Hey Vanessa

That is so great you got a compliment like that its always good when someone says you look good or they can see you have lost weight , i saw my aunt on friday and she said she could see i had lost weight so i was mega happy with that too. your right in what you say i think in my mind i was still be ttc but i know i cant get pregnant cos im gonna be on the contreception pill and the diet pill so i guess i will look at it as perfecting my bd technique lol you right too my end goal is the same i still want a baby at the end of it just means that somewhere in between things will change slightly in order for me to get to the end and im fine with that , i think if i had to be this way for a year i was be stressed and proberly wouldnt bother but because im only doing it for 2 months then having a break i feel i can cope with that method just fine and in the long run it may work out to be a bonus for me. Im glad you decided against the condoms and to continue how you are i dont see any reason why you shouldnt just stay how you are , i know you want to get pregnant at a better weight but if your body is ready for it, it will get pregnant cos it knows it can.... ideally you would want to be slimmer but in the grand scheme of things in the end it doesnt make much difference everything happens when its ready and not before. I should take my own advice right hehe and stop worry about things so much. lol

Good luck at the dentists hunni , i have had several root canals , on front teeth too that was the worse my nose was numb for ages lol i hope it goes ok and your not in to much pain.

lots of love

:hohoho: Teresa :hohoho:

Vanessa - YAY on the compliment from SIL!! I've been getting more of them lately and it feels absolutely wonderful!! Sorry about the root canal - that's good about them knocking you out for the procedure though I would definitely prefer that too!

Teresa - Glad to hear you got AF and you can move on with your plan now. YAY! I'm sorry I haven't been around online lately, I had a crazy weekend and now my office is full again so it's hard to get away with it! Our time difference stinks! Are you ever on in the evening (well, late evening for you).

Everyone else - how are you doing?

I'm doing good, busy busy weekend...but a good one! My temp dipped down today so I'm hoping that I'm O'ing (please please please!! hahaha). Anyways hope everybody has a great Monday. :hug:

Hey Liz

I am normally on at night yeah , if im there you will see me sometimes im on as late as midnight my time so you will catch me at some point. I have had to make a dr's appointment for today cos last night i had a touch of a sore throat and thought it would go away but through the night it got worse and to the point now where i cant even swallow , all i have managed to eat is some soup and a soft roll and even the roll was a bit of a mission , some rice cakes which kinda melt away to nothing , i think i may be having soup for dinner too lol oh well i suspect its either a virus or Tonsalitus we shall see , i will update when i get back.

Lots of love

:hohoho: Teresa :hohoho:

I have the FLU coming the dr said my throat is very sore but its not tonsilitus thank goodness , she said that cos it only started last night i am gonna get a lot worse before i get better and she said the bout of flu that is around at the moment is very sinusy which is just what i dont need , since comeing back from the dr's my nose is feeling more blocked and im sneezing quite a bit feels like my nose is gonna explode very painfull so i guess shes right.

Oh well ill be all better again soon hopefully , goodnight girls .

:hohoho: Teresa :hohoho:

Hi girls! I'm still feeling pretty bad with this tooth... Hopefully the antibiotics will kick in tonight or tomorrow so the pain will go away! I'm trying my butt off to stay on course with my exercise, though the toothache is hard to work around! I still managed to use the treadmill for a while today and hopefully I can get through another round and maybe walk the dog tonight.
I'm way short on energy because I can't eat hardly anything. That'll be good for weightloss, right? LOL I'm living on yogurt and protein shakes since Saturday.

Teresa: After a lot of thinking, I have to agree with you. If I end up pg by some chance, I'll throw a damn party. There's not much chance of it, I used Clomid to have DS, so I think I'll give my body a chance to do the right thing by itself.
I'll admit that I'm a teeny bit jealous of SIL, who's pregnant....again. I'm totally happy for her and the family of course, the envy was a surprise to me! I've been fairly passive in TTC and I plan to stay that way for a while, but wow! I think I really do want another baby!

Teresa: Poor thing! I swear I've been sick more this year than the last five put together! Take care of yourself and try to rest. At least it's not a throwing up flu, right? :)

Yeah its not a throwing up flu its just an illy flu , throat , nose , achy etc i should be ok in a week or so. Dr told me to lay off the reductil till i feel better so i wont be starting that till about next week now , but have started the BC pill so at least im getting something sorted. I know you will get pregnant when you least expect it and even if u need clommid in the end at least you have a fall abck plan.

Im off now as i cant be arsed to type much lol

Take care and speak soon

:hohoho: Teresa :hohoho:

Teresa - So sorry you're sick!! Make sure you get plenty of sleep and plenty of fluids! No late night MSN chats until you get better girlie! haha

Vanessa - You are such a trooper...on the treadmill with a toothache! Wow. I would be at home feeling sorry for myself. (seriously! :)) I know about the jealousy...my BF's SIL is pregnant and I am so jealous of her! And I never even see her. LOL Usually I feel pretty good and relaxed about the whole thing, but now that I'm temping again I'm starting to FREAK out. Gotta relax. (deep breaths). We are all doing such good things for our bodies that they will work right one day! If you don't mind if I ask, were you overweight when you got pregnant with your son?

Hi Cysters!
 

Sassy - My mind is kinda going there too, I can make a clean start again Jan 1st - not that I've been doing badly but I know with Christmas dinners coming up and another holiday party on Saturday and so on and so forth...plus my exercise has come to an almost screeching halt, so I am planning on starting that back up again religiously in the New year. I am all about buying the clothes too, I thought it sounded shallow too but you know it's important to feel good about what you're wearing and how you look...it's just natural to feel that way. Plus I would love to be able to go clothes shopping with my sisters.

Teresa - How are you feeling? I checked for you on MSN the last couple of nights but you weren't online. I hope you are starting to feel a bit better? :hug:

Vanessa - How's your tooth? Hopefully that's better too!

Well girls I am still waiting to O....starting to get discouraged perhaps it won't happen. I'm wearing DH out with this BD'ing..and a part of me is saying, you don't want to get pregnant now anyways, lose another 20 lbs! Which I probably should. But it's hard to turn the TTC monster off in my brain. Oh well chances are I won't get pregnant anyways and all this BD'ing is just good exercise! ;)

Hey Girls

Sassy :sorry to hear you were ill and af was still mucking around glad your feeling a bit better now tho.

Vanessa : Hope your tooth is feeling ok now hunni if not hang in there it will be better soon.

Liz : I havent been on msn to be honest i have felt like i am dying just been sat in the chair staring into space , i have checked my emails and replyed to posts and that in the morning and rest of day ive been doing an inpression of a zombie, Im just feeling worse and worse as the days go on but dr told me to expect that , i hope this is as bad as it gets now. Keep up the bd'ing hunni practice makes perfect and like you say even if your not preggers your getting some exercise.

Take care all lots of love

:hohoho: Teresa :hohoho:

Hi everyone... Just checking in, don't feel like writing much. I had my root canal today so I feel like total garbage.
What a baby I am! I did fne in the chair for the whole 2 hours (so long!) but I cried the whole way home and for a half hour in my bed before taking a long nap. If it were 1 root canal I don't think I'd feel as bad but I got the bad news that my teeth are so F'd up that it's going to cost me nearly $6000 to fix up completely. No way can I afford that! Even with insurance and financing and everything, it's still just so overwhelming.
I'm hoping I feel ok enough by late tonight to at least walk the dog. I'm still comitted to losing weight, so I won't have to be fat AND have crappy teeth!

I'm sure I'll be ok by tomorrow so I'll write more. I miss you guys!

btw: did anyone watch the Biggest Loser last night? Wow! Some of those people lost so much! I feel proud of them and soooo motivated, I hope I can share that level of success even if I don't have 100+ pounds to lose.
I think I might top out at a 60 or 70 pound loss, I guess I'll see WHEN (positive talk y'all!) I get there....
I swear even when I was my healthiest and smallest I still weighed a lot. My old doctor used to joke that I was made out of lead, lol.

I sure did babble a lot, especially for saying I wasn't going to wrote very much at all! LOL, it's the drugs typing.... Talk to you all tomorrow. <3<3<3

Hey Cysters.

Just a quick pop in. Won't bore you with my long-winded posts. lol

Af is still barely around, just enough to be annoying. I'm kinda bummed. :( Found out that someone I know has not just one, but possibly two daughters pregnant and one was unplanned. I know everybody has a right to have children and they can't stop just because I can't have them, but it still doesn't make it any easier and esp. when its unplanned and they are not even married. :( I know that may sound unfashioned of me and all, but I can't help it. :cry:

Well thanks for listening.

I hope you all are doing well.

sassy : hunni i wouldnt worry about it , i feel exactly the same ive had my fair share of pregnant people around me in the last year or so and it does get unbearable , your not old fashioned your human...I think everyone of us has felt that way at some point and will continue to feel that way until we have babys of our own.

take care hunni

:hohoho: Teresa :hohoho:

Thanks Teresa.

I know fellow Cysters understand how I'm feeling.........

:hug:
