Comments regarding DW's diet changes-I went mostly vegetarian with only white meat occasionally (once a week or every two weeks). I am breastfeeding so I stayed in the upper limits for calories, was usually around 40g for protein but almost always at 60g or slightly over for fat. I had a really hard time staying low on fat without losing too much weight. I always delayed breakfast and had three meals a day with no snacking. I often worked dessert into my totals for the day.

We accidentally had two attempts. I didn't include exercise which I know can really help a sway.Things worth mentioning:I was breastfeeding and just had cycles return at 27 months pp.Last edited by ThinkingofPink; July 27th, 2017 at 04:10 PM.
