when to attempt?

[mandyp85]

Hi all. I just have a quick question regarding when to make my attempt. I started my diet mid Jan and I have had a few problems of late which led to me losing quite a bit of weight in Feb during this time I was eating less overall as I was in a bad place so had little appetite. will the fact that I lost weight and was suffering emotionally in Feb benefit my sway now? my worry is that I am now eating better and am concerned this will go against my sway. I feel stuck as to what to do from here really. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks :-)

I have been skipping breakfast and have not been snacking at all since I started my diet.

You should be fine to attempt now if you are still skipping breakfast and not snacking. I would try and stay within the limits, and you should be fine.

When you say you lost a lot of weight, what is your BMI now? Do you know if you are still ovulating at this current weight?

I just fear that on some days I have been very lax and have gone over the limits, would that have much of an affect on my overall sway? I went down from nearly 12 stone to 10 and a half in around 6 weeks. I was without a car so was walking everywhere which is why I lost the weight. I do not know my bmi but I feel it will be in the higher healthy range. I have heard that having a young baby can help sway pink, do you know if this is true? Thank you for your advice :-) Xxx

Great job with the weight loss! Since you could still have some weight to spare, I would stay strict on the diet and continue with the exercise. This will help your sway.

Having a young child can allow for being sleep deprived, which can sway pink.

Having an attempt now would be good, since you don't know how long it will take to conceive, and you have room to keep losing weight and getting stricter with the diet.

FX for you!!

Agree with XX's great advice!

Thank you so much, I was very worried that I may have ruined my entire sway by not being entirely strict and was concerned about making an attempt this month on that basis, I thought I may have had to put my attempt off on the slim chance I do get caught straight away and instead start all over again so I'm relieved that's not the case. Thank you very much for your help :-)

It may help and I would have you TTC straight away now anyway because you're going to end up losing too much weight and stopping ovulation.

Good luck and I hope things are looking up for you now.

Thank you for taking the time to reply atomic. That was my worry also, I am not exercising currently and as you have suggested that I ttc now would you advise adding it back in? Or just trying to maintain my current weight? Thank you, it was a hard time but things are on the up now :-)

It's a great sway tactic, but if you stop ovulating, you won't be able to TTC anyway. :) use your best judgement.
