My husband had a big grill party for his birthday this weekend so too much fat, too much snacking and no exercise on Sunday. But I think I still stayed under for calories so overall I'm happy. Unfortunately I feel sick to my stomach so not up for exercising but hopefully tonight. I feel like everyone I see is pregnant or just had their third so I hope DH gets fully on board soon...

Hi! I'm ttc in september. I began the HE diet in January but then we moved and a bunch of other stressful stuff came up, and I just wanted to eat sweets. Lol
I just purchased a plan and I will begin it in June! I am hoping for a boy. I have one daughter who is a year old. Good luck everyone!
I love sweets rubygem. Obviously I haven't studied the boy diet but I guess the focus is on a high protein, vitamin rich, etc diet. I love sweets and think if you include a few healthier treats- homemade oatmeal raisin cookies filled with lots of oats, raisins, some applesauce instead of sugar, or whole wheat apple cake, etc that must be OK? I mean when TTC both boys I was eating so much yummy food, all the time. LOL. Welcome to the group!

I'd bet recipes designed for diabetics would be good if the focus is high protein. My mother in law is diabetic, lots of them are actually delicious, the recipes that is.
For me, my temp dropped again the last two days. Yay! I never thought I'd be happy to confirm I didn't ovulate lol We already have like 4 birthdays at the end of Feb...I wouldn't have been unhappy at a chance of a BFP this month, but at the same time I'd way rather wait until July/Aug and have a proper sway/summer baby.
unwirklich - I'm also trying to avoid a February birthday (Tons of those in my family, including myself). I will only attempt in June if I ovulate late. Currently set to ovulate in a couple weeks-ish which puts me at a 2/28/15 due date. Definitely going to put off if I ovulate on time!
Hah, that's my hubby's bday :) Feb seems overall a popular birth month, maybe cause people get in a baby makin mood in the spring. lol I'm waiting to see how bad this MC throws off my cycles, but I don't plan to try until end of July so we can have at least one kid with warm outdoor party weather. Gah, the waiting is evil though. I'm kind of impatient. I dunno if I'll successful make it to the end of July
I'm also getting excited to TTC but I would prefer a baby coming in April or later, and with my mom coming to visit for a few weeks and us going on holiday I won't be able to stick to the diet well enough to want to TTC. Plus DH still has to come around :D
Dropping in from June swayers.personal circumstances stopped us from TTC in June so it will be the end of august we will be TTC now. I haven't started my le diet yet.really need to start soon though.absolulty petrified at DTD when its time. I've been seeing so many family's around of 3 boys I'm scared I won't get my pink bundle. 😓my so is being really supportive.he will be taking cranberry supplements and LR don't think he wants to change his diet as he doesn't think there's any point.I'm also hoping it won't take long to conceive as we were really hoping for a summer baby.

Kelissi - you are definitely making me want to stay on the diet for another month with hopes of being a thinner pg person! I forgot about that plus of staying on the diet and exercise another month. Decisions, decisions... I will just have to see how I feel about the whole thing in a couple weeks when I ovulate.
eleena - welcome!
Question for the group - if you are swaying in July (or August?) what are you doing now for your sway ? Assuming diet (plus exercise for some). Any supplements? Anything else ? I'm drinking peppermint tea but I'm horrible about remembering. I bought fiber but I have yet to remember to take it. I'm taking folic acid and husband is taking OLE, otherwise we aren't doing much.
Hi eleena2014! Sorry you won't be able to sway until August but we are happy to have you here :)
