Snack: two fig bars, handful of pretzels
Dinner: Vegan fried rice (rice, corn, peas, vegan butter)
Calories: 1208
Carbs: 208g
Fat: 26g
Protein: 32g
THIS IS NOT ENOUGH FOOD AND IS NOT ALLOWED.
Please, no one look at this diet and now think you're not eating correctly.
The minimums for diet are 30 g fat and 40 g protein minimum. That is starvation level of food intake and is the type of diet that wakes me up in a cold sweat in the middle of the night worrying about you guys.
While I do have minimum cal intake set at 1200 only a very few people go that low. By far more people are on 1500-1800 or even 1800-2000 calories. Maybe 3% of people drop to 1200 Way way way more people are on 2000 tahn 1200 and still get girls doing that!

If you have some reason for doing that (and regardless of reasoning I strongly urge you to eat 40 g protein and 30 g fat no matter what) I would really appreciate you putting that disclaimer on all your posts. Sorry, I know it's a nuisance but the alternative is then me having a nuisance when lots of people read this and come to me in a panic convinced they're eating too much. Thank you I really appreciate it.

If you can't fit it all in 2/3 meals, go to 3/4 meals.
Ladies, I know it's counterintutive but please believe me when I say, it's far better to start off eating too much and then reducing over time rather than to cut back too far and have to basically sway blue just to get your ovulation going again. PLEASE DO NOT STARVE YOURSELVES, you're hurting your health in the long term, your ability to get and stay pregnant, and even your sway by doing so.

I think it's best to just use paper and pen. The apps are really just as time consuming if not more so and are not always accurate.

It's very common to be hungrier and have less willpower in the 2ww. Just do your best and don't worry about a few slip ups here and there.

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...
