Replenishing my stocks & weighing in

I stopped in at my local Walgreens to buy two new bottles of prenatal vitamins and they wanted $15.55 for them when I can drive to the next town and get the same product for $8.44 at Walmart.  Needless to say, I made the drive. I feel like I'm definitely accomplishing something by trying to prepare my body for pregnancy.  I'm impatient to start "trying" for real, but at least I'm working towards the goal by getting out to walk the dog on a more regular basis and taking my vitamins.  I'm considered obese by the BMI scale, so I'm trying to get my weight into a more favorable range for conception.  The ideal pregnancy BMI, according to many reputable sources, is 20-25.  My BMI is 33.  Yikes.  I definitely have my work cut out for me, but my target weight is a number on the scale I haven't seen in a decade, so I doubt I'll make the ideal BMI grade.  But any little bit is bound to help, so I'll keep trying to lower my weight before we start trying to make a baby.  

I bought a scale today and when I was getting out of the car, my husband came outside to greet me and help me carry things into the house.  He spotted the scale tucked under my arm and jokingly said, "I don't want one of those evil things in my house."  Sorry, Honey, but it has to be done.  I need to track my progress between now and May.
