Christy's Diary Entries

April 11, 2000

Hi Everyone,

Well, its CD29 and all is well. I am anxiously waiting for AF to show up. I didn't temp for three days, and it would figure that during those three days I would OV. So I can't pinpoint when AF will show up, most likely within the next two to six days. I'm starting to get baby fever "BIG TIME" (so my DH says). For a while I had a good handle on it, I was so focused on losing the weight that I put TTC out of my mind. I guess now that I'm so close to my goal weight, I want to start TTC right this very second!!

So here's the deal gals, please tell me what you think:

I have broken the plateau and have lost 17 pounds. That means I have 19 more to go. I have four more paid weeks of the diet program left and about 22-28 more days until I OV again. I can reasonably lose about 10 more pounds in the next four weeks. That means I will be 9 pounds over my goal weight. Should I go for the 9 pounds and miss another opportunity TTC, or should I take my losses (and what a wonderful loss) and go for the BD'g? I can't seem to make up my mind! What do you think?

DH is very anxious and wants to TTC ASAP, but he also knows how important it is for me to feel good about myself and my body. It doesn't seem fair that men can lose weight so fast, does it? DH can decide he wants to loose 10 pounds and will loose it at the drop of a hat. We women have to change our whole lifestyles just to lose a little weight. Not to mention, if we gain 10-15 pounds, everyone can tell, but if they (men) gain 1-15 pounds, nobody can tell. Go figure!!

So, any input you guys could give me would really help! DH and I can't seem to make up our minds!

Take care and talk to you soon.
Christy
