The girl suffered from polycystic ovary syndrome, which causes weight gain and infertility. And her husband was just fat – with no medical excuses.
No matter how much you weigh, you would be a good person. Truth as it is. So not too skinny Kelly and Justin found each other. Fell in love, got married and decided it was time to have kids. But here it turned out that weight matters. At 24, Kelly weighed 165 kilograms. True, not because (or not only because) that she ate a lot. The girl suffered from polycystic ovary syndrome, a disorder that causes weight gain. Justin didn’t have any syndrome, he was just quite chubby. Good appetite.
– I’ve always been complete. And in high school, the weight began to grow very quickly. Classmates mocked me, I seized stress – and got fat even faster, – said Kelly.
As doctors have been saying for a long time, being overweight is very harmful to fertility – both male and female. The wider the waist, the harder it is to get pregnant. All hormones. In general, the Havel spouses had a choice: either to lose weight, or to forget about the children. They chose the former.
Kelly was the first to get down to business.
– I understood that if I want to give birth, I have to lose weight. That became my motivation, ”she said.
The gym five times a week, a healthy diet, a minimum of sugar – these are its victims.
– It was incredibly difficult to give up sweets. My body was screaming, “Give me sugar!” I had to reprogram my brain in order to accustom myself to healthy food, – said Kelly.
The girl refused energy drinks and sweets for breakfast in favor of black coffee, scrambled eggs from some proteins and turkey. She changed her leisure time: instead of cinema and shopping, Kelly went for a walk, on hikes, and did physical education.
Is it trite? Yes, but it works! And in the case of Kelly, it worked so well that her husband was inspired by the example of his wife. And he also began to lose weight.
Two years passed in this way. For two, the couple dropped 146 kilos. Just think – this is the weight of two quite decent-sized men!
But pregnancy still did not come. Kelly decided to see a doctor. She was prescribed fertility drugs. She went to the pharmacy, bought medicine, and along with the pregnancy test. And it turned out that Kelly had wasted money on the pills. The test showed the long-awaited two stripes. In due time, the couple had a girl – McKenna Rae.
– It looked like a miracle! We conceived a daughter without medication, despite the fact that the chances were very small, – said Kelly. – Now I look at our daughter every day. She is the best reminder of what Justin and I have been able to achieve.
Well, a little bonus. Now Kelly can shop for clothes without any problems. Any store has a suitable size. And I gained strength. If earlier she was tired while walking from the parking lot to the doors, now there is a lot of energy. Well, how could it be otherwise? After all, she has a small child.
