Tm29- that's what I do..1x coffee in morning & a green tea with lemon slices in evening.
One of my fav snacks is cottage cheese with cherry tomatoes. 1/2 cup of cottage cheese has 12 g of protein!
The diet is going ok..I really hope I get a BFP next month because i don't like this constant full feeling. I get heartburn a LOT now.
I seriously obsess over boy clothes lately lol
Hello Ladies,
Can I join you all. I am starting the whole ttc process again after taking a two month break. I was also wondering if any of you gals new what sweetners are safe to use during our ttc attempts. I was told about sweetners that can be safely used with a boy sway. I was told stevia is one. I know there is another natural sweetner called Organic blue agave nectar made by C&H which contains Organic Agave Nectar and is a natural sweetner and I was wondering if this is also safe to use. Fx to you all and our blue sways! 😊💜
Hi yogi&booboo - I asked atomic about this and she told me that stevia is thought to be ok, but there isn't enough research yet, so she advises not using it. I've been a big user of sweetener all my life and it's tough not having it, but I'm finding that eating higher fat ingredients gives food so much more flavour that it can be enough to sweeten things with 1/2 cup of blueberries. I use a tiny bit of maple syrup too, which is more nutritious and lower GI (better for blood sugar) than sugar. When I use full fat milk I find the lactose in milk is pretty sweet too.
Are you on the diet yet?

Thank-you again!:p
How do you ladies eat so much without spending a fortune on food?? I find myself eating everything so fast and then having to go shopping again. We can afford to have another child but ive never eaten this much in my life, its really putting a dent in the budget. Any tips?
It puts a dent in my grocery budget as well, especially the cost of juices. I won't even go into the price of my supps.
Rubygem- oh I know!! We never ate meat much and we are almond milk drinkers so switching to buying whole fat milk and meat is hard. We also only eat organic...well ee try too when it's an option, so I spend a fortune. I really HOPE I get pregnant fast...

I attached a picture...I found this juice at Wal-Mart surprisingly. Organic & non GMO..in the boxed juices section. Only $3-4. Check your local Wal-Marts. I went to 2 different ones and found them at both.
