thanks that lets me know how to help others in the future. :)
Hi there, Today I purchased the "TTC a Girl Bundle- Personalized Gender Swaying Plan and Coaching Service PLUS Guide to Understanding Your Cycle and using OPKs to Sway PLUS 21-day Meal Plan!" and I am not able to open the link you posted above to get the 21 day meal plan PDF (only can get the 5 day). It says I do not have permission to access. Can you tell me how I can download it? Thank you!
I'm sorry, CJ, try logging out and logging back in again, and if it doesn't work then let me know and I'll contact someone who can help us.
Hi Atomic,
Hi, It's been a while since I asked a question. Curious about a few things
1. My husband and I started to drink lots of seltzer water (Le Croix brand) is that bad?
2. Not sure if I got the answer before to zyrtec as an alternative to drying up
3. Are go to snacks of carrots, and yogurt and veggie chips ok? Having a hard time with the food as expected
4. Is ground turkey for tacos ok?
Going to try to conceive in June, and I'm still conflicted on how many times we should try using our ovulation tracking monitor. My friend just had her third baby it was a boy and she just did it one time.
Thank you in advance
Momie this thread is for mostly questions about the 21 day diet book but I'll go ahead and answer here, maybe next time you might want to move this to the TTC a girl forums so more people will see it (lots of times others have good advice too!)
1)That's fine I drank tons of seltzer when I got my DD. Might want to stay away from club soda tho.
2)I don't know what question you are referring to, I'm sorry. Zyrtec is what most of us use but the antihistamines have been disappointing in terms of results, not seeming to do much.
3)What I want you to do, instead of snacking, is to add in a meal. If you can't get by with 3, have 4. If not 4 meals, then have 5. But DON"T be munching all day long since that keeps your blood sugar up all the time. So instead of keeping carrots and yogurt on hand to have when you want them, try to eat the minimum amount of meals that you can stand. 3 or 4, or even 5 will still be better than munching all day.
4)As long as you're in the limits for your diet - 1500-1800 cals a day, 40-50 g of protein OR 50-60 g protein depending on your dietary needs, 30-60 g fat, then you can have ground turkey.
5)It doesn't matter if there are people out there who only had sex one time. None of these things are 100%. What we want to do is aim for what has worked best for most people, most of the time, and that is one attempt. We have been having some success with having sex every 4 days (this works out to be one attempt in the fertile window without really having to think about it too much).
In the 21 day meal plan for TTC a girl, when "corn tortilla" is referenced, are you talking about the "hard shell" taco shells or the soft taco shells which are corn as opposed to "white tortilla"?
The soft taco ones. The crispy ones are ok too but they will have more fat and sodium than the soft ones. :)
I just purchased the 21 day meal plan book but cannot access it? Will it come in an email ? How will I receive this? Thanks!
Does this link work?? https://genderdreaming.com/forum/21-...n-for-le-diet/
No it doesnt. It says I don't have access.
Ok I'll message someone.
The link doesn't work for me either. I have access to get to the 21 day LE forum page where it says I can download, and it acts like it is going to download, but ends on a broken link symbol. Any thoughts?Quote:

I just bought the 21 day meal plan for ttc a girl. This is great and super helpful! I had a few questions. I noticed that there seems to be a lot of dairy. Is the LE diet not low dairy as well?
Also, I have a gluten allergy and eat a gluten free diet. Do you know if there is anything I need to do or change being gluten free? I do eat a lot of gluten free foods like gluten free pasta, gluten free bread, etc. Is it ok to continue eating the gluten free versions of some of the foods listed in the meal plan? Any idea if gluten free sways one way or another?
Many people want to continue to do the higher dairy intake of the French Gender Diet while doing LE principles. So I put some dairy-centric recipes in there but it is totally fine to limit dairy (and of course everyone should always stick in the limits of LE Diet anyway). I got my daughter having very little dairy after all four boys having tons of it.Quote:

Thank you so much for the info! I usually eat a lot of dairy, so I think I will try to cut back on it. I also was wondering if I need to be eating some of the fruits and veggies without the skins (apples, cucumbers, zucchini, etc). I read this somewhere, not sure if it was here or on a Facebook page? Is this part of the LE diet as well? Are there too many nutrients in the skins?Quote:

I’m fine with continuing on this calorie range if necessary, just don’t want to delay ovulation (and BD on the wrong day- I really want to have a 3 day cutoff, no more no less) or lose too much weight.

When we originally started off we worried about all nutrients and tried to cut back on them whenever we could, but we have come to find that it's really calories, protein, fat, and fortified foods like vitamins and foods that are practically vitamins like cereals, power bars, etc. If you want to cut off the skins, that's fine, but I doubt they do anything at all and add in some of that control freak, detail oriented energy to your sway that may undermine a sway way more than a small bit of nutrients in an appel peel could. So long story short, you don't need to peel anything.
No. You need to eat more. Only maybe 1-3% of people should be on such a low cal intake. 1500-1800 for most, and a large minority have to go up to 1800-2000.
I don't want you guys to drop below BMI 18.5 under any circumstances and at BMI 21, you need to stop losing and try to hold steady so you have a small margin for errror in case weight keeps creeping off. YOu're at BMI 20 now so the weight loss has to stop, eat however much it takes to keep weight on, try to still keep protein and fat in the range though.
Thank you Atomic! I will not worry about peeling my fruits and veggies. I am very much detail oriented and a control freak, lol, (working on this, lol) so I will not worry about the skins.
Yay! I am happy to increase my calories:) I will really miss my Rice Krispies treats [emoji24] but I will find another snack to enjoy. I will count and ensure I stay within the nutrient ranges. Thank you! [emoji4]

The occasional rice krispie treat is 100% allowed. What we don't want to see is you guys having big bowls of cereal and other fortified foods every day. :)
What is the best app to use for LE diet and counting calories, fat and protein? I have been using Fat Secret. Is this a good app?
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
i personally think it's probably best to just use a paper and a pen. Many of the apps have unreliable nutrient info and you're probably better off just looking them up on the packaging or online yourself. But yes many people use that one or My Fitness Pal, whichever is easier.
Thank you!!

Is there a list somewhere of fortified foods to try to avoid for girl sway, or should I just use the Grade D list in the 21 day meal plan? Are there other foods I should try not to eat too often that aren’t on that list?
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Oh gosh if I made a list of those it would be ten miles long! So many on the market.
There are foods that have a ~little~ fortification in them (like bread, pasta, even rice) and those are ok. Many grain foods have a little iron and folic added to them and that is nothing to worry about.
What you want to avoid are the ones that have an entire pharmacopia of vitamins in them like power bars, meal replacer shakes, Vitamin Water, breakfast cereals...the things you look down the label and there is 25-100% DRV of like every single nutrient ever discovered and then some extra stuff thrown in there just in case LOL.
Oh ok, I see. Thank you! [emoji4]

Hi! I am lost! I just purchased:
"The Complete TTC a Girl Package- Swaying Plan, Coaching, Meal Plan and all eBooks for one year"
But I can't find anything! It does show under my active subscriptions, but I don't see any downloads or way to get started.
Sorry if I am misunderstanding the process.
You should be all set up now and have access to the questionnaires!Quote:
