TTC pink in October

[jennaesue]

Ugh, I am still waiting on AF. I have been having cramps on and off since Friday. Extended BFing and the minipill totally messed me up. I thought I'd be back in business by now. I am getting really sick of this! I just want to get this cycle started! I have also been cheating really badly all weekend and even today. I really need to get strict again.

It's really hard to be strict on anything when you're stressed. You can only do your best! I stopped BF nearly three months ago so I am not certain of my cycle either. I am just hoping that I get a +OPK two weeks after AF. That's what we're timing it to anyway. Fingers crossed!

So what's everyone eating for lunch today? I had a half of a naan bread (have yet to locate matzo bread) with about a tbsp of sauce and a little bit of skim mozz cheese, a small bowl of white rice and a half a cucumber. So ready to be done with this. I am NOT a dieter!

I normally have 3 multigrain ryvita with lactose free cream cheese, a handful of grapes and a diet soda. Sometimes I have some french bread with a little butter or the cheese again and then have practically NO sodium the rest of the day! I don't eat much salt so that's not too hard for me. Homemade hummous is nice on homemade bread as you can cut out the salt in both then. For dinners I am having lots of veggies, rice, potatoes, pasta and beans. I've done more creative cooking lately than I normally do but have discovered some things I will cook again (like black bean burgers in homemade spelt burger buns). Definitely want a BFP this month as I miss my meat!

I eat lots and lots of free foods. A salad with iceberg lettuce and cucumbers for lunch. Matzo pizza for dinner. Ice cream, mike and Ike's, wheat thins and/or Swedish fish for dessert. Sometimes white rice.

I really think the diet has lowered my testosterone because this is the first month where i didn't even really want to have sex. LOL. Usually i am ready to go!

I've also been eating lots of cucumbers...i actually love green beans. Last night i had a little pasta with green beans and cucumbers mixed together with a little bit of parmesean cheese on it. I made this amazing zucchini bread for the boys and it's killing me, i want some so bad!! I am gonna wait a few more days...pretty sure I O'd this morning. Then i am about to have a feast. I feel starved. Praying i get my BFP this month. :/

Some of you ladies sound like you're not eating the 1200-1500 calories!

[Boymomsrock]

I think i'm right at 1500 which is way too little because i am very tall and thin. I just struggle with what to eat on this LE diet!

[weeziewoozles]

I try and get to 1500 too but seem to eat far more food to get there than most of the posts I see! I end up having lemonade and chocolate to get up higher! Not often you feel you are allowed to eat chocolate and sweet things

That wasn't all i had for dinner though! I also had a mini pita with homemade hummus and cucumbers stuffed in it.

What kind of chocolate are you having? I haven't really had anything but would love some sort of sweet stuff!! Doesn't that count towards your calories though?
