So far so good!

Just about to head into week three of sway prep and feeling positive about the whole thing! LE diet going well even with a few cheats. Sticking to limits without stressing about anything else is working well for DH and myself and we are both losing bit of weight already! I've managed the exercise at least 5 nights out of 7 and feel good for it. The vitex is ordered and had first dose of Chitosan today so heading in the right direction! Buying a personalised sway plan has been worth every penny already as takes a lot of the stress away!!

Just thought would share my (so far) positivity about whole thing!

Good for you! Getting used to your sway is at least half the battle. When will you start TTC?

December is the plan! Seems like ages away but suppose it's not really! What about you?

Hey I have added two friends to myfitnesspal and it totally keeps you motivated as you see the others logging their exercise! If anyone else wants to keep each other right my username is Thethomsons. I'm also friends with littlesting and zippy455! Come join us and let's help each other do our 6 days x 60! Def keeps you motivated knowing you are not alone and when you see others have done it it def spurs you on X

Lovely to see you doing well! So far my first three weeks have been pretty well too. One cheat (a bit of chicken in a salad), and one week with just 5 days of cardio, due to an extreme cold.

I am not on Fitnesspal, in order to keep my inner Martha at bay... I just have a countdown calendar that I check off every day, but no charting or weighing. I have a list of meals (I made this prior to my sway) that I'm allowed and sticking to them is pretty easy so far. I might get bored in a couple of weeks, but keeping my options limited also makes it easier. In a way I like the two meals thing, cause I only have to think about food twice a day, and not worry about snacks etc...

I will be trying in Dec too! I am so anxious to start walking then running again but I had a minor operation on my foot 12 days ago. It seemed to be healing well but I just took out the stitches and now it's worse again, sigh. So I may look into swimming since I've done that before with injuries, just need to find a lap pool nearby. Unfortunately I think I will have to drive aways bc I'm in a rural area.

At least I have been doing well with the diet! I did have some meat-inclusive Indian food (it's rare that I'm in a city) but other days I've been quite strict. For me it's the first 4 days or so of eating less so my stomach shrinks that is the hump, which I'm just over now. I can probably stand to lose up to 20 lbs by conception time. My body likes to have a few extra lbs over Winter so I'm fighting my natural tendencies.
