Desperate for a second child but weight holding me back

[Meader]

I had my son 3 years ago, before this I was very active and a healthy weight, but due to birth complications I am now 3 stone overweight, don't have time to get to a gym and have just lost all motivation. But I am now wanting to have another child but due to my weight gain my periods have stopped and so I am desperate to get back to a healthy weight and to help my body to hopefully get things on track again.

Hi Meader,

Welcome to the Weight loss NHS forum. Have you read our Welcome Newbie post yet? It's a good place to start to see the kind of things that other members have found helpful, and it's in the Pinned posts area if you'd like to take a look - right-hand-side of the homepage, or at the bottom of the screen if you're accessing via a mobile device.

Do join in with any of the Challenges going on in the forum, and maybe join us for tomorrow's Monday group weigh-in, if the idea of a weekly weigh-in group appeals. It's a supportive and friendly group, and you'd be very welcome to join us if you want to. I'll be posting the sessions tomorrow - and we always put a link to the latest thread in the Events section - below the Pinned posts.

Wishing you success with your goals, and I hope you have a great week. The NHS 12 week plan is a really good one, so I'd definitely recommend taking a look at that.
