The Girl Diet and Christmas
Hi,
I have started the girl diet today. We are hoping to TTC from December. We will probably have some family around for Christmas, so it would probably be a bit weird to eat the diet in front of them. Having started today, should I have a few days off at Christmas will this completely ruin my progress until then?
Thanks.

My diet officially started today too! (although I have been easing into it for the last week) I am using Fitday.com to track my intake. It allows you to count things like sodium, potassium, calories, protein, etc. I am basically on the LE diet so I plan to eat on Christmas day and Thanksgiving day and I am also going on a weekend trip to LA in December. (how can I not eat there?) However, I am going to use Fitday to be sure that I still dont go over on those days. Basically, will eat less than I usually would, will avoid the big no-no's (like my mom's yummy, yummy mashed potatoes) and will have overall smaller portions. I will likely only eat one meal those days and have a small portion of plain white rice for lunch. I think the overall picture is what is more important. My first attempt will be around Jan 18 so almost a good month after Christmas.

Oh and I will actually be going to stay with my family for the week of Christmas and they will just have to think I am a freak. They already know how much my heart aches for a girl and they will feel bad for me anyway if I don't get one. I can tell you overall in the last week - when I really want to eat something I shouldn't, all I have to do is visualize my future daughter and the craving passes instantly!

Thanksgiving and Christmas will probably be slight cheat days for me. I will still skip breakfast. I will avoid the big no-no's like potatoes and tomatoes and lots of salt. Eat much smaller portions. Skip the gravy. A little bit of turkey and green beans. Two small cheat days won't mess up your sway!

which girl diet, I mean? FGD? IG? LE?
I'm still BF too but did the LE diet. All of them will mean eating less variety of nutrients and less calories overall that you normally would, so if you find your milk supply is affected you might have to eat more - play it by ear.

Sorry, it is the one from the ingender forum (cranberry juice, some dairy, raspberries, strawberries, chicken, fish), but less of everything.

No, but I would just try and keep up with it as much as I could. I would try very very hard to avoid meat if at all possible.
