Morning everyone

Just started my morning with a bowl of cornflakes, still got a yoghurt, a slice of toast and a banana to go yet lol. Then I think I might have another ham, cheese, tomato and cucumber pitta for lunch and a weight watchers salmon risotto meal tonight. I'll probably throw in some cherries and maybe a bag of wotsits too during the day

Chris is going to take my weight watchers scales back for me at some point today and get me the other ones I'd spotted ... they're £4 more expensive, but the only bad reviews I can see on them is people moaning about having to tap them to switch them on

I've been looking at hotels in Turkey for next year, there's one that's about £550 each, self catering or half board are the same price and we could go in September, or we could go back to the hotel we went to in 2009 for about £350 each. The one for £550 has just had a major refurb and looks absolutely amazing, and the other one is a bit more downscale but we know the area, we liked the hotel and had a brill time while we were there. So just got to figure out which one to go for lol

Hope everyone is ok, sorry to ramble on this morning, I'm on a bit of a high, despite being a bit stressed about af

I'm being a bit of a domestic goddess (yeah right ) this afternoon

I'm baking, have got a load of plain scones in the oven at the moment and then going to do some plain ones when Chris gets back from town with the sultanas etc

Ohhhhh and we've chosen a hotel for next year

It's a bit more expensive than last time we went, but it's right down on the sea front, not far from the shopping centre, ahhhhh I wish the 2012 prices would come out now so I can get booked

Hi Ladies

I've been for my weigh in and I've lost 1.5lb. I was hoping for more but its a loss so thats great!

I was in the gym at half 8 this morning so I got to do a 'last chance workout' (like on the biggest loser!).

I thought I might have lost nearly 3 but it wasn't meant to be this week. I'm not too convinced though, they had 2 sets of scales this week as there was a lot there, so maybe I was weighed on the other scales last week? I'll have to see what happens next week.

I haven't been able to get any skinny water dilute yet, so I've done the next best thing and got 2 bags of lemons, so I will be doing the lemon and water thing every morning!

Just need to jump on DH when he comes home from work for a little more exercise!!

Hope you all get great results this week

 

[EmmyReece]

that's a good loss hun and in the right direction

 

[Love2bamummy]

OMG I've just had the lemon and water thing! Bleedin hell thats keen!

No wonder they tell you to do it first thing on a morning, it'd certainly wake you up!

Just waiting for the waterfall now! lol

 

[EmmyReece]

the first time I did it, it made me gag, so I had to put the juice of a full lemon in

I've got my new scales and they're fab, they've given me a different weight that the weight watchers ones did last night, but I've still updated my ticker. Just got to resist the temptation of weighing myself everytime I go into the bathroom

Hi ladies I was wondering if i could join you, I know this is in the LTTTC and I have only been trying for 5 months, (feels like quite along time to me allready!!)

my name is Amy and I am english but living in Sweden with my swedish OH... on a side not I am so envious of you all getting to watch OBEM, we dont get it over here and the catchup TV doesnt work outside the UK, probably for the best tho because i just end up in floods of tears when I watch birth programes, so does my OH (makes me cry even more!) Im 26 and my OH is 34. I am 5 foot 4 inches and 227 pounds (bmi 39) I have tried diets before but actually I have never really had a reason to drive me enough to stick to it, I'm lucky that my OH loves my curves and I am healthy despite my extra weight. All I have ever wanted to be is a mum, and that is reason enough for me to really really try to lose weight, I know it will be healthier for me and a baby if I was lighter and also that if i need to seek medical help I will need a lower BMI.

My aim is ultimatly to be 146 pounds (bmi 25) I'd love to be 177(bmi30) by sept 2011 (our 1 year aniversery of ttc) that is 7 pounds a month, I hope I can do it!!!

My diet starts now, so i'll weigh in on a monday evening, my plan is walking everywhere, lots of water and lots of fruit veg + counting those lovely calories.

I had a couple of questions, does anyone know how much dieting effects your chances of conceiving negativly, I asume its very hard to conceive whilst dieting also does anyone know if dieting will change my cycle?

So lovley to (cyber) meet you ladies, good luck, shed a tear for me next time you see OBEM! good luck you are doing so well allready its so inspiring for me

Welcome Lovie, good luck on your weight loss journey. I think that dieting only makes a difference to your cycle in a bad way if you consume too few calories (I've heard LL can stop your periods). In a positive way you'll probably be eating more fruit and veg and I read on one of the threads that for each 1 BMI point you lose your fertility increases 4%.

Morning girls.

Meant to get weighted this aft but dont think I am gonna bother. SW just isnt working for me anymore. I think I may try cambrige.

I don't know this diet. Good luck if you decide to change 4magpies

Just need to jump on DH when he comes home from work for a little more exercise!!

DH wanted to wait as he thought his SC could improve if we didn't So I found him something online to show that we should dtd every other day (we always used to during fertile time and ov but since the FS he thought he shouldn't). Now he's got man flu Hope he feels better in the next couple of days, my eggs won't wait!!!

YAYYYYYYYYYY for holidays. We were going to book one for this year but now we are trying to get the money together for IVF we've had to knock the idea on the head

Turkey will be a nice reward for all your hard work on the diet.

Chris has changed his mind

He wants to go back to the hotel we went to in June 2009

https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Hotel...aris_Mugla_Province_Turkish_Aegean_Coast.html

I'm going to need to nip into the travel agents and see what they say about amending bookings, because what I might do is get it booked and then if we have a babba or I get my bfp before December amend it to include the baby. Just got to get the bfp now

 

[lovie]

Hi all Just thaught id let you all know how day 1 of my diet went, it was really easy as my OH gave us both food poisening

thank you trasky for the info about how cycles can change, I really hope mine stays the same.... well infact I hope it stops alltogether to let a little baby grow.. but if not at least stay the same!

well dont on your weight loss love2bmummy! im having to stop myself weighing allready, when i have dieted before i found it helpfull to use the scales in the chemist and have none at home, but now I live in sweden i cant find anywhere that has one.

emmy your holiday sounds perfect, I bet you cant wait! I wish i was booking a break in the sun! im going away sking in 2 weeks but i cant ski so that will be ummm interesting.

happy healy eating all, amy

 

[twinkle1975]

Oh no food poisoning!! Hope you're feeling better soon xxx

 

[EmmyReece]

I'd love to go skiing too lovie ... but last I went on a dry slope, I fell on my backside and broke my thumb

Really hope you feel better soon

 

[lovie]

oh no Emmy I hope your thumb got better! everyone in my family can ski even my 7 year old sister, maybe i will just stay at the cabin and make low calorie dinners for everyone! im starting to feel abit better, my OH is being very dramatic about having food poisening he asked me if I thaught he should go to hospital "no!" lol

 

[EmmyReece]

my fella would probably be the same ...

it was a school trip, we'd gone to an activity centre for a weekend lol. me and school trips never mixed, on the same trip we'd done quad biking, and I was the only one who crashed their quad (sending me flying over the bars) ... oh and the time we went to London and I almost got knocked down by a big red bus that ran a red light ... and then there was the time when we had to go to an army thing as part of careers week and me being clumsy, when we did the assault course thing, I fell from the 10 ft wall and busted my ankle

 

[Tarkwa]

Ladies - I am EGGY! YAAAAAAAAY! I had some EWCM today so guess I am about to ovulate. I did an OPK (pic below) and I think I'm nearly there.

Welcome Lovie! I'm just about to have dinner so will do a proper post shortly.
