Just that really
Have been on the diet for nearly 12 weeks
Didn't get pregnant this month
So soonest I can be pregnant is next month obviously so that means longer on the diet
And he has now said he's had enough

Posted too soon

So yeah he has said he's had enough
He does most of the cooking so has been eating mostly veg meals and it's apparently making him lethargic and bloated etc

It's causing rows, im just bloody hungry, even tho at top limits
Can't enjoy the takeaways etc that we used to
Which I can deal with because I know it's not forever and will be worth it (hopefully)

So I don't know what to do???

Keep swaying and cook my own meals?

(He isn't bothered about gender of kids etc) I think it all boils down to this! I'm the one who wants to sway as I'm the one desperate for a girl

Cook the meals and then just eat the vegetable sides. I cook my family separate from the way I eat, because they just simply wouldn't eat the way I do.

It's just so hard as I don't cook!
I'm so bad!
Have had a chat and said we can go back to having our old meals and I just won't have the meat!
Feel bad as I've pretty much had 3 days off and eaten so badly... hope it hasn't ruined everything
Back on it tomorrow!!

Well, of course hubbies do not need to do LE Diet but it makes it much more of a challenge when he's cooking (seriously, where do you ladies find these guys! I want one)

What I did was I would make normal meals, and then I'd just skip the meat. So I'd make something like chicken, broccoli, and rice, and have the broc and rice, and skip the chicken.

Another solution (for things like bolognese and takeaways) are having a small portion. You can have meat, it just needs to be a smallish portion, so if you wanted a curry for example, and he wants a beef one and you can't get a vegetarian portion, it's still ok, just have a smaller amount of meat. A piece or two. You'd still be in limits for the day.

Please don't worry about the days off, you needed them. Just regroup and do the best you can. All you really need to do is eat differently from when you got boys. I had to make a diet because people wanted me to, but that's really the key!

Thanks for all the replies

Haha he absolutely loves it!
It de stresses him and makes him happy
Me on the other hand, I loathe cooking and the most I can do is put a pizza in

We are ganna try and go down the route of cooking our old meals and meskipping the meat!
Also having tiny portions of things like spag Bol etc!

Gosh I hope I get pregnant this month...
