Yes she's Susannah/Suzy so we call her Sooz a lot.
The diet is meant to be easy to follow and stick with so if ever it feels undoable, something is amiss and we can easily fix it.
please let me know if you have any questions.

Veggie burrito/enchiladas recipe
Chop up onions, garlic and mushrooms and fry in a pan sprayed with oil spray. Add some tomato puree, paprika, coriander and chili. Once cooked and reduced a little take off the heat. Add pre-cooked rice and mix thoroughly.
Spray an oven dish with the oil spray and then place low-fat tortilla wraps on the base (I used Weight Watchers ones) each filled with the mushroom rice mixture. Wrap each up and cover with a low-fat tomato based sauce (mine was leftover from making myself pasta sauce and whizzed up to be smooth) and some grated cheese. Bake in the oven for about 30 mins.
Scrummy!!!

Hey atomic are cooked tomatoes ok in say a pasta sauce made from scratch using a tin of chopped tomatoes? I've used a tin of tomatoes in dinner dishes twice this week and I'm on cd4 so not far from our attempt. Also is it ok to do our attempt if I get my pos opk in the am an do our attempt that pm?

Yes. They are absolutely fine to have. Just count calories in them not protein or fat (unless you add protein or fat)
I have a full explanation of why it is fine to have things like tomatoes and potatoes (which some sites claim you shoudn't) here: https://www.genderdreaming.com/forum...s-edition.html

Thanks atomic I'm not counting things ie fat an calories. I'm just being very careful about what how and when I eat so by the time our next attempt comes my why of eating would of been extremely different to how it has been for for my whole life and this change would of been going for 10wks come attempt and I've lost about 4 kgs also I'm taking the clomid!!!
Last question is it ok if I get my first pos opk in the morning then do our attempt that same night? Does time not matter at all? Or is it supposed to be as soon as I see the first pos opk? So that morning because I'm using advanced Clearblue digital ovulation tests they are taken in the morning

And what about potatoes? And potatoe chips? Or other junk food like Twisties? I only have a small serving with lunch or dinner. No snacking in between just lunch at 12-1 then dinner at 6-7

Well, just be sure you're getting enough. I often find when people don't count cals, fat, and protein they end up cutting back too far and are unable to conceive for that reason. That is the reason why I have you guys track, is because it's backfired on so many people not to.
Yes that's what most people do, get OPK earlier in the day and attempt at night. Nothing wrong with that at all, still well in the wheelhouse of when you can conceive.

Potatoes are fine for the same reasons I lay out in that thread I linked to above.
For most people there are no forbidden foods, I just have them stick in the limits. Do try to make sure you're getting a reasonable amount of food so we can get you successfully pregnant.
Atomic, this may sound crazy but I’ve been reading about moon phases… I have a ‘red moon cycle’ currently which I didn’t used to have. Meaning my period is coinciding with the full moon. From...
