Hi all. My info meeting with the nurse and doctor to discuss my start date and full procedure is at the clinic is next week. Start date should be end of May ish. Ive been training and dieting but my BMI is 30.4. Do they weigh you at this meeting and how strict are they.
Hi Tina112 i was really fortunate with my clinic they didn’t really weigh me at all! but I told them the truth that I wasn’t where I needed to be and they just said make sure you are before your transfer which i did as my wife did the egg collection and was below 30 BMI!! It all depends on the clinic which doesn’t really help so sorry I’m not much help good luck with everything xxx
Fantastic though well done you! I have started my weight journey again as we have recently had a miscarriage from our first round of ivf so I would love to get to my Overall target I’m glad I can reassure you a little lovely xxx
They may have to weigh you to understand what meds to give you. However our BMI is the same. I refused to let them weigh me again as it was a demeaning process to which I felt un-human. I’m not fat, I’m beautiful!
I got refused by the NHS because I was literally only two kilos overweight! I’m not usually a large person, but the eight month roller coaster on Clomid sucked and was stressful.
Be you! Be Beautiful! Infertility doesn’t discriminate!
Hi thank you for responding. I am lucky enough to live in Wales so I am going through the NHS on my own. The last 12 months of tests and loosing my results etc has made the process so much longer than it needed to be so i think i gave up worrying until i got a call from the clinic to say everything was at the next stage. I have been eating so healthy, given up all alcohol etc.. but i have started training and I think this is why the weight isn't shifting as quick as it should be.
I still have a month till i start any meds so fingers crossed I will be on target by then.
