Stuff we give up.

I'm on week 2 of no caffeine and week 1 of no alcohol. Last night I had unspontaneous TI because DH is freezing our back up ICSI sample on Monday.

So score recap, IF: 3 (caffeine, wine, spontaneous sex)      CallMeAl: Zero.

Just throwing myself a little Friday pity party over here. Feel free to join. Or to slap me and say "shut it Al and put your big girl panties on".

    I haven't given up much yet, I'm sure I'll have to because I have Pcos, but the doctors haven't bothered telling me to yet because I am a healthy weight, and I don't drink (at all) smoke or take in much caffeine (besides an occasional diet coke) What I've given up for if? My sanity and dignity? Control over my emotions?

    oo, can I join?

    I've been on AF for 4 *!$@*^ months and really, really miss a non-AF life. I want to wear cute panties again, have sex and not be on AF. Stupid hormones, stupid PCOS and stupid gyno. 

    IF sucks.

    I have a Holiday party tonight and no alcohol.  I had dinner at the PResident's house on Tuesday-no alcohol.

    I had a cruddy day at work, and no alcohol.  Maybe it's a good thing I can't drink because I'd probably be an alcoholic after this week!

    I gave up sugar, carbs, booze, our sex life, and possibly my sanity. On the bright side, I am the healthiest I have ever been, but I am just a tad grumpy:)

    We're starting meds in 2 weeks so I've started the caffeine withdraw (I'm seriously addicted to coffee this time of year) and limiting my relaxing glass of wine...

    I threw a major hissy fit when I got to work this morning because I already am sick of it!! And I know I so far have it pretty easy.....

    Sending strength your way that will pay off when you have an awesome cycle!!!!!!
