Losing Weight While TTC

[Ali33]

He said I text you 3 times. He knows my reception is sketchy here. He should have called the home phone. I was not a happy camper. I am going to make some for dinner. Asked him to pick up some bread when he gets home. We will see how that works out lol..

Do you think I should use NPC after confirmed ovulation? I am not sure if I should or not?

 

[krissie328]

Do you suspect you have low progesterone?

Honestly, it's pretty harmless so it wouldn't hurt anything if you decided to.

I weighed myself this morning and I'm not down as much as I had wanted. I guess that's what happens when I make bad choxies half the time.

 

[Ali33]

Well I thought maybe that's why I didn't ovulate when I should have last month. I don't know.. I know it won't hurt but in the event I get a bfp I know I will have to keep taking it. Maybe I will leave it alone this month.

I am not down as much as I wanted but that is partly because I lost 7 lbs that I gained and 3 or 4 after so I am really only counting it as a 3 to 4 lb loss. Technically I lost so far like 11 but I only count from my lowest weight previously.

I did 80 squats yesterday and I can hardly sit down. My legs are on fire!!!

 

[Ali33]

Ok so I just weighed myself and officially in 21 days I am down 12.4 lbs but only counting it as a 5 lb loss overall. I am excited for the new week! Don't want to gain 7 lbs I have to bust my butt to lose all over again.

 

[krissie328]

80 squats! That's impressive.

Yeah, I am down about 5-6 for the 3 weeks. Which I guess is a healthy rate of loss.

I have just over 4 weeks until my event. I doubt I will get under 200 since that's 15 lbs. But I am hoping to get as close as possible!

 

[Ali33]

I have no doubt you can do it. It will just take discipline and dedication. I am worried about working with the trainer. I can't cheat lol

 

[krissie328]

Yea, I think it will be great!

I agree it's gonna take a lot of dedication. I'm trying really hard because I have goals! Lol.

So what's for dinner? I'm thinking of getting some steak and grilling that up. Probably will have green beans on the side. Or maybe a side salad if I get enough motivation to go to two stores.

 

[Ali33]

I am making chicken enchiladas with beans. I am fixin to go to the store in just a bit. Don't have much to get though thankfully. I am going to make that peppers and turkey sausage recipe for breakfast tomorrow. Looks so good!

 

[krissie328]

That did look really good. I was thinking of doing it with some of the mini peppers and a ground sausage.

 

[Ali33]

That would be yummy too. Now I can't wait for tomorrow's breakfast lol

 

[Ali33]

I am not ready for Monday y'all. I didn't get as much done as I wanted to this weekend. I am excited for a 3 day weekend though. Do y'all have any plans for the 4th? We are going to go to his mom's and grill and set off fireworks. That should be fun..

 

[krissie328]

Mỹ son's bday is the 3rd so we are having a get together on Sunday. My inlaws will be down so that's pretty much all.

 

[Ali33]

That will be fun. Were you able to get his pictures this weekend?

 

[todmommy4568]

Wow you ladies were busy! Sounds like you had some good losses!

I have lost 3 pounds since last week, well overall since my weight last week was the same as my starting weight. We are quitting smoking for the billionth time starting today so hopefully I don't snack like crazy, I bought some gum this morning to try and fight the munchies. I don't know how I even call it quitting anymore lol it's more like quit for 3 days smoke for 2 quit for 3 smoke for 2 and so on lol I'm like a half time smoker so stupid The diet is strong so far today had eggs and salsa for breakfast and making an enchilada casserole for lunch. I will still have 17 points after lunch though that's crazy!

 

[krissie328]

Tod- good luck with quitting. It's so hard!

Ali- we did get some pics. Not the one I wanted but I just pick the one I like the best.

My 3 week loss was 5 lbs.

 

[krissie328]

Before and after pics.

 

[krissie328]

I am going to to challenge myself for another 4 weeks. I'm hoping to lost 10 lbs and get down to 205 in that time. Which is very reasonable I think. As long as I stay on track.

 

[todmommy4568]

10 pounds in 4 weeks should definitely be manageable! I can tell a difference in your pics! Not too much but it's there for sure!

 

[Ali33]

Quitting will be hard but it will be so good for you! I wish Justin would quit as I can't stand it. He doesn't do it around me or in the house though. I have had chronic bronchitis since I was a kid and it really aggravates it if I am around it.

I can definitely see a difference in the tummy area Krissie!! Great job! I will see if I can take some pics this morning.

I am still so sore. It is hard for me to sit. I literally have to just fall onto my chair, toilet, wherever I am sitting. I think I really overdid it going from like no squats to 80 in one day.

 

[todmommy4568]

Yea 80 squats is a ton! Yea I hate the smell and the way it makes me feel. The last time we quit we made it a month, why we started again is beyond me
