Rosie, I exercised only for four weeks, every single day for an hour (I chose the bike, whether in my living room or outside). I followed the diet for 6 weeks plus the 2 WW.
Hope this helped and sorry for my late response (too busy shopping...!)
I'll post my sway shortly.
Hi ladies, think I'll add my 2 unintentional girl sways as it seems I was indeed swaying :ttcgirl:.
Both pregnancies were planned so I was on typically 400mcg FA for at least 3 months prior :ttc:.
With DD1 I had joined a gym and was trying to eat smaller portions.
My diet was typically
Breakfast sugary cereal with full-fat milk, 2 slices of 50/50 bread with Flora and strawberry jam and a cup of tea
Mid-morning snackbiscuits or a chocolate bar and a cup of tea
Lunch cheese and Ham rosaries with crisps and chocolate biscuit bar or 2 with sugar free juice drink Mid-afternoon snackCup of tea, biscuits or chocolate
Dinner Crispy chicken breasts, chips and peas, gravy with an ice cream cone for after, with a sugar free juice drink
Evening snackHot chocolate, biscuits or chocolate
I was failing at eating healthier but I was cutting out all day grazing
DD2, I was walking mostly everywhere or running after DD2
Breakfast Bran Flakes semi-skim milk, 2 slices 50/50 toast w/jam & Flora light w/cup of tea
Mid-Morning Snack Banana, biscuits w/ a cup of tea
Lunch Baked Potato, Beans and salad, Mullerlight yoghurt w/sugarfree juice drink
Mid-afternoon snack Mullerlight yoghurt glass of water or green tea
Dinner Slimming world recipe Spaghetti Bolognese, cheese & garlic bread, mullerlight yoghurt and sugarfree juice
Evening Snack 3 biscuits with hot chocolate
Both conceived via Missionary Position though DD1 took 3 months to conceive whereas DD2 was after 1st attempt.
Both attempts started 3 months after stopping BC pill.
Both conceived in colder months but with CH on.
I lay with legs up and hips propped up for at least 10 mins after dtd.
Hubby wore loose boxer shorts and had hot showers. He also works in a hot factory 12hr shifts 5 times a week. He drunk at least 3x 2ltr bottles of cola a week and 4x 2ltr fizzy sugarfree pop. He eats a lot of dairy, chips, crisps and jelly sweets. He used to smoke. He drunk 4-5 cans of beer once a week.
Dreaminblue- your diet strikes me as HE (minus the sugar free drink- squash??), so it should be easier for you to incorporate. Maybe try adding more fruit and veg- I did it easily with green smoothies. Good luck!
I think dreaminblue you are on the right track, you just need to be sure to get protein + carbs at every meal and snack and increase intake of healthy fats!
Thanks ladies. I'll certainly take on board those changes. I'll be properly HE from April onwards and than TTC end of May.
Good lucky to all the :XX: swayers. Please take my pink baby dust
Hi ladies! Great thread!! I am very new to this and this thread is really helping me form a game plan lol. QUESTION: How many of you ladies refrained from or:hair:gasm? That seems like it would be the hardest part of a pink sway lol.
Well my smiley didn't exactly go where I wanted it to lolQuote:

I had one when i got my DD.
I thought it was really clever LOL!!!!Quote:

DD2 - I was finally starting to lose all of my baby weight from DD1, down about 40 pounds. Feeling pretty good, doing some cardio and cutting cals again. If I had a soda it was diet, lots of crystal light, rice cakes. I was a nutritional mess, but I didn't realize how bad a diet like that was on the body. DH and I only BD once unprotected on a night we had gone out drinking, no idea how close to O because I wasn't tracking my cycle because we weren't ttc.
