our doctor advised me to lose weight, saying it could help, but didn't refrain from going ahead and offering treatment.

We stopped taking Clomid after just a few months, and decided to adopt our first child.

Now I have been trying to get healthy in preperation for being a mom, and I have lost about 15 pounds (very slowly, haven't started exercising yet) through a popular weight-loss program.

I have managed to get pregnant (surprise!), although it seems like it will end in early miscarriage, but I did want to say I did not realize that little bit of weight loss might kick my ovulation back in...!

But I have to say, when you are starting fertility treatments, and you are all anxious and depressed (plus hormones can make you gain weight anyway, right?) I can't think of a worse time to be advised to lose weight! Like I hadn't been trying before you told me that, doc!
