Yes

DIET
Did you follow a diet plan?

Yes

If yes to diet, which one did you most follow?

• LE(Low Everything)

Comments regarding DW's diet changes-

I followed LE for 13 weeks in total and lost a lot of weight. I was so good and although I had a few cheats my eating habbits have dramatically changed. I only drunk 2-3 cups peppermint tea a day, diet soda and the odd coffee

If diet was used, length of time before attempt?

13 weeks

Did you skip breakfast regularly?

Yes

Did DH change his diet with you?

No

Comments regarding DH's diet-

he ate less meat in general as ther was not as much in the house but we didn't think it was too important he changed his whole diet

DId you consume alcohol?

• A couple of drinks per week

DId you try to limit caffeine?

Yes, I had 1 drink per day

Any Diet Details?

I cut out meat completely had the odd cheat at unavoidable bbqs etc but overall I found the diet pretty easy to follow. I ate 2 meals a day and I lost 30lbs in total

Any Diet Comments/Additional Info?

I mainly stuck to iceberg lettuce, mushrooms, crackers and cheese. peeled cucumber, LE soups, I ate a lot of pasta at the start but changed it too wholewheat after a few weeks as I wasn't loosing weight. I ate strawberries or grapes for fruit and a greek yoghurt for protein.

WEIGHT AND EXERCISE
What did you weigh/BMI do leading up to O?

I was 221lbs and my BMI was 36, just before ovulation I weighed 190lbs (I lost 1/2 a stone in the week of ovulation alone) and my bmi was 30

Any Weight/Exercise related additional info/comments?

Yes my weight loss was huge for me, due to steroids and other meds I struggle to loose weight at all so LE was perfect for me. I started swimming 5-6 times a week and worked my way up to doing 80 lengths a time. I quit about a month before our attempt and changed to cardio instead as I was worried about the chlorine affecting my PH.

First Quarter

Did you use any Old Wives Tales?

I have a little dress under my bed and a wooden spoon with a pink bow tied round it under my bed too.

Things that make me feel great about my sway:

Im so chuffed with my sway, the fact I lost so much weight, used clomid, fell pregnant first cycle after coming off BCP. We must have definitely lowered hubbys sperm count.

Things that make me nervous about my sway:

I don't know exactly when I ovulated and also I had a few cheats, also I struggle to keep my blood sugar low (even when I hardly eat anything) Im sure blood sugar has loads to do with swaying and this could be my breaking issue.

Things worth mentioning:

There is no perfect sway, just do your best and be happy with that, you cant do any more.
