Im getting married in October and we are looking to start ttc within about six months of the wedding. Im not new to my PCOS diagnosis but Im finally ready to deal with it. What are some good steps to prepare my body for this? So far I will be taking met, synthroid, and trying to lose about thirty or more pounds (ideally Id like to lose all the weight Ive got to which is 80 total but Im trying to be realistic)

Are you ovulating? Me and my beau decided to have a baby next year and in preparation, I started charting to see if I was O'ing although I have a cycle every month. I've learned a lot from it too. I'm also losing weight.

If you're on BCP, your chances of getting a BFP are higher the 1st couple months off the pill. You should start taking at least 0.4mg of folic acid if you're not already... either on its own or in a multivitamin (I take prenatals). It's recommended that you start taking it for 3 months prior to ttc.
I think your goal of 30lbs is fine even though you want to lose more. Just losing 10% of your weight can do great things for your health.
