I am doing a mixture of IG diet and low everything diet. I am trying to focus on lowering testostrone. I am doing what foods I can on IG without doing the chicken and milk so I am limiting my protein drastically. I dd straight IG diet on my last sway which go me a beautiful boy so I am changing it up a bit to fit more of Atomic's ideas. What I listed today and yesterday is pretty much what I am doing everyday I just change my fruit from either strawberries or rasberries. I am only really doing the fruit so I have something to lather equal on! lol

Supper: rice pasta with zucchini, leeks and parmesan, rice milk, one of ds's fries (I was amazed by my restraint once I tasted one)
Snack: strawberries, raspberries, Skinny Cow Ice Cream sandwich

mocha, we´re having a barbeque tomorrow and I wanted to make your mushroom burger but I can´t find it anymore. Could you please tell me how you made it, I remember you marinated the mushrooms in balsamico, but what did you add to make it stick together? TIA
-
I just took a portobello mushroom, cut off the stem, marinated the whole thing in balsamic, then put it on the grill. I found it flared up a lot the first time, so the second time I covered the grill with foil first and it worked better. I think I grilled it for maybe 5 minutes per side, then I put a slice of low fat cheese on top (I used provolone), waited for it to melt and was done. I ate it on a low sodium bun with a touch of mayo and a slice of tomato. A slice of cucumber might work too. Enjoy!

So....af arrived today so I'm officially going to be on this diet at least another month. Not happy about that at all. Now I have to figure out what to do with my cottage visit right around O-time. We'll have my parents, my brother's family and our family packed into a 2.5 bedroom cottage, and there's nowhere I can steal away to with dh to dtd. I just looked at the calendar, and we're planning to be at the cottage from the 15th until the 19th, and I'm due to O on the 19th based on my usual cd12 ovulation, or the 21st if Vitex delays O 2 days again. For once I'm hoping O comes 2 days later because it would be easier. I could have dh release daily in the shower, then we could dtd on the 19th, 20th and 21st for our attempt (not as much bd as we did this time, but better than nothing). If O comes on time, I don't know what we'll do.:nails:

Oh, Mocha, so sorry to hear about AF. Hopefully this next month will be it for you!
I didn't do so well yesterday with diet. It was super hot here so I cheated a bit. Oh, well, hopefully it will all balance out. Down to 141 now. (5"8)
MidMorning: CL, glass skim milk
Lunch: 1 waffle, glass skim milk, Coke Zero
Supper: Wendy's frosty (small)
Snack: CL, small scoop of oreo ice cream

tweedle - I'm sure your nutrients were within limits, but it looks like you didn't eat any real food yesterday! There's nothing wrong with a little ice cream - I eat some frozen yogurt almost every night, but surely you can't survive on nothing but ice cream and CL. I would be soooo hungry by the end of the day if I ate that little. Would you consider yogurt instead of milk? At least you'd get more substance out of it. (BTW not meaning to lecture - just worried about you!)

Oh mochagirl, I'm so disappointed for you. I really thought this was your month. Are you ok?
I agree tweedle, you must have been so hungry by bedtime - what willpower!
Today I've had:
Breakfast: coffee
Lunch: 2 slices ww bread with low fat cheese slice. Packet potato loop crisps.
Dinner: 2 slices ww bread with low fat spread and 1/2 tin light baked beans. Pot low fat rice pudding with dollop of sugar free jam.
Snack: Strawberries with meringue nest and squirty cream. 1/2 big packet tutti fruttis.
Does anybody else get hungrier around O time? I got a positive OPK today (at cd12 - didn't ovulate until cd19 last month!) and a couple of days ago I knew it was coming, mainly because of the tummy tenderness, but also because I was starving! I'm really thinking we'll skip another cycle before our attempt if they're going to be shorter cycles because I think I probably need more than another 4 weeks on the diet.

zanacal - I think you've been a rock star as far as weight loss goes, and you could start your attempt as soon as you want and feel good about it!
I'm doing ok - thanks for asking. I've decided to take this lemon and make lemonade. You may have seen my post in 2WW, but April is a better month to have a baby anyway because March here in Canada is crappy weather-wise. I'm also going to try to enjoy this skinny body for another month, though it will mean I'll have to go shopping because I have NOTHING that fits me anymore (another positive - retail therapy!). Second month's always been the charm for me, so I'm hoping the same thing will happen this time. I'm on CD1 - it's a fresh start and I'm ready to go!

I am starving I am starving O yea I am starving... I heard the Amidais (?spelling) Song and now I am singing it but with different words :)
I had coffee today so far but later...
2 Diet soda and 1/2 gallon of crystal light through out the day
Buttered/aspartame toast for lunch (crappy bread) and an apple
Dinner will be 2-3oz of herbed crusted chicken and 1/2 cp mixed veggies
Latenight Snack :bigsmile: homemade banana cream pie because I dream about it and haven't had bananas in like forever and I have been extremely limiting potassium for months.
