    • LE(Low Everything)


    Comments regarding DW's diet changes-
    I have always been a grazer that eats a ton of protein and veggies. I have also been a Huge breakfast girl so giving up breakfast was really hard for me but this month I was able to accomplish it every day!
    I started the LE diet originally very very strict and lost 10lbs in the first month. I ended up backing off a bit and gained a few lbs back. I had to relax on certain aspects of the LE as I just wasn't getting pregnant. The first 3 months I was entirely vegetarian and then added some meat back in as I wasn't feeling great and my energy level was poor. Still kept levels low but needed more protein then I was getting.
    I still ate a little red meat maybe once a week and I still had some chicken several times a week but ate much smaller portions and overall lowered my protein intake dramatically. I am not a big carb fab so that was a big change for me. I did eat a lot of rice this month
    If diet was used, length of time before attempt?
    6 months
    Did you skip breakfast regularly?

    Any Weight/Exercise related additional info/comments?

    Any additional comments?
    I didn't use OPK's this month so not sure on Ovulation. I O'd either the night of the 22nd or during the early part of the 23rd based on what I felt and EWCM. DTD morning of the 22nd and the night of the 23rd. Figured the 23rd was after O as I had dried up.

    Hubby had not been in the mood and I thought I had missed the window. When we woke up I jumped on him before he could say no. Figured it was too late but just wanted my man! Position on top and finished that way. Previous months had jumped and dumped this month just hung out in bed and played games with my hubby.

    Things that make me feel great about my sway:
    This month was the most relaxed I've been about swaying and had decided that whatever was meant to be would be.
    Things that make me nervous about my sway:
    I think I just may be meant to be a boy mommy. I am going to just assume it's a boy until I see otherwise and don't get my hopes up. I am happy either way I just want a happy healthy baby!
    Things worth mentioning:
    -
    Forgot to mention I did lose a few lbs during the 2ww as I was working out so much and still restricting diet.

    Thanks ladies!
    Maiden I'm only 5'6 but have a very athletic built which I think just makes me naturally sway boy but fingers crossed I did enough to trick my body to sway pink.
