Here after two blue sways :D
Edit - OK, I did the reading and.. answered most of my questions (I hope)! Wish me luck :)
Hi everyone :)
Did not think I would be making an appearance here except to check in on old acquaintances, but here we are! One DD who is nearly 6, DS1, 4 and DS2, 2 - both of the DS's are Blue Sways. And me and DH are thinking of adding number four to the crew after all, I thought I'd try a pink sway to even things out - healthy over gender is the most important thing. But I can't imagine TTCing without swaying now, it's part of the fun ;)
So here I am on the other side with all the lovely pink swayers :) I've read the LE diet nutshell version by atomic (TYSM!) and people's descriptions of their sways. I think I am getting a general picture. Some questions remain:
-- cool with skipping breakfast and pretty sure I did that back in the day when we conceived DD, due to rushing to the office and such most days. Started skipping breakfast except for coffee with a bit of skim milk now.
-- cut tea and herbal tea entirely
-- no vitamins since a while now (I forgot/was lazy about getting a refill) and I will follow the folic acid recommendations;
-- understood recommendations about staying within protein and fat suggestions. Read the meal suggestions, thanks for the blanket lists and people sharing what worked for them!
-- Will cut out red meat and whole eggs and nuts for the time being
-- Focusing on cardio suits me to a T as we walk everywhere with kids, plus I bike and run a lot
-- TTC is a ways off for us as I would try to stay on LE for a few months first. I'll take the time to read the suggestions over some more. I got the 'one attempt is gold' pretty much fixed in my mind though;
Thanks so much for everything and I will keep updating - I plan to stick to LE for three months starting about now before TTC.
Best to all :)
