up 1 lbs , but im hanging in there

Soooooooooo......this week I'm at 237.9. I know that this particular weight is mostly water and so today I'm going to drink myself silly with water I have my physical tomorrow AND an appointment at the fertility clinic to discuss our options - we'll see if the doctor still feels that ICSI is our best option after the 50lbs lost on my part, the 20lbs lost on my husband's part and his varicoceles surgery. If so, we start the process after his follow up with the surgeon in January (so we know where we stand with his little swimmers).....Overall a good week though

This week I'm down 1.3lbs at 236.6. I'm happy with that since I did have fish and chips last night because it took too long to get home in our rainstorm last night so I'm not terribly upset. Have another meal out with the girls tongiht, but I'll behave and order water instead of pop to drink.

Hi Pam, how did your physical and appointment with your fertility clinic go last week?

Both appointments went really well. Everyone was pleased with the progress. Family doctor had no further recommendations other than to say keep going. The clinic agrees that even if the progress with DH is half of what the surgeon thinks it will be, we'll probably be able to do IUI but we have to wait until Feb for our next appt. His follow up with the surgeon is at the end of January but his 3 month window closes this Friday so theoretically, we're playing with a full deck on his end. The clinic was a little concerned that the met is not having as many results as they were hoping (I'm on day 66 of my cycle now) so they gave me a kick start with Provera. So hopefully we'll be good to start trying beginning of Dec and if the stars align, we won't need further medical intervention. We probably will though so not getting my hopes up....LOL

This is the second time trying it. At the very least she was concerned about my sugars and this IS a higher dose than last time. When I started taking it in July, my cycle went COMPLETE haywire but seems to be back to its tricks

I didn't see one either - I just wanted to note that I probably won't be around for the weigh-in next week either but will be back the week following. Wishing everyone much success!
