Diet + Christmas = SUPER tempting!!!
Anyone else being strict over Christmas Holidays? I had a few people advise me on here to skip this month, but even if I did Christmas day would still be exactly 4 weeks from my next O so I'd still want to behave! I am supposed to O right on Christmas day this year and we are starting to be in a rush to get pregnant so as much as I want a good sway, we also want a baby in a specific timeframe. I've been on the diet strict for 2 weeks now and have a full two weeks to go before O and I'm determined to stay strong! It is so tempting though with all the christmas stuff coming out in store.. but it's all for a good cause, right?
Anyways else feeling the urge to binge right about now haha!?

I'm with ya! I love to eat this time of year lol! I just got my +opk yesterday and I'm really hoping that I find out I'm preggo very soon so I can enjoy a few Christmas goodies. Good luck to you! Try to stay strong. A few small cheats probably isn't a big deal as long as your good most of the time

Well... happily I'm not too keen on English Christmas dinner (sorry UK girlies..) so I don't munch as much as I'd do back home. + I've been so ill lately that my appetite has sort of gone out the window =/

Hoping for another baby girl in 2016/17

I'm not doing the LE diet, I'm doing the French diet, but I'm finding more difficult now with Christmas. There are loads of chocolate, biscuits and mince pies everywhere, I am so tempted.
I can't cheat at all with the French diet, otherwise I have to wait another month before TTC. I'm doing a vegetarian version of the French diet so the only cheat I will do is allow myself some turkey on Christmas day, as it is still allowed on the French diet.
The hardest thing is being invited to peoples houses for dinner. I have to go to a couple of DH's aunts and uncles houses for dinner and I'm going to have to come up with some excuse as to why I can't eat. I'm going to have to say I'm sick and not hungry, which will lead them all to suspect I'm pregnant. I hope I get a BFP over Christmas so I don't have to deal with this!

If I don't catch this month, I am going to have to splurge Christmas and then wait 6 weeks before our next attempt.
We are at the outlaws for a few days and seeing as their diet consists of meat and high at food at any time, there's no way I could manage le diet whilst there.
I think I've ovulated today somewhen, so hoping for a bfp in 2 weeks!

Congratulations! I am so happy for you now you can feel compeet!
