Cinnamon, coffee and KY advice please x

Hey, I am due to have first attempt next month, I am overweight but have lost 19lb since starting LE diet am wondering is it worth me adding cinnamon for the last month before first attemp(assuming that I would fall first month, which I know is probably unlikely due to sway tactics).

Also I am doing intermittent fasting, is coffee ok inbetween all day? I am a big coffee drinker(wasn't with my boys) only asking because I have read it can raise blood sugar levels and I don't want to undo what I have done with the fasting.

One last question, I have brought some KY jelly(never used lubes of any kind with my 3 boys and fell pregnant first month all 3 times) is it worth adding? Was going to do that instead of antihistamines?


Thanks for your time ☺

If you have 30-50 lbs to lose I am fine with you adding in cinnamon. Ceylon cinnamon only (no cassia) 1/4 teaspoon (this is a very small amount, it is quite potent) from AF-O, and then drop to 1/8 teaspoon during the 2WW. After your BFP, wean down to dietary amounts only.

Yes, coffee is fine between meals, we have great results with that. It makes blood sugar go up for a short time but then over time actually improves your insulin response.

KY Jelly is fine if you want to use it, it may sway pink tho no jellies have gotten stellar results (appear to be about the same number of people getting girls with and without them.

Hey Atomic, thank you so much for your reply!

I have probably 25-30lbs to loose, so I may add that in then, last min but it could make the smallest of difference. Would you suggest adding to coffee? I may be being slow but what do you mean by dietary amounts after bfp?

Oh that's great about coffee ☺

Ah so jellies have no real backing, I may skip or perhaps try first month drop if no bfp?

Thanks again for your time and valuable knowledge!

However you can get it down.

Dietary amounts after BFP just means whatever you would normally have eaten.

Yes the jellies just didn't do anything and really cut odds of conception.

Thanks so much!

Also when is best to take, the cinnamon with food, after food, before food?

Thank you
