Sorry I didn’t see this post before. I guess my thinking was because I wasn’t underweight and it just seems to have been the exercise that triggered it, could I just cut back on exercise to resolve it, and try to lose weight through eating fewer calories. But trying to conceive is the priority and I don’t want to…

Thanks both! I’m not currently doing any exercise and not sure I dare introduce any as that seems to have been the trigger for my periods going awol. Because of that my TDEE is 1621. I’ve definitely been eating much more than that so I’ll try sticking to 1621 and see how that goes.

No, I am a bit worried it's something like that. My mum had ovarian cancer so have family history. I'll ask about ultrasound when I get the blood results back, assuming they don't give me a concrete answer. Thanks everyone for replies.

I'd quite like it to be ovulation but don't think I'm ovulating - I'm pcos. Have been tracking (as far as you can with pcos) and never hit 'peak' this month.

Thanks everybody. It actually hadn't occurred to me that there's no issue with eating sweeteners - I just assumed they were probably bad for me! But trying to shake off the need for sweet things sounds sensible. I'll try different teas and adding fruit to water, that sounds like a good plan.

That's good advice, I do run regularly and always want water after my run. It's just the other times I crave more interesting liquids. Maybe I need to run more! Thanks.

I like the BBC Good Food ones, like this: http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/content/healthy-diet-plan-week-1 Even if you don't want to do all of it they have a good shopping list function so you can stick all the ingredients for a number of recipes on a list and it'll add up the quantities you need across recipes. Using that…

I've been hopeless at posting my progress but I'm on 199/200km. Not quite sure why I didn't run a bit extra this morning to meet my goal but it should be good motivation for a final run before the end of the year :)

Hi everyone, totally new to this thread and running challenges, but not to running - going to aim for 125 miles. Which feels incredibly high but I need something to keep me focused during the season of gluttony!
