The Dieting for fertility reasons thread :-)

[4magpies]

Thanks girls.....

I have had a lap before AQ, but just exploratory, guessing it will take me longer to recover this time.

A loss is better than a gain babes. I am mega comfort eating this week. Need to stop, doesnt help that I have got a constant migrane either really. Pfft.

I would like to lose 2lbs, but I think I am gonna change my WI in day, to maybe a thursday? I dunno.

Got weighed and i have lost 1LB! Gutted!
Tried so hard all wk even tho i was so low and could of murdered a load of junk food!!
AF is due today though and i do feel mega bloated and grouchy so hoping next wk will show a decent loss. My goal for next wk is to lose 4LB. What is everyone's goal for next WI? xxx

I'm so sad, I only lost 1 lb also...It will take me two years to get to my goal at this rate!!! My husband tried to make me feel better and say it was b/c my breasts were engorged with milk but I dunno....

but I guess loss is better than nothing???

Magpies- i would be happy with a 1lb loss if i had been comfort eating but i have been very strict all wk hun... must be cos AF is due. Hope to see the effort i have put in reflected on next wk's WI...

SIEGAL- You have just had a baby so give yourself a break! i am only so obsessed with my weight loss due to the fact its the only way i will ever have a chance of becoming pregnant as i wont be allowed IVF without getting my BMI to 30 and below...


Hi to everyone else. I have had a crappy day on the diet... had 2 slices toast for brekky with scraping lemon curd. Lunch was fine and just ate a snickers bar and some haribo sweets... feeling mega shattered due to antibiotics and AF being due so craved sweets an gave in. Il be back to plan tomorrow. Needed a day off. Everything is pissing me off right now xxx

You may show a bigger loss next weigh in, AF has a tendency to retain a lot of water weight before she shows.

Afm I Felt better yesterday so went to the gym and now I feel even sicker than before. AF is due sometime in the next few days so I'm not excited for mondays weigh in.

So I felt well enough to journey to the gym again yesterday and now I have no voice this morning.
I think its the sauna. I am also broke out all over my forehead because af is coming.

 

[africaqueen]

Hi girls

Longtobeamum- Awww hope your back feels better soon! nothing worse than a bad back. I was laid up for almost a yr with a slipped disc and sciatica and OUCH! The best tip i was given is to keep active even tho it hurts like a mother x

Pinkee- Hope u feel better soon and im sure your skin with clear up when af shows x

Hello to everyone else

Well girls i have been very naughty today... went for chinese with dh after work and did not stick to plan at all... lol. Really enjoyed it tho and i did have a diet pepsi! ha.
We also had a cream bun with our cuppa before... eeek. Deffo back on plan tomorrow tho because.. came home to a letter from the IVF clinic and we have a appt on 19th april with one of the top consultants!! I am so over the moon i could cry.
Really didnt expect a appt to come thru so fast! got plenty of time to lose this weight now and need to knuckle down and eat lots of speed foods and get going the gym more reg! whoop whoop!! I have a lot of sadness at the moment but today i am on cloud nine getting this appt through xxx

 

[longtobeamum]

Hi all

Wow, a lot has gone on in the last few days - well done everyone on your losses, if you didnt have a loss then hey ho, we're not perfect - heres to next week!

Magpies - sorry for the cancellation of your lap

It was a chemical afterall - all trace of bfp vanished within 3 days - which is fine


But hey a half pregnancy is halfway right girls!!!

If i was religious (im not - no offence to anyone who is) I'd wonder if the whole ordeal was sent to try me......I now no longer trust pregnancy tests along with symptoms lol - i hereby officially give up ttc until ivf -
And feel quite good about it!! Just gotta make sure i dont put that weight back on ha ha!! (ive eaten like a pig this week)

Tomorrow i become good again.

Sorry if i didnt mention you in my post - there was so many people i wanted to comment to it overwhelmed me lol - but love to all!!!

 

[africaqueen]

MP- Glad u are feeling ok about everything and u will soon get that BFP either naturally or with IVF

Hope everyone else is doing ok??

I have had a tough day with my mum and my dad being stressed an upset over it all.
Not been a great diet day but tried.
Back on plan 100% tomorrow and hope to have 3lb off by Fri xxx

 

[Monsterpops]

Thanks AQ - Stress and upset can't be helping you much - stay strong sweetie xxx

-3.5 pounds this week!
My doctor prescribed me clomid, I'm half tempted to go a month before starting it and get some more weight down. But not sure on what to do yet. :/

Pinkee, I had Clomid for 6 months, and I wish I'd have waited and lost a bit of weight first, and I would always advise people to do the same xx

 

[longtobeamum]

2lb loss for me ladies xxx

 

[4magpies]

Well done girls.

I still havent lost anything. Lol. I have just felt so rubbish. Keep getting headaches and when I have one I crave sugar.
