  • @aubyshortcake my husband and I have been married since 07/09/16 - Just a day off from you! (we've been together since 2009). Welcome & happy belated birthday! @girlalmighty08 congrats on the house- it is such a fun adventure! I am enjoying some quiet with a cup of coffee and puppies playing but signing off of social media…
  • Oh yay! I was going to write earlier telling you I was sending you good vibes! So happy for you; hopefully this will relieve a bit of stress for you, especially as Christmas Approaches swiftly!
  • Hi all, I may be the oldest here, 35 here! I am 5'10 and some change, current weight #182- this is the heaviest I have been in SEVERAL YEARS. Even typing that out was honestly hard. I did keto for about a year (off & on, messed with macros, let too many things slip in) and ended up gaining the 12# I lost plus 5 more. UGH.…
  • Hi friends, how was your weekend? Is everyone ready for Christmas; just a week away! So crazy. I had a wonderful weekend filled with lots of Christmas activities- it was nice to keep my mind off of AF for the weekend. I am CD4 today and 5 days away from Fertile week, starting on 12/23/17 - what a Christmas Present to us,…
  • Welcome, @aubyshortcake , dive right in and don't be afraid to post. I have been welcomed with loving, supporting voices, and I am sure you will too!
  • @Kirstie155 -eek I LOVE your hutch and how it displays everything; I do see that platter peeking out. love the holiday spirit you have + the doggo pic just makes everything better! @puffbrat - thanks for the pregnancy tips, this is partially why I decided as well (one of many reasons) to start going back to the gym and…
  • Ok ladies, update : Planet fitness last night was so awesome! So basically it was just another sit down, lol, but this time we went over any medical concerns, Short/long term goals, etc and then made a plan. I decided that I am going to take advantage of the "classes" they offer rather than jumping in and trying to figure…
  • Hey ladies, Another Monday, already?! @Kirstie155 I'm sorry to hear about Sadie BooBoo Kitty, it is always hard letting one of our furry friends go, I know for me, mine are like family - glad to hear you have an awesome boss though and decided to live life & enjoy those bites! @pezhed - I am SO glad the surprise was, well…
  • Deleted. NVM. Got it figured out!
  • @SheilAnneSmith - I am glad that you were able to avoid dipping into your maternity savings, one less thing to worry about! @pezhed - Good luck on planning for Kris' party, I am sure it will be fabulous- December does have a way of creeping up and flying by, before you know it is the new year. We just looked at our…
  • Hi all, a bit late to check in after Turkey Day, but it has been a crazy few weeks. Thanks for all who asked about Husband's Surprise party, it turned out FABULOUS; and the best part, he really had no clue. I for sure thought all sorts of little slip ups he caught, but he didn't- and even said "this is honestly the coolest…
  • Well all, just checking in! I am out for this month, AF came today, but I am actually doing pretty well. No crying, no dramatics....yet. LOL This past TWW was actually the easiest yet bc I was so busy planning my husbands Surprise party and finishing details that I had no time to think. This got me thinking, maybe the next…
  • @mholderr thank you for the suggestion about progesterone supplements. I am anxiously trying to wait out until the end of the year and if nothing happens by then, contact my OB office & schedule an appointment with my midwife. The new year will be just over 6 months and being AMA I think at that point I can (hopefully)…
  • @Kirstie155 We are right about on the same Cycle Girlie, AF is due the same week! I'll be crossing my fingers for success. Sorry your hubby is still feeling rough, sending good vibes all the way around!! Hugs!
  • Oh my goodness, I am sorry to hear about your husband, I hope he feels better soon and glad he is ok!! Thanks for the tips on the temping, maybe i'll just keep the thermometer in my night stand drawer, I can roll over & grab it and my phone is right there so I can use that for the light, lol! Thanks again for all of your…
  • Ok @Kirstie155 , You have convinced me to temp, lol. Though I am up way way earlier than hubby I think id have to walk to the bathroom before temping to avoid waking him - will that really make a big difference? I will look at the app you suggested as well, thanks!! We are actually doing a full demo/remodel of our main…
  • @Kirstie155 , thank you so much for the kind words. I am torn about the midwife, she is always so sweet and she was totally on board, so I am left thinking it was the nurse who responded and not actually my midwife, but how one would verify I guess I don't know outside of calling and asking if she even discussed with her?…
  • http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/1903-fit-fabulous-pregnant This group is around, I am not sure how active it is, If you search in the groups for Pregnancy, etc you should be able to find one that hopefully can be of good resource! Good Luck, we are still TTC, so I just kind of lurk in there but it seems like…
  • Thanks ladies, still no AF, was scheduled to start yesterday. Still some occasional brown spotting in the AM only...but holding tight to test. Not sure if I would continue to have light spotting (only when wiping), but we will see in a few days if good ol AF comes or not. Talk about anxiety, lol!!
  • I was thinking about this very thing last night. I started tracking originally a few months ago, honestly, bc pure curiosity. I have been on some form of birth control for so long now and never really tracked my periods, only bc I knew pregnancy/ovulation/fertile days etc weren't really a concern of mine. Now that I know,…
  • Thank you, funny you say you spent a ton of money on tests, I just got back from target after buying 2 boxes of 3 tests , determined to test in a few days; and started my period. I'm torn, feel relieved I don't have to wonder but now know for sure it is negative. I'll blame my emotions on PMS I guess. Thanks again for the…
  • The one thing I haven't done I guess is track my Basal Body Temp, I was going to buy one, just haven't. Thanks for the insight on the 8 months regulating as well. I think I am a bit anxious (well my personality in general is anxious, lol). But we finally decided that we would both regret NOT trying, and that has made a…
  • @kpk54 Thank you for your insight, really appreciate your thoughtful response!!!
  • Yes!! I knew about AMA going into it, which still MAJOR EYE ROLL...but I get it...but when I saw geriatric uterus I was just taken back! haha.
  • @myshelle1985 Id be more than happy to add, I am TTC (only few months in), but I follow Keto WOE and will continue to do so as best as possible if we do conceive. Good luck on your tests!
  • I don't know if I've broken down % on overestimating, but I do tend make sure I allow more room for error on the days we do go out to eat. I guess we don't visit OFTEN per say, but if we do go out to eat, it is typically here as it is an easy place that Keto/non Keto eaters can enjoy. :) Thanks for the info, will def keep…
  • @KnitOrMiss , great! Thank you for the insight, I wasn't sure if anyone had done this before. I tried it out just a bit ago to see if it would adjust accordingly, and it appears so based on comparing those numbers to the website. Good to know for future, vs creating an entire new specific meal! Thanks all for your input &…
  • Oh the fruit, I miss peaches and bananas like crazy! I do still enjoy fruit however, mainly strawberries and blueberries, but strawberries were my go to now before anyway! I do know though, that looking at previous strawberry eating behaviors, no bueno, lol! Last night I enjoyed 88 grams of strawberries sliced thinly + 1…
  • you have a few choices, you can just do a quick simple math at end of day of Carbs - fiber, and voila, net carbs. You can download the add-on (whatever the techy name for it is, unsure), or you can try your best to search for foods and note in the search NET CARBS. :) Good luck.
  • Hi @kikisf , I started Keto back in October, but fell off real hard for a few months. Finally setting myself up for commitment this time, I am keeping it simple. Not that I'm counting, but going strong on week 3, day 4 , lol. If you want to add me you can and we can be a support in that way too. you got this! :)
