April/May/June 14 swayers...

Welcome flowerlily and GL to all the ladies who are attempting in April!

I've been on the diet for 4 days (with the exception of a couple of bites of meat the other night) and have lost NOTHING. I know I'm impatient, but I'm incredibly frustrated because when I do low carb diets and indulge in cheeseburgers and eggs and those sort of foods I'm never hungry and typically lose 5 lbs the first week of the diet. I'll try to be patient, but it's hard. I'm hungry often and not eating meat is awful. The only thing keeping me going is the idea that I could be skinny! I'll give it another 10 days and then maybe switch to the PCOS version of the diet if this still isn't working..

lol! Well that is strange! I am not sure what to say other than do what you are doing and do a second attempt! Smart lady you are. Good luck!

blue- it will come. It took me 2 weeks to really notice a weight loss. You don't want to lose too much too quickly just in case it takes a while to conceive. You don't want to get to a point where you can't sway correctly. .The time will start to go quickly. I thought the same as you back in January and was frustrated and discouraged at the whole weight thing. It is now April 4th and I am 3 weeks out from attempt! It went more quickly than I thought it would and I have lost over 20 lbs!

Rosie - 20 lbs?!? Wow!!! We are likely not attemting until July at this point, so you are right and it's good that my weight loss is slow so I will still have weight to lose in July. I have 20 lbs to lose to get to my lowest adult weight. It seems like so much weight right now and so slow, but I need to learn to stop being so impatient! Did you work out as well?

I am working out yes. I started at every other day to build myself up and now I am doing 5-6 days a week. I also cheat on weekends so my weight loss is slower because of that too.

Rosie - good for you! I had originally decided to go couch potato route but I'm leaning towards adding it to my sway. That's smart to work up to 6 days a week. Maybe I Can start once a week or twice a week and then get up to 6 days by 6 weeks before my first attempt.

I think that would a be a good plan blue! It's important to not overdo it right away so you don't quit. I am nervous I won't get pregnant my first try out. I did every other time. I don't know if I have the gusto to keep exercising so much!

Meant to add hopefully a pink one;) I never delever early, and that's making me nervous.
In my mind I wanted a 2014 winter baby, and it does make a little sense (at least to me..lol) not so according to DH! Men!
Ds1 was born 2010 summer 10 day late weighing a whopping 4.45kg.
Ds2 was born 2012 summer, 5 days late (though we were moving houses, so there were lots of moving/lifting boxes) weighing 3.89kg.
So this time I want to experience birth and new born during winter.

Wow Rosie that's amazing weight loss Well done girl! Bet you feel great all the same do you?
As Rosie said Blue it will take a bit of time for the weight loss to.kick in You definitely don't want to loose too much I've lost 18lbs and I'm trying to stay put which is harder than trying to loose weight!
flowerlily My first 2 ds were overdue but my third was a week early so you never can tell
I did another opk an hour ago and its super dark ........ The mind boggles! Better tell hubby it's his lucky night!!! ;)

Good job on your weight loss too Daisy!!! I unfortunately need to lose more. My BMI is still over 23. I was looking to get to 22, which is for optimum health. So I need to lose another 10 pounds. I do feel good though!
