exercise

Boyshopping, I think it is very late May or June....I would take it a little slower and introduce folic already...I think you can start being a little more drastic at end of March...as sometimes it takes a litte while to get pregnant on LE diet...take my example, I thought I will get pregnant right away and kept the diet so strict, but it took me 6 months...and my body was soooo weak...I was under my BMI, which is not okay.
Just keep it vegetarian but more kcal...and you can start everything else at end of March.

thanks mybyC! Started veg diet and exercising - I think i am around 1500-1800 cal but will track more closely next month. Diet usually consist of lots of veggies, salads, rice ... folic acid is good - curious does it sway pink?

They say it might help. You have nothing to loose taking it.

Folic doesn't sway to my knowledge and it wouldn't matter if it did, we all have to take it because it is the only nutrient shown to prevent birth defects when taken before conception.

Should I slow down or eat a little more? I could lose a few more lbs but i dont want to lose it all this month and next! Vegetarian diet, 60minutes exercise, skip breakfast (only a cup of coffee +2 tbsp cream + splenda). Haven't started on folic acid or fiber yet. Should I incorporate fiber?

Yes start folic and fiber, also do slow down that weight loss or stop all together.

all fibers ok as long as not fortified iwth nutrients
