    Thanks atomic! I'll take note especially since I'm still BF DS2.
    To get around potassium, what you can do is just not deliberately avoid it. It'll be quite difficult to exceed the 3500 mg potassium as long as you aren't avoiding potassium foods. I would add in a coconut water or some fruit to be sure you're getting enough.

    Thanks atomic! I just read ur stealthy pink sway!
    I have been taking ur advice about my calories and potassium levels.
    Morning abt 10ish I'll have :
    a cup of coffee instant with sugar
    abt 162kcal, 5g fat and 28.8g sugars.
    Lunch about 12ish:
    2 slices of toast 133kcal, 1g fat and 5.5g protein
    25.4g carbo and 254mg sodium
    With a slice of emmental cheese
    75kcal, 5.6g fat, 5.6g protein,0.2g sugars and 240mg sodium
    Some clear veg soup with 1/4 a stock ****.
    I was super hungry by about 5 so I had a small cup of diet coke.
    For dinner abt 7 is:
    White rice 242kcal, 0.35g fat, 53.44g carbo 4.39g protein.
    Remains of soup from lunch and sneaked like half a russet potato from DH's stew..
    So with about 900 kcals, I thought I could sneak in a custard puff
    before bedtime.
    My totals for the day would be about
    1261 kcals, 43.39 fat, 39.84 protein and 174.17 carbo..
    I think my sodium is prob close to abt 1000..
    Any feedback on improvements I should make to this will be greatly appreciated! I intend to roughly follow this menu with slight variations in vegetables used..
    I am about 5' 3" and 97 lbs, am still breastfeeding about 3 times a day.
    It is almost impossible to gain weight unless I'm pregnant.. So should my daily
    calorie intake be about 1500?
    Thanks in advance to all!

    Just trying to be careful.. Think this could be my last shot..
    DH bought me a fried chicken wing today.. Crap!
    That aside, just being on the LE diet for less than 2 weeks and I feel that my CM is not as much as before..

    Hi all, I've read some of the previous threads on timing and cut off but am still kinda confused.. I had DH do FR since start of AF and my cycle is about 28 days on average.. Shld I Attempt just once or can I do more than once? My previous 2 boys are conceived just by BD that one time.. I think I'm one of those who get ovulation cramps..

    One attempt is a good idea, even though you got two boys through one attempt it still may sway towards girl and it has good results, its possible that you were doing a lot more boy friendly things at the time you conceived your boys so the one attempt didnt make a difference? If you would like to do more attempts then the next step up is every 4 days

    oh sorry I never spotted this original q the first time: Re sodium, I think most of us are giving up that restriction because it's just so unlikely that it sways. People all around the world are eating tons of sodium and getting boys and girls doing that.

    Question, have you been TTC all this time and not getting pregnant???

    Always stick with one attempt. IT's getting great results for us. Even if you got boys doing it before, it's still a good sway tactic. Remember, if something takes you from 80% likely to have a boy to 75% likely to have a boy, it's still swaying pink for you, just that you had a better than average chance at a boy.
