Re: WTO Weekend 5/16-5/17

  • Happy weekend, everyone! Hope you’re busy doing wonderful things.😊

    Month/Cycle: 24

    CD: 8

    WAYDTGKU: FF, BBT, OPKs, checking CM & CP, PNV w/Folate, extra extra Vit D3, Fish Oil/DHA, N-A-C, Calcium, Vitex, Ubiquinol, DHEA, Baby Aspirin, Ovasitol, daily moderate exercise for uterine blood flow, Progesterone injections after ovulation.

    R/R: Rave: It’s my birthday! I woke up in a better mood than expected, thanks to a bunch of HBD texts from my friends far & wide. So that was a really nice way to start this day. No rant today

    CS/Q: Nothing to see yet. 

    GTKY: What is one thing that you've been putting off doing during any extra time at home these past two months?: Such a good question! I have plans (haha) but haven’t gotten around to emptying my closet of all the clothes I don’t wear (which is most of my closet!).
  • @keikilove Happy Birthday!!!

    Month/Cycle: 5/6

    CD: 4

    WAYDTGKU: OPKs, temping, monitoring CM, Ava, PNVs plus C and B6, HIO during FW, preseed, seeing what my doc recommends from my CD3 blood work

    R/R: I slept in until 9:30 today (10 hours of sleep!) and it was glorious. We did a Whole Foods pickup and grabbed some Tex Mex for lunch and now I am doing a few hours of work. I am starting a Diet Bet on Monday because I need to curb this quarantine weight gain so I'm enjoying two more days of bad food, lol. 

    CS/Q: Nothing exciting yet. Didn't temp today with my big sleep-in. 

    GTKY: What is one thing that you've been putting off doing during any extra time at home these past two months? Eating healthy. I'm having one last weekend of food and booze debauchery and then getting serious about losing the 5ish pounds I've gained in quarantine and the extra 10 I needed to lose even before. I figure I still have at least 2-3 months at home so if I can't be KU when I go back to work like I'd hoped at least I can be skinny!

    @keikilove happy birthday!!
  • @legallykate@inthewoods23 @asf0613 @bows22 Thank you all for the birthday wishes! I was dreading it all week, but it turned out to be a great day! Our beach restrictions were eased as of today: we are now allowed to sit on the beach (instead of go for exercise only & keep moving the whole time), so that’s what we did. The beach was almost empty, the ocean was gorgeous, and it felt great to lie down and relax in the sun!

    @legallykate I completely support your decision to feast this weekend before the “Diet starts Monday!”😄 I laughed out loud when you said “at least I can be skinny!” That’s right, claim the wins where you can!



  • bows22bows22 member
