Did you purchase and follow a GD Personalized Plan? Yes
DIET
Did you follow a diet plan? Yes
If yes to diet, which one did you most follow?
Comments regarding DW's diet changes- Still ate meat but had a lot less of it and never had red meat. I had three meals a day but always delayed breakfast. I wasn’t very strict about worrying about eating the least nutrient dense foods as long as they fit in my daily totals. I did avoid things like cereal, protein bars, tea, etc.
If diet was used, length of time before attempt? 12 weeks minus one week right in the middle where I went on vacation and didn’t really follow the diet (ugh).
Did you skip breakfast regularly? Yes
Did DH change his diet with you? No
Comments regarding DH's diet- His only diet change was eating a little less meat and maybe a little less fat because of the dinners I would make.
DId you consume alcohol?
DId you try to limit caffeine? No, I drink caffeine regularly
Any Diet Details? I drank at least two large mugs of coffee a day. I also was eating dairy and soy free because my son who is still breastfeeding doesn’t tolerate it.

Things that make me feel great about my sway: I was on the diet for 12 weeks and included exercise this time after a failed sway last time with no exercise. I stayed very relaxed the whole time and didn’t stress over little details. I am still breastfeeding and am at my lowest conception weight.
Things that make me nervous about my sway: I got pregnant really easily again. My last sway failed so I’m worried my body just prefers to carry boys. I skipped an entire week of diet and exercise while on vacation. I had a cheat day most weeks. I stayed at the high end of fat and calories because of breastfeeding and trying not to lose weight.
Things worth mentioning: Dh had alcohol and smoked special cigarettes every day.
