Let's record what we're eating to help each other

Hi princessmom! Getting close!

[BrightSky]

Bobster I might ask atomic about the exercise! I am a little concerned about losing too much weight as I am already naturally petite (although do put on weight easily if I don't watch it) I don't really want to lose anymore. I was my lowest weight of 49 kg when I conceived my son, looking back too skinny, but makes me a little nervous about the diet and swaying, although we did multiple attempts (I wasn't swaying and didn't have gender preference) I was eating a lot more 'healthy' foods back then too, lean protein and vegs, now it's more carb based so maybe that will help too!

Pinkin are you using my fitness pal? Spunds very low protein/calories today. Are you having enough?

My plan today
Breakfast 7:30 am- coffee
Lunch- rice, salad and bacon
Tea- vegetable fajitas (2 small pieces of chicken) and 1 small Greek yogurt

Today i had.
18 g fat
46g protein
1200 calories.

Does this sound ok?

Pinkin sorry I just read that back, hope i didn't say it in the wrong way. What I meant was that I feel like I'm eating way more than your day today! But same calories so maybe not. Your levels of calories look good, not sure about the others though as I always forget what they recommended. I just tend to look for low protein, low fat, low calorie foods.

Bright I can see why you are worried about weight loss but maybe last time your body was more healthy with all the protein etc and you may have been doing other boy things.

What worried me that swaying will never be 100% and I hate the thought of doing all this and letting it consume my mind and then it not working. But that's the chance we take I guess. And I guess if we did everything we can then maybe it will make it easier if we get a little boy.

What cd is everyone on today? I'm cd 14 and time is goong slowly until cd 20. I'm going to aim to dtd tomorrow evening and then cd 19 as doing every 4 days. Fingers crossed for all of us!

Atomic would probably say to get more fat. 20 g is a little on the low side (30-60 is optimum). That being said I have days that I'm that low. Today I actually would be but.i know I'm headed out to an open house so I'll probably not be able to resist the refreshments lol

Thanks girls. No bobster your fine i didnt take it the wrong way.

I find i am sticking to eating the same things daily as i am finding it hard to keep protein down so if i am eating 1200 calories im happy with that. I have a cheat meal every sunday night having that meal gets me through the week!! I have nearly been on the diet for 8 weeks now. I tried on my nice pants i brought while i was in the USA and they look like i am wearing a tent!! They are huge!!

Go pinkin! I always think the boy diet would be so much easier, but the weight lose hasn't been a bad by product! I'm also concentrating on staying around the 1200 cals, with no red meat, minimal chicken and fish.
Yep bobster, definitely eating more empty cals this time and I was doing things that swayed boy, that I didn't know at the time, just trying for baby! Multiple attempts, vitamins etc

[BrightSky]

Oh and today has been a coffee plus a berry and yoghurt smoothie (that I halved with my son), low fat cheese sandwich for lunch with a cup of tea and dinner will be stir fried capsicum and mushroom on mountain bread wraps with a bit of low fat sour cream

Hi ladies, I am jumping back into this post. Had a bit of a diet blip but am back and focused and ready! Yesterday I had 1404 calories, 44g fat (would have been lower but I just HAD to have some chocolate while I am on my period lol) and 35g protein. Hoping to have our first attempt in 12-14 weeks depending on my irregular cycles so this week is the latest I can leave it to get on board properly!! I have worked out that going vegetarian won't fly for me. I am severely lacking in dinner ideas. What do you guys do for your "big" meal every day? I find it so hard to cook for DH and the boys and then tuck into something not half as appetizing as their food lol.
