Ha I gotcha beat most nights we are both in bed at 9pm and asleep by 930pm. DH it's more like 901pm once head hits the pillow. Saturday night we might stay up til 10

vlagrl29 · April 2017

11pm for me but I don't get up until 8

ladipale · April 2017

@SP128 - us either! My DH likes to be asleep by 10pm - although we let loose about once a month or so... you can still get drunk by 10pm!

amberruka · April 2017

Old fart here too....eat dinner 8:30, asleep on couch by 9:15

. But we both naturally get up by 6:30am or so (even on weekends).

Mack2342 · April 2017

We get up at 530am during the week and I get up at 6am on weekends. DH sleeps in until 7 or 8am. Total old farts in this household

SP128 · April 2017

Oh and I can barely sleep past 6. Work days I have a harder time waking up. Weekends and vacations, it's rise and shine time. Can't sleep. It's the aging thing

ladipale · April 2017

Thanks for all the convo this week ladies!! Been so fun checking this thread today xoxo

vlagrl29 · April 2017

Freelance life over here and I've never been a morning person. You bet when I worked corporate I was passed out by 9:30 and up at 6:30 but that's been 7 years.

ladipale · April 2017

I'm one of those wacky up all the time people - morning person for workouts but get my work done late at night when no one can bother me! I'll be up working until about midnight tonight i'd guess....

hdaley · April 2017

How is everyone doing in this sucky WTO? The weather has got me down and feeling lazy and unmotivated.

MimoCa · April 2017

I'm here with you ladies. Been in and out. As far as going out to clubs and bars. forget it lol! I even get tired by seeing it in movies and tv lmfao!

Mack2342 · April 2017

@MimoCa. Lol. I can't hang either. We went to dinner with friends. I decided not to drink since I'm taking fertility drugs and we were home by 1000pm

Beautiful weather in CA today - got DH to take a break from work to join me on a 6 mile hike this morning and it was fabulous!

Trying to get back in shape with healthy eating habits is hard when you've been wallowing in sadness and frustration with a diet that consisted predominantly of chocolate for 9 months. I've been without chocolate for 1 week (which has been really hard!!!), but I'm feeling better already!

Is anyone else trying hard (or struggling) to eat healthy and exercise?

vlagrl29 · April 2017

@weareturtles - a week without chocolate? You are a brave woman

My advice on exercise is to find some form of it that you enjoy because then you will want to do it. You'd never find me running for sure. Also, don't get caught up on the calories - just try and eat as clean as you can and it's ok to have 1 cheat meal every week.

Mack2342 · May 2017

@weareturtles. I'm with you on the struggle. I teach aerobics so I get exercise it's just the eating that I need to get back in control

weareturtles · May 2017

@vlagrl29 - Brave or crazy, I suppose. I'm not good at chocolate in moderation, so I am going to have to figure that one out. I have always been athletic and exercise regularly, but the surgeries and everything I've gone through in the past 9 months made that complicated and pulled me from the gym for the majority of it. I am getting back into the swing of it as far as exercise goes, but my eating habits have been pretty much "stress" eating all the time for the past 9 months, which made me feel crappier. I've changed up what I have around the house and in the fridge and it's going well so far this week. I just hope I can keep it up!

@Mack2342 - I hear you! Food has been comfort for me at times like when I cannot exercise because I have a balloon in my uterus. I've developed some bad habits, now I need to get back to good habits.

vlagrl29 · May 2017

@weareturtles - I'm sure it's been hard for you the last several months. GL with getting back on the exercise train and eating healthy.

dpjennifer · May 2017

@weareturtles Struggling to lose weight and be healthy here! I have to drop 21 pounds (15 now) before they'll do the progesterone biopsy. So benched until then. Down 5 pounds already! I did a no sugar challenge last week with a friend (Weekdays only) and it was really hard.

Mack2342 · May 2017

Maybe we could something on here to keep each us of motivated towards our goals?

msstephanielynn · May 2017

@mack2342 Seriously, my status is Netflix and bed by 9pm, haha!

@weareturtles This has been my struggle too. I so badly want to start an intense exercise program (one of the beachbody ones) with my husband but over the past few months I have been either pregnant or miscarrying. I've been trying to shift my focus on healthy eating and telling myself that healthy food choices will make a healthy little home for a future baby. But dang ben and jerrys keeps calling my name!

dpjennifer · May 2017

@msstephanielynn I almost punched the doctor who told me I needed to lose 21 lbs. to have my biopsy in the face. I'm like... dude, I lose weight and tone up, get pregnant and am too tired to do a lot of exercise (plus I'm not allowed to skate which is my #1 type of cardio), I'm running around for bloodwork and everything else, I get bloated even though I don't tend to 'gain' weight, and then I miscarry and am depressed and in pain and upset and I gain weight on top of the bloating. Just leave me alone dude.

Trying to stay on top of exercising and healthy eating is difficult when you're constantly TTCAL and miscarrying for sure!

ladipale · May 2017

CD8 - and after a weekend of mountain biking I'm a little sore. better get it together in next couple of days!!

hdaley · May 2017

Cd 10 here. Had some good clean out the swimmers sex last night. Lol

vlagrl29 · May 2017

So funny @hdaley - we had sex over the weekend and it had been a week. I told DH next cycle he should hold off a week and then BD when I'm fertile.

BelhurstBride · May 2017

I missed the conversation but I'm also usually in bed around 8 or 9 most nights. I get up at 5 during the week to work out.

Currently CD9. I whipped my thermometer out again this month. I haven't used it since we were TTC DD1.

ladipale · May 2017

CD9 and hitting my fertile window (I have short cycles....) come on biology - get it together this month!

SP128 · May 2017

@ladipale cheering your body on
