TTC Girl - January 2012

[suregena]

My AF is due any day... this month is go!

Although, over the holidays I have had quite a few (too many to count.......) slip-ups. It's been very difficult. I hope it doesn't ruin my sway.

Happy new year ladies....

Well I am back from France and to say I have fallen off the diet bandwagon would be the understatement of the century!!! I have eaten so much french cheese, meat, salt and all things lovely that I just couldn't attempt in December. I would have blamed myself too much. I am pretty sure I ovulated on the 29th December so am going to hit the diet in a big way for my January attempt - I think it will be 23rd Jan ish.

I think I have pretty much caught up with most news and am hoping for a bumper year of BFPs. - Pink dust to all who want it! xx

Yay, suregena. I hope af starts soon!

Welcome back, maybe!

I don't think either of you should worry too much about your cheats. We're only human, right? I had fast food for lunch today and am having pizza for supper, so I definitely have my cheat days too . Tomorrow I'll finally be back home after a week and a half away, though, and I'll be back to the diet 100% in preparation for my mid-January attempt (unless I get a BFP before then...).

It's a new year and a fresh start for all of us. Let the BFPs begin....

happy new year everyone!!!!

hoping the new year brings lots of sticky, pink BFPs

im having trouble keeping up with this group, the topic is so busy....
bit of an update, im 18 weeks today, only 2 weeks until half way.
i have my big scan on the 12th, THATS NEXT WEEK!!!!!!!!!!!!!
im excited and terrified all at the same time, happy to be seeing bub again, but scared crapless that boy bits will jump up at me, like with my last son.

and dont worry about any diet slips, i have seen totally perfect sways , still result in the opposite gender.
just know that you gave it your best...

[pinkin2011]

Dannikins that is so true and also how many people say they never changed diet and got an opposite.... Also woman that have girls i am sure have pizza or chips or potato every now and then all we can do is stick to it as best we can. I went to a friends house yesterday they had a bbq lunch the only thing there i could eat was potato salad!!!!!! i was STARVING!! so i had a small amount and some bread..

Katie how have you been?? Did you do much for NYE? We had friends come over I stuck to my diet well..had a very very late night tho so i am still getting over it today! Hope af comes real soon for you !!

Hi girls!
This is a new thread but I recognize all the names!

I have cheated for a week!

Dannikins...I remember when you joined! I cannot wait to hear the surprise news!

[lemon2012]

I think I posted twice on this post,....I was confused!
sorry guys!

[pinkin2011]

[suregena]

My cheats the past week have been little chocolates. THEY ARE EVERYWHERE!!! But other than that, I've been good with my actual meals, except for the week of Christmas (23rd, 24th, 25th, 26th)

But suuuurely chocolate can't doom me too much. :x

But I'm going to hit it hard after AF starts up... I plan to go drastic... i.e., not a lot of variety, not a lot or any veg at all... like rice + balsamic and maybe that's it. We'll see how I manage, but I think I need my system to maybe see the same foods on repeat for days leading up to O this month to counteract all the bad Christmas/New Year holiday season that has happened.

My husband has been really good about taking licorice root 3x a day, I've been taking vitex and fibre (though I have forgotten some days as you need to take it 30 minutes before a meal and I forget the odd day!)

I've got the Piriteze (same as Zyrtek... Cetirizine 10mg)... RepHresh on the way. J+D planned... frequent release... hot baths... I'm hoping all those things will help overcome my chocolate sins. :x
