What are you eating???

I forgot to mention - you'll usually find it near the ricotta in the grocery store. I hope you enjoy it! It's bland, I'll warn you - but I love the texture!

I'll try anything at this point, this diet is so bland! I love lemon and vinegar and although I know we can use then I'm trying not to overdo it as I've always added loads of these things to my diet

The weekends though I was a bad girl with chocolate and sodium. I have been eating less and better since February though and working out. I am down 20 lbs since then.

I officially started the diet on Monday. I have been really really good with diet and the cardio. This will give me about 7 weeks before our attempt in July. When are you starting to try?


This morning I feel very wired and sort of jitter though. I can't sleep. It is like the feeling of having a lot of caffeine. I am no sure if it PMS (I will get my period in the next day or so), diet, or the negative ions stuff I got yesterday. I put a negative ion bracelet on and plugged in my negative ion generator in my computer and had the computer in my bedroom last night.
Did you feel this way at all? What do you think?

Yes, I do feel that same way to! Like AS said, its the low blood sugar and the heavy cardio workouts. I plan on trying this month acutally. I'm really tired of this darn diet. I'm sick of feeling weak and tired all the time. Plus I don't want to have to plan out my meals anymore, it's a lot of work. :hair:

Oh yeah! I love me some boccocini cheese balls from Trader Joe's!!!! I can eat a tub in one day. Of course I don't buy them right now because that's exactly what I would do!

I just thought i would join you girls on this thread.. Pretty much my diet is nothing to eat until about 2pm i find i get past being hungry by then , I do have my cal, mag and cranberry sup with water at about 10 am tho. At 2 pm i have 2 glasses of milk with equal then i have 2 vit C tablets then at about 4 i have another glass of milk and some dried cranberries. 5pm more milk then pasta or rice for tea. I am SUFFERING! there will be nothing left of me but i am wanting to stick to it and if it doesnt work at least i can say i gave it all i have and i would never try again. I also take Vitex af to o afetr my milk in the arvo plus i take saw palmetto after my tea at night also af to o. Does anyone think i should be eating more? and if so what should i eat? i have cream and egg white cooked with my pasta and a little bit of parm cheese but it all gets very boring but afraid to try something different. especially when alot of foods i hear about people eating we cant get in Australia. Oh i brought Crystal Light i drink about 6 of them a day.

Holy Crap Girl! You're a machine!!! If you don't get your girl....I certainly won't! Good on you for sticking to it so well! Good luck!!

Thanks for those words of encouragement i need to hear things like that as i am struggling do you think it would be ok to eat tomato based sause on my pasta if it does nothing to my ph..? or just stay away from it?

Wow, I agree, I am eating way more than that and struggling!

There's a low-everything diet on here which I'm following - it's low calorie/fat/protein/sodium/nutrient. Tomatoes (and potatoes!) are allowed and I'm planning on making a batch of homemade tomato sauce with leeks and tinned tomatoes (which I find vary alot in their sodium levels) and then adding a few other vegetables when I heat it up for variety - mushrooms, green beans, courgettes etc. I quite like just unsalted butter with a bit of parmesan on my pasta though! I'm also finding that I'm not eating much dairy at all because there's so much protein in it. We're aiming for only 40g a day and my meals are based on carbs (white bread for lunch, pasta for dinner) and I get most of my allowance from them. I tend to have a little bit of skimmed milk with my morning coffee and a fat free artificially sweetened yogurt with lunch as well as some low salt (rubbery!) cheese in my sandwich and that's it. Are you drinking skimmed milk? We should drink skimmed for a girl, whole milk for a boy (because whole milk has been proven to increase fertility and skimmed milk to decrease it - and anything which decreases fertility tends to sway girl). I highly recommend you read the thread Atomic posted in the Dream member section on this diet if you can because it's so informative.

Good luck - when are you planning to make your attempt? I'm hoping for July, I just want to get pregnant as quickly as possible so I can go back to eating my yummy (boy!) diet!!

Hi is there a link to the low everything diet?

hey zanacal we are going to ttc in july aswell! bit nervous about it. The reason why i dont eat through the day is because once i have had something even if it was a grape then thats it i would be starving so i hold out as long as i can. I am usually hungry in the morning but that does pass. My usual diet is ALL boy friendly i never skip breakfast eat too much salt i eat what ever i want pretty much! So this has and is going to be very very hard for me. That home made tomato sauce sounds good i will have to look at the everything diet too.
