  Lets come up with a plan for support. Any ideas? I have always been fairly normal in weight but lost a lot on the paleo diet years ago. Since my wife came into my life, my success in this n some other areas has faltered. She tends to eat all carbs n not care much about her health or weight... I desperately want to do better for me and my daughter. 

  Iui #1 = unmedicated = bfn. Iui # 2 = clomid 50 mg = bfn. Iui # 3 = clomid 50 mg = bfn. Iui # 4 = unmedicated = bfn. Iui # 5 = unmedicated = bfp - miscarriage at 5 wks. Iui #6 = nov 2012 = gonal f 75, endotrim 100= chemical pregnancy/bfn

  I'm trying to cut out aspartame, and drastically reduce both sugar and wheat for our TTC phase as well as any potential pregnancy....   I'm a bit fat (no point in glossing it over!) and my glucose levels are high (though not pre-diabetic...yet) -- so I figure there is no time like the present to healthy up my eating and lose some weight.

   

  My partner and I are on a bit of a split-pea soup kick - if you guys like that.  It's hearty, thick, we make it without grains or much salt --and it's pretty tasty.   I've taken to both eating it on rice, and by itself with a sandwich on the side if I want something more filling.   

   I'm also totally into black beans these days - with everything.  On salads with rice and salsa, with chicken, with eggs.  I find they're great and filling, without also having a ton of fat in them, or make me miss bread.

   

  .... Still trying to break my Diet Coke addition though....
