DIET
Did you follow a diet plan?

Yes

If yes to diet, which one did you most follow?

• LE(Low Everything)

Comments regarding DW's diet changes-

I was consistently on the LE diet (except for a week or so of occasional cheats) but as I got used to the diet I started to realize that adding a Vegan diet along with the LE was easier for me. Because I have issues with cheese haha. By taking it out really helped stay within the limits so much that I didn't have to count limits some days. I also drank coffee for the first time in my life, I dank white wine every night and crystal light. I always skipped breakfast and would not snack. I usually ate my first meal around noon, and dinner at 7:30pm. And my morning coffee with splenda was around 9am. I mostly ate for lunch: a bun with roasted veggies (zuchinni, eggplant, peppers) and roasted red pepper spread. (I LOVE THIS MEAL) and a soup. Dinners were usually risotto or some type of vegan rice stir fry with a salad and bacon bits with a baked potato and sour cream. Some nights I would have a veggie burger with salad or potatoes.

If diet was used, length of time before attempt?

9 weeks

Did you skip breakfast regularly?

Yes

Did DH change his diet with you?

No

Comments regarding DH's diet-

He ate my portion of protein....
He did nothing. He was however very supportive of me.

DId you consume alcohol?

• Often- daily

DId you try to limit caffeine?

Yes, I had 1 drink per day

Any Diet Details?

Skipping breakfast, NO snacking, coffee everyday with white wine, and crystal light. I made sure to stay within the limits but also stay FULL. I tried to stick to foods i liked anyways so that it wouldn't be difficult.

Any Diet Comments/Additional Info?

I wanted to start the diet sooner but it took be awhile to get used to eating so differently.
I should also note that within the 9 weeks I started off moderately strict but staying in the higher limits. then after my cheat I went hard core BUT only because I found my groove. It took me awhile to find foods that kept me in the lower to mid range limits. Key for me was I needed to be full and satisfied and it took mw awhile to find these combinations of foods to do this well. So I would say my sway (only be nature of me getting the hang of it) got progressively stronger/stricter. Not sure if that helps my sway or not.

WEIGHT AND EXERCISE
What did you weigh/BMI do leading up to O?

I was 155lbs and at time of conception I was/am 138. So I guess I lost 17 pounds in 9 weeks.

Any Weight/Exercise related additional info/comments?

The first few weeks I was doing cardio for about 5 days a week and then after my week of two of cheats I stopped but then went full force cardio every single day until conception. Even in the rain.
