abbreviations here, most of them anyway. if you don't see the one you're looking for, ask! http://genderdreaming.com/forum/gend...anslation.html
Yes, I want you to use full fat instead of diet cheese. Gaining weight is even more evidence that you need to ditch the skim and go to full fat. I know it is counterintuitive but skim dairy may make your body hang onto weight.
I'd probably also switch to whole grains and also get more carbs from fruit and vegetables instead of white refined grains. Up protein and fat to 50-60 g each. Doing these changes will help turn that weight gain around. Sometimes people will gain weight and that is a sign we're getting too many empty carbs and need to up protein and fat, and switch from empty carbs to better carbs.
You can eat 1500-1800 cals a day. You do not need to limit yourself based on your BMI. Important thing is making the changes that I have outlined above.
Yes, walking with the kids counts as exercise. No need for a gym membership.
I can't compare one attempt to e4d. Most people start off on one attempt and then after a few months go onto e4d so it is not something I can simply compare.
RE social events - cheating for things like this is not only allowed but encouraged. It DOES NOT ruin your sway.
Most important is the limits. Always the limits. But in times of cheating it is ok to exceed limits for a meal or a day.
It takes an average of 3 months for people to fall pregnant with swaying. This is the same amount of time it takes the average couple without swaying! I would not start off with e4d personally at 33/34. It's up to you, though.
Thanks again so much!! So nice to see that you make the time to help with questions you probably answered a thousand times!
I will make the diet changes and start with one attempt at + OPK (with abstain for 7-10 days I guess). One last question if I may, does the choice for abstain/FR/do nothing particularly matter for conceiving or girl chances?
Now, I stop thinking and considering and just go. Better for girls right :-).
Hopefully I'll have good (pink) news soon!
p.s. The weight gain was probably due to my period. This morning I was minus 2 kg. Yeah!
Our results don't seem to indicate that there is any difference between them. Neither one really seems to be doing much.
So DH doesn't have to FR of abstain before our one attempt? He can release whenever he wants for the same sway girl chances before one attempt?
No, he doesn't have to. It is up to you. The results have not indicated that either of those things actually help. BUT try to keep in mind that our results are NOT a study. All our respondents are doing tons of things to sway. It ~may~ be that if we tested 1000 couples they would make some difference, but that's just not showing up for us in our results so it makes more sense to me to focus on quick time to conception with one attempt by dropping the things that are not actively helping.
I totally understand! It's good to know that there's no need to pressure my DH :-).
Thanks again!
Hi Atomic, so far I'm doing great on the diet. Already lost 3 kg and brisk walking 6 days a week!
An additional question came up...when should you take the psyllium husk tablets? I read contradicting stuff here and on the internet. Should it be taken 1 hour before a meal, just before a meal or after the meal for the purpose of girl swaying? I do know we only have to take it with fatty meals. Thanks so much in advance!
