Pounds

I am very discouraged today. It appears I am about 6 pounds overweight than when I started running 4 times a week 1 month ago. I know they say that you gain some muscle when you start excercising but still........ I have a doctors appointment on the 29th and then start Gonal F and Menopur. I was hoping to weigh at least 4 pounds less than my starting weight(Weight 1 month ago.) Maybe it is the pill or the Lupron shot?

So I am now counting calories. I have had an account for along time now with caloriecount.com. It appears I have to consume 1200 calories a day to loose weight. So lets see how that goes.

Yesterday was last day of BCP so only on Lupron now.

The bread making is going well ....made two more loaves of bread. The thing is they are getting a little bit hard over time. Does anybody know how to avoid this?

I plan to go to the library and borrow a couple of books that have been recommended by book clubs. The plan is to try and stay distracted and occupied the next one month. I am excited but at the same time nervous. Its exciting to think that next month by Gods grace, on this date I could be pregnant.

Hoping ....

Thanks all.

  1. Hi...I'm sorry to read about your daughter Imani. What a gorgeous name for your daughter. Welcome to blogging. I can certainly relate to the world completely going haywire. Our baby girl died in July 2007 and our baby boy died in July 2009. Life's never going to be the same again.

    Take care and all the best with your IVFing.

  2. Wanted to let you know how sorry I am for the loss of you daughter. Please know that you're not alone, and there's a world of people out there (in here?) who will listen if and when you're ever ready to talk through that story.

    Loss on top of IF is especially hard. Thinking of you all.
