Proud of: The emotional work I'm doing with the weight-loss. I'm not just fat but I also have a very unhealthy relationship with food. I've really been trying to pinpoint why I want to eat before I eat it.

Are you doing just IUI with a regular cycle or medicated?

That's something I struggle with, too, and it's just so hard to fix. Good work making yourself think about it and trying to make the relationship healthy!

You'll get there Amanda. It will just take some time to figure out exactly what triggers the want to eat, and you are doing an amazing job at recognizing that as a downfall now and trying to correct it.

I can't wait to hear what you think of them! And, I hope you are successful.

I'm really noticing lately that when I have a stressful day at work, as soon as I leave I start thinking about what I want to eat. I don't know why now, at 39, I'm realizing this, but something just clicked. It's a tough road and you're doing awesome!

nightmare_of_beauty · May 2014

Thinking: Is it 4 yet?

Feeling: Exhausted

No medication as of right now. I am doing CD3 BW tomorrow but I have never had an issuing with O'ing so I doubt they will give me meds.

Xan921 · May 2014

Thinking: That I really don't feel like going to the gym but I'm going...

Feeling: Tired, I just haven't been able to wake up today.

Watching: Not really much of anything at this point. All of my shows have ended.
Reading: House of Darkness, House of Light. @amandaf6383, what do you think of it? I'm about half way through and am really enjoying it so far.

Excited For: This weekend...we have no plans and I'm excited to just be lazy.

Working On: I'm pretending to be working on quality control for my last 45 minutes of work today.

Wondering: Why my body hates me so much. I never get a period on my own yet while I'm on a medication that is supposed to keep me from bleeding, I get a period. WTF body...figure your shit out.

Stressed About: Nothing really.

Proud of: How far I've come with working out. I skipped two days in a row (Friday and Saturday) and felt so gross because of it on Sunday, so I went to the gym first thing Sunday morning. I'm proud that my 'norm' is now working out 5 days a week for at least 45 minutes at a time.

Wishing: That weight would come off easily now like it did for me when I first started WW and working out. Not that it was ever 'easy' but I could drop 2lbs a week without having to go the extra mile whereas now I kill myself just to hope to lose .5lbs.

Loving: The beautiful weather we've been having around here lately.

I'm not that far into it, maybe 20% through but I'm really liking it. I like how she's approaching it like a story and not just an autobiography.

Okay. Every RE is different. Mine doesn't do IUI without some meds to increase the chance of a stronger egg. But not all do, that is why I was curious! GL tomorrow! I hope you get the all clear to move forward with the IUI - We're only cycling a couple days apart!
