Does my ttc a girl sway sound ok?

[Honeysucklelanegirl]

Hi , Hope you are all well.
Well Im going to do a girl sway for 12 weeks maybe more .I have been doing weight watchers for ages now but only lost 2lbs(kept losing then putting on).Going to do it propley now( as of last week)
I am trying to cut out breakfast but finding this hard as I feel a bit sick if I don't eat anything.
BREAKFAST...
a low fat muller light yogart with strawberries or raspberries or blueberries with either sweetner or honey on top and a crushed up meringue nest. (yes very sweet tooth this is my norm breakfast!)
or I have 2 slices low cal weight bread with strawberry jam. trying to leave breakfast as late as poss and trying to slowly have none.

LUNCHES....
sometimes either of the above, or carrot soup, low cal soup....on a Tuesday due to being busy sometimes nothing!

DINNERS....
low fat weight watcher dinner on a Thursday as don't get in till after 9pm.
home cooked meals including sweet potatoes,sweetcorn,peas,sprouts,gravey,cranberry sauce,pasta,lettuce,light salad cream,sometimes lamb,pork, (obviously not altogether ha ha ) not a big meat lover.
sometimes low fat yogart or ice lolly for pudding.

DRINKS....
loads of no added sugar squash,diet fizzy drinks.dont drink tea or coffee.im not keen on milk .

This is what I normally eat anyway but minus the snacks in between! i.e sweeties!

im a real stress head and get stressed very easily.Had to have a bit of help with this last year as it made me ill( money worries when could not work due to asthma attacks and 4th op).I have been using lavender to calm me a bit but still find it hard to get to sleep/stay asleep.
I was on asthma steroid tablets for over a year till 3 months ago.still have to take steroid inhaler though.

I try to exercise at least an hour a day by walking though sometimes I have to bike 20 mins then another 20 mins later when partner has my car.

No cranberry tabs/calcium tabs etc etc as been reading info on here about them.

got a few stone to lose am 34 yrs old about 5ft 7 weigh 13st 09lbs (got weighed tonight) want to get back into my 10 st mark again.

Am I doing the right things???

only want the one child and ive always wanted a girl so hoping my sway goes well and I end up like my mum who had 4 girls and not 2 of my sister's who had boys! x

Good luck with your sway- do not worry about not having lost weight before. I have never stuck to any diet before and have lost 12 kg on this diet. The motivation to have a girl is a lot stronger than the motivation to have thin thighs

It will help to go veggie and eat two meals a day. If you cannot skip brekkie just eat a brunch instead. If you think you will go over on fat take chitosan as this gets rid of it.

Are you going to FR? If DH is older abstain is not a good idea. Have you thought about vitex or saw palmetto?

Good luck

Hi thank you for the reply.
My partner is about a year and a half younger than me (32 at the mo) .Not sure what we are going to do till nearer the time (end of may)
was just going to concentrate on the diet to start with. slowly going to cut out breakfast and stick to the 2 meals a day. Ive cut out the snacks already, not as bad as what I thought it would be doing that ha ha.
I don't really want to try all these things like vitex etc to be honest.
Are you ttc a girl as well? x

Yes am also TTC a girl. I started vitex to sort my cycle out as after DS2 it has been shorter. I dont think it is make or break at all. As for Saw P you can drink pep tea instead.

The biggest thing seems to be diet.

Thank you to you both for the good luck. I hope you get what you want as well (a girl).
This site is brilliant ,so much research! I can see why a lot of my friends have had boys and 2 of my sisters had a boy each.
I know it sounds bad but I have always wanted a girl and so does my partner. One chance as we only want the one and im getting on.....tick tock tick tock haha.

I think Im just going to do the diet/ weight loss(via weight watchers plan.)counting fat,cals etc would stress me out. I will try to skip breakfast though. Don't think I could handle peppermint tea,i don't even like normal tea.
After reading a lot of essays on here I wont be taking the calcium tablets etc either.
Will prob get lavender oil to relax me though. I have been using a lavender cream to help me sleep lately.
What else are you planning on doing?x

[Funkyfry]

claphamwoodnutter, can I ask why your not going to take the the calcium tabs, sups etc? I am just trying to get around the whole ttc girl so just curious?

[Honeysucklelanegirl]

Hi, I was reading some essays on here and it seems that if you take all the calcium tablets, cranberry etc it can sway blue as your body is getting a lot of nutrients. Ive read on here to do low everything with food and drink. As in fat, protein, nutrition etc. Its called the L.E diet.
There are a lot of good essays on the ttc a girl forum.Im not sure where I read the calcium essay though. Im sure it was in there to?
Saying that though ive read some peoples sways on here that have taken all the calcium tablets etc and got a girl.I think at the end of the day its what you feel whats right for you.
I would love to get a personal plan from here but there is no way I can afford it what with not working propley and weight watchers costing me nearly 22 pound a month.Roll on the day I get to goal weight and don't have to pay haha x
Hope ive been some help.x
