Re: Over 3 yrs trying for a baby, getting fatter & depressed as hell It's really hard to know what to do for the best isn't it?! They usually say to do the baby dance every other day but a guy on the infertility network said he went in to see if he could produce anything for their IVF...

Re: Over 3 yrs trying for a baby, getting fatter & depressed as hell Hi Heather thanks for your post, this is encouraging! I've read a few people say this so hopefully it will be the case for us! Now we're back from holiday we're going to start planning our meals again so we're both...

Re: Over 3 yrs trying for a baby, getting fatter & depressed as hell Hi Rozziee sorry for delayed response we've been away to the seaside for a break! I'll dm you my email. Hope you're ok x

Re: Over 3 yrs trying for a baby, getting fatter & depressed as hell Hi Pebbles I'm really sorry for your loss. I understand your comment about it feeling like a lifetime- I'm struggling to remember how it felt to not have this cloud hanging over us. I hope you get the help you need...

Re: Over 3 yrs trying for a baby, getting fatter & depressed as hell Thanks again for your kind words everyone. We both break up tomorrow for 2 weeks thankfully so when we get back from our short break in Newquay I'm going to see the doctor to see if he can give me anything for my moods...

Re: Over 3 yrs trying for a baby, getting fatter & depressed as hell Thanks Rozziee that'd be great :-) Have you started trying yet or getting ready to? xx

Re: Over 3 yrs trying for a baby, getting fatter & depressed as hell Thank you Fillymum it's a bit of a tough night for us, lots of tears from both of us. The doctor was just so casual about it we didn't really realise there was a problem until about half way through the appointment...

Re: Over 3 yrs trying for a baby, getting fatter & depressed as hell Bad news today. Husband's sperm analysis showed there is no sperm so specialist says only option is likely to be IVF... But only if I can get to a weight I've not been at since I was about 11 :'(

Re: Over 3 yrs trying for a baby, getting fatter & depressed as hell Just want to say a big thanks again ladies- it's made me feel a lot better to have been able to say how I feel and I'm overwhelmed by the support received by strangers. There are some wonderful people in this world and...

Re: Over 3 yrs trying for a baby, getting fatter & depressed as hell Aww I hope you feel back to normal soon :-) I've penciled in a pamper night on Wednesday lol cos my husbands on nights- candlelit bubble bath, facepack and nail painting :-) xx

Re: Over 3 yrs trying for a baby, getting fatter & depressed as hell Hi Fillymum hope you're well x That's lovely, thank you. You've certainly made me see my job in a different light and you are absolutely right, there's a lot of people out who I know would not be able to do what I...

Re: Over 3 yrs trying for a baby, getting fatter & depressed as hell Hi Sarah, thanks for your reply. It's wonderful and helpful to hear that you came out of this situation with such a happy ending but I'm so sorry for your loss along the way. I can't imagine how painful that must of...

Re: Over 3 yrs trying for a baby, getting fatter & depressed as hell Hi yes I have to say my one success in life is that we have a very happy marriage and really are best friends and if anything this has bought us so much closer together when I know for others it can tear apart. I do...

Re: Over 3 yrs trying for a baby, getting fatter & depressed as hell Hi thanks for the replies guys. I've not been to the doctor about how I'm feeling because I feel a bit silly because I know there are plenty if people out there in worse situations than me. I'm also worried that if I...

Re: Over 3 yrs trying for a baby, getting fatter & depressed as hell Thanks Oceanspirit that's made me feel a little better cos I left the hospital yesterday feeling like a freak so it's a comfort to know it does happen. She said next time she'll have a gynecologist with her to help so...

Hi I'm having real problems staying positive and motivated right now. My weight is my biggest issue cos I'm now 19 stone and a comfort eater. I lost quite a lot of weight through SW before we started trying but now that's all back on and more cos I just can't feel happy or relaxed anymore...

Thanks both :) I'm hoping they'll regulate as the weight comes off. They were irregular when I was 10 stone though but I was a teen then. They're not as bad as for some though I do have a period every month pretty much but cycles are anything from 27 to 42 days long! x

Hi can I join you too please? I've just turned 30 and need to lose around 5 stone to get my BMI down to 39 so I can at least start meds to regulate my cycles as we've been trying for a baby for over 3 years and if IVF is needed I'll need to loose a further 4 stone to get my BMI down to 29 x

All night LONG - Lionel Richie

This is such a good thread! Looking forward to getting back on the plan again starting tomorrow so will try to remember to put my lists on! Had such bad food habits for so long I always wonder what a 'normal' food shop should look like. I want to try new fruits and veg as I hardly eat any cos...

Ah that's a shame! I'll stick to a roll then if I'm not taking rice or pasta. Thanks for replying x

Hi I'm going to re-restart the diet again from Monday so we can have fertility treatment and have a looooong way to go! :eek:Trying to plan my meals with foods I enjoy as I'm an annoyingly fussy eater and HATE cooking! Does anyone know if there are any wraps I can use as a HexB for my packed...

HONK!!!!!!!!!! :-D

hi all i'm turning 30 next April and i'm also determined to be slim!! got a long way to go though so will be delighted if i could get into at least a size 16 for it. All the best xx

Hi as far as I was aware any free food was free whether its as part of a meal or a snack. Never heard of that before! x

Thanks guys I'm really tempted to try one. I only really use my dryer for towels or if I've done a wash with lots of underwear in I stick just that in. We're in a smallish 2 bed house and at the moment my tumble dryer is in the spare room but we're hoping to need the room for a nursery in the...

Hi my washing machine has broken :mad: so am thinking of using the opportunity to buy a washer dryer. I've heard a lot of negative comments about them but only from people who have never actually owned one! :confused: My sister was in halls at Uni for 3 years (same room if I remember rightly)and...

So do you ask how an anorexic has 'let themselves' get so thin and doesn't do anything about it??? Both conditions are psychological, both are dangerous to your health, both can cause death. The difference- an anorexic receives help and sympathy, an obese person receives ridicule and prejudice-...

:D hi lost another 2 this week and got my stone award!!! yay!

another 1.5lb off for me. bit peeved cos needed 2lb for my stone award! oh well, it's still a loss!

hi i started putting on weight when i was 7. i think it's because my dad died just before i turned 7 and we we're often bought 'treats' from people who came to see our mum or given money in sweet shops when people in the village saw us out cos they felt sorry for us. My mum probably didn't help...

We get all sorts of threats to- i work for a courier company and the other day a customer was out when the driver attempted delivery and because my colleague advised it wouldn't go back out for delivery until the following day, or he could collect it from the depot that evening, the customer...

have to say i love this site and i'm quickly becoming addicted! i'm usually very shy and not confident but feel really at ease chatting in here and asking my stupid questions about cooking and stuff! to be honest i feel quite liberated to be able to let people how much i weigh and want to lose...

i don't feel jealous one bit! the thought of not having a single bit of solid food for 3 months terrifies me!!! lol :fear:

i'm the opposite- useless at poached egg

well i tried my new slow cooker out today. just popped some jacket spuds in while i was at work. came home, got the rest of the meal ready and unwrapped the foil on the spuds and they were dark brown all the way through. ended up dashing to chippy cos rest of the dinner was ready. really didn't...

The WW classes are better in my opinion but I prefer the SW diet. Can't have it all...

lol at this thread!

i've purchased my first slow cooker! woohoo!

I have to admit I don't find the classes particularly helpful. I stayed for the first 3 but last week I just got weighed and left cos I find them a bit boring. All we really do is go through what everyone has lost or gained which I find a bit uncomfortable cos I feel sorry for those that have...

Yay I have quark!!!!!!! thanks everyone

thanks both i'm going to sainsbury's this afternoon will try there x

Hi all sorry for another dumb question :o but where can i find quark in the supermarket? i looked in my local tesco but couldn't see it. i checked the cheese and dairy aisles but no luck :cry:x

Apart from hating the way I look and feel- the thing thats finally made my mind up is simply because I desparately want a baby.

I agree with Melissa- I also work in customer service and people are so rude but that's ok- they're problems just go to the bottom of my 'to do' list! :sign0151: It amuses me how many people think that by being a complete arse they will have you jumping hoops for them- you just do the complete...

welldone! I'm in my third week now and also lost 6lbs in week one and 3lbs last week. I'm really enjoying it- a lot more than I thought I would. I've done weight watchers before but always ended up putting all the weight back on and more after I'd lost about 2 stone. I think this plan is better...

Hi does anyone know if I peel and cut potatoes into chips, can I then freeze them so they're all ready to go if I've not got much time to prepare meals or just simply can't be bothered to stand making food!! :confused: Would I even be able to go a step further and boil them first so they'll be...

hi i'm the opposite- i only have EE cos I'm not sure if I understand the green/red days fully. If I do green- does that mean I can eat anything from superfree food pages and green free pages and then choose 2 things from HEa page and then 2 things from HEb pages in the food optimising book and...

Jen 3 the risotto sounds delicious will have to try one! i love butternut squash but it takes me ages to prepare (i must be doing it wrong i'm sure) however i didn't realise you could eat the peel so that'll save me loads of time lol!
