it is changing your body.

I have a thread called the le diet faq that I have a full explanation..I am on my kindle and can't post links. If you Google it, it will come up.

I was def not my lowest for my current swayed pregnancy but I was less than 100 pounds for my first ds and 110 for ds2
I lost less than 10 pounds for my sway :s time will tell if it worked

i was at my highest conception weight with this one but i did a strict le diet lost a lot weight in a short space of time and lost the weight purely through diet (a first for me)

I don't think there is a certain number or percentage for everyone...depends on a lot of factors, IMO.

exactly!!! Depends on a zillion different things!

Here is the link to the LE Diet FAQ, there is a thorough explanation in there and some otehr good stuff too http://genderdreaming.com/forum/tryi...-diet-faq.html

From my understanding it is all relative to you. For instance I am 30-40 lb's overweight right now and I believe as long as I continue to steadily lose weight then it is going to sway pink even if I ovulate after only having lost 10-20 lb's. It's just about making your body think that there aren't adequate resources to carry a boy. I may be way off but that's how I have taken it.
