    Can I take a break from the diet during 2ww?

    I know we are supposed to stay on it, but I am wondering if there is any reason, beyond increasing the time on the diet in case we are not pregnant? I need a break desperately! And sadly, the more I cheat, the more I want to continue cheating. Agh!

    Theoretically no, because if you do not get pg, then you have some starting over to do. It happens! Also the little female xx bean seems to thrive well in low glucose environments.

    This! Your blood sugar is just as important, if not more so during the 2ww!

    Thx girls! Question regarding blood sugar...I'm still not eating breakfast and not snacking...just cheating w foods I normally cut out. Is that sufficient or do you still say go the whole nine yards? 

    Its good to skip breakfast and no snacks. Your cheats are probably fine unlesss you like go spear a pig and put an apple in its mouth and roast it in a pit and eat giant hamhocks for every meal, then fry the tail and the skin to make chitlins etc

    Well thats a little extreme but just stay in the limits and the 2 weeks really does go quickly because we ususally test earlier than that anyway

    Oh no...I had a pig roast last night! ��
    Haha, thanks for the feedback...I do appreciate it! You are so right that we don't have patience! I was just telling my husband today that it is taking all the willpower in the world to not test yet!!! 7dpo today....
