First time posting, any advice on how to prepare my body for pregnancy?

I am a 32yoF, 169lbs with a goal weight of 120lbs. I'm trying to walk more and at least get 10k steps in a day and I have a stationary bike that I use 3-4x a week for about 20mins.

After a long time lurker of this subreddit, the common answer to losing weight is watching what you eat, calories, etc.

Redditors who've struggled with their weight, how did you prepare your body for pregnancy? My SO and I are considering trying to have kids and I know I'm not at my goal weight but would really like to make some progress before actually getting pregnant.

Any good habits to get hooked on? Also, calorie counting is so tedious since I feel like I have to weigh everything I eat, any tips to over come that? I feel like I'm more likely to be lazy and eat whatever when I think about how much time I have to weigh everything I cook and eat.

Also, how do you not get down on yourself? I feel like lately seeing myself in recent pictures have been hard and I've been feeling really ugly. I want to be healthy and happy with my body before we have kids and also be able to sustain that lifestyle even after having kids.
