I'm new too and also very confused. I will look through this when I have time. I have never dieted and have eaten what I like all my life so it is not going to be easy. I have 3 sons. A three year old and 9 month old identical twins. I will start TTC our 4th and final in just under a year and want to do everything I can to get a daughter. I have been thinking about it heaps lately as I get sick of drawing diggers for my toddler and think I have two more double rounds of this. Life is very busy and tiring right now but I am loving it. My partner also has three older sons
Is your partner the father of your three boys? If so (and he has produced 6 sons!!) make sure you lower his sperm count - a lot! :-) Good Luck getting your girl!!Quote:

Still 5 is alot and I am very intimidated by his most likely high sperm count doing this sway thing. He also smokes a pack a day, has a high stress job as the boss in a hot kitchen and works more than fulltime hours and is 40!
Just wondering if anyone on here, old or new, knows if mrs dash seasonings/marinades are ok? They have no salt, but the ingredients are largely, generally, garlic, celery and onion - all things that aren't ideal. Also are chillies allowed? Flakes or fresh? Thanks! I too am very new to dieting. Have a typical boy diet. Not anymore!!!
I think so as I saw someone recommend them. If you are worried use them as part of your diet not as a main flavour. Parmesan has a real kick to it and you hardly need any, also low fat philli mixed with salt free stock makes a nice pasta sauce - I grate in some raw courgette and it is yummy. Basalmic vinegar and dressings are good too. Low sodium hummus mixed with philli makes a surprisingly good stuffing for mushrooms. Good luck!Quote:

My 2 and a half year old pointed at the frozen ones in the store and asked for 'Za'. Who can resist? He asks for things so rarely!

Im not going to worry overmuch about it... I plugged in some of the other things I was eating before I dieted, and I was taking in over 3500 calories and over 4000mg sodium! :drama: After I started my diet, I was generally over 59g of protein, and 40-50g of fat, and well over on sodium (like, 2500+) because I didnt track it >.<
Lunch- Baked potato with unsalted butter and fat free sour cream & a light yogurt
Dinner- 2 homemade banana nut (light on the nuts for me) pancakes with syrup, a banana, and some strawberries
Snack- Weight Watchers raspberry cheesecake.
Im very much craving sweets today, can anybody tell? :o
