LE Diet Thread

[amelia10]

My saving grace is sipping on coffee or diet coke throughout the day when I feel hungry! Attempting this wk 3rd time lucky I hope ... Under the weather at the moment so appetite gone, kinda glad leading up to my sway, having soups and bread for lunch allot with pasta and pesto for dinner

I'm still here. I'm only sort of doing the diet ��. I really can't afford to lose much weight and I still have no signs of a pp period or ovulation (breastfeeding a two year old still). I'm worried if I'm on the diet too hard I'll suppress ovulation even longer. This is hard swaying and having no idea when we'll be able to make an attempt.

Yup this is what happened to me.
I had a crazy short luteal phase.
Had to cut out fibre pills and saw palmetto and add in one serving of full fat dairy. I am on 2 cycle now. It's tough to get pregnant doing all of this especially when you add in alcohol daily!

That's what happened to me when weaning DS3. I just didn't ovulate after stopping BF because of the LE diet. After five months I dropped the diet and ate my usual greedy nutrient filled diet and ovulated that month!

I'm slightly concerned that the same thing is happening again. I've been on LE since June and the last two cycle charts look anovulatory to me. I had to drop my exercise a month ago due to flu and travel, and was going to start again today but I am now worried that that might be too much? I'm unsure.

Yesterday
Breakfast - black coffee
Lunch - homemade roasted garlic, shallot, and potato soup.
Dinner - vegetable burger with low fat oven chips (fries) and a beer, and a few dark chocolate buttons

I'm adding in full fat dairy to see if that helps. I also started vitex yesterday. I night weaned almost 6weeks ago so I was hoping that would kickstart ovulation but it hasn't seemed to help.

Fingers crossed!

Jus realised I'd not noted down my food! Well we had birthday parties so that's always a snacky one for me

Saturday
Breakfast - black coffee, piece of French bread and a scrambled egg
Lunch - homemade roasted garlic and potato soup, some french bread and salad
Snacks - a few cheddar sandwiches at the party then G&T and pistachios
Dinner - Indian takeaway - popodom, veg curry, saag aloo, rice and chapati with red wine (I imagine very high in fat so lunch was very low)

Sunday
Breakfast - black coffee
Lunch - egg mayo and tomato sandwich
Snacks - a few little pieces of pizza, G&T and pistachios
Dinner - leftover Indian takeaway and red wine

Not doing too well at the moment. I'm finding it incredibly hard to get back on track after my month of illness and vacation.
