The rules are of course different with ED being involved. If you can't do the diet without triggering those emotions then DON"T. You can still get a girl. Just do what you CAN do and let go of the rest. Exercise and one attempt both get great results. Coming off the Mirena may help as well.
The one thing I really, really do not want you to fall into is the idea of "OMG I'm 29 it will take me forever" because that is just straight up not the case in any way, shape, or form, and while fertility does decline over time, it is a very, very, VERY slow decline and those of us with proven fertility are going to be really basically just as fertile at 29 as at 24. This emotion has ruined more sways (including my own!! both DS 3 and 4 I thought I had to do everyhting under the sun to boost fertility and I was over 10 years older than you and still got pregnant right away) because people assume "I will obvs be much less fertile now than I used to be" and then they end up completely undermining themselves for NO REASON because most of us are still very very fertile. So please don't let that mess with your head. Time is on your side. :)
