    PS - it actually explained this right in the essay itself.

    "PROTEINThis is not a supplement per se, but for blue swayers remember you are trying to up your protein intake. Protein is digested best when eaten in smallish amounts several times a day, because your body can only digest 30 grams or so at one meal. Break up your protein intake into several chunks and try to get as much in as you can."

    yes i saw this. but then thought, i can eat more than an OUNCE of protein and you know what. i converted ounces to grams (1oz = about 28grams). i just did weights. my bad, meat doesnt equal pure protein, there is a certain AMOUNT of protein in meat. i must have had on dumb jeans that day..sorry! but still your answer helped break things down more for me!!! sorry and thank you atomic!!! ;-)

    No, there are no dumb questions, there are only things that weren't explained clearly enough the first time. Every Q you guys ask is an opportunity for me to clarify! Thanks for your question!!!

    Hi Atomic,
    Sorry could not find thread on when to eat some of the supplements, I am taking a break at present as had chemical in April. i am taking FA, fish oil, zinc L-arginine everyday and EPO few days before ovulation and the BSD and COT drinks from AF to ovulation. Do I need to take a break with the fish oil, zinc, Larginine, after ovulation, as I am not attempting for a little while? or can I have them whole month through. Thanks.

    No, they are believed to be safe during pg altho I would ease off of the L-arg once I got a BFP.

    NEVER quit taking any vitamins cold turkey esp. when you're pregnant, just gradually reduce them over the course of a few weeks.

    Is there a certain fiber supplement that you recommend?
    I've kind of stalled on my weight loss and wonder if some fiber might help (plus, I'm getting clogged up and would like to rectify that situation!).

    Thanks!

    I used Chitosan - however I'm afraid it didn't help with the bunged up situation!

    Atomic said she'd used it very successfully as part of a weight loss plan in the past - but on the LE diet we're just not eating enough fat in the first place I don't think! However, still good for reducing nutrients even further.

    I did like the chitosan a lot and it DID help with being "bunged up".

    my thinking is, even tho we don't eat a lot of fat when TTC pink, we will be eating at least a bit here and there and plus it will help get rid of some of the fat soluble vitamins that are present in the fruits and veg we eat (the fat soluble vitamins are proven to raise testosterone)
