Drugs and stuff

As some of you may know, I recently had a doctor's appointment, consisting of TWO ultrasounds, and a follow-up discussion about the next step. The first good news is that I have NO cysts, and everything looks good in there. My doc offered me Clomid, which I politely declined for now. But, she said she wants to try Metformin, which I agreed to. It has been 3 days, and so far I feel good. Supposedly, It will help regulate my cycles, and also help me lose weight.
We are sticking to our original plan, of me continuing to work on weight loss, but we aren't trying to avoid pregnancy either. If the Metformin helps get me pregnant now, that is great!
I really need to get back on the boat with WW. I have been maintaining my loss, and people have been commenting on how great I look. I've still been killing it at the gym, but I need to get back into the healthy eating. Anyone got some motivation I can borrow?

Progress....

So, I have yet to buy a digital camera, so no pics yet, but I did want to post a weight update. I am officially down 10 lbs since starting weight watchers! I have been working my ass off at the gym, and it's paying off. I finally have a routine down, and it's working pretty well. I can feel it in my posture, and the strength in my legs. I officially need a new pair of work pants, as I have run out of holes on my belt.
WW has been going ok. I don't enter my points every day like I should, but I have been staying under my limit. I'm not sure if I will keep the online membership, or just do it on my own with a points calculator.
I got really excited this morning thinking about how I am just 38 lbs away from my next goal. I lost the first 30 lbs, and I want to lose 80 more. I have decided to break that down into losing 40 lbs, then 40 more. I would like to have this done by the end of the year, and after I drop the first 40, I will consider starting to try for a baby...
