Sorry I've been MIA. I'll explain why in my AW of the week.
Any updates on your TTC process?
Are you doing anything new to battle the PCOS b*tch?
How are you doing with diet and exercise?
Any suggestions for PCOS friendly meals or workouts?
QOTW: If you could pick between being psychic, telepathic or telekinetic, which would you want to be and why?
AW/FFC:
Re: PCOS Checkin
Any updates on your TTC process? Well, I got my first natural period since I was a teenager!
Are you doing anything new to battle the PCOS b*tch? Nope.
How are you doing with diet and exercise? Diet is ok, but not as good as it should be. And I haven't exercised in a couple of weeks.
Any suggestions for PCOS friendly meals or workouts? Nope.
QOTW: If you could pick between being psychic, telepathic or telekinetic, which would you want to be and why? I'd probably want to be psychic, but only to help others and I wouldn't want to know my future.
AW/FFC: We are putting our house on the market; actually being listed tomorrow. That's why I've been away from the board lately. We've been working on cleaning, organizing, decluttering, and selling off our saltwater tank. Our house looks fantastic and we are really excited about selling and hopefully getting our dream home! Our realtor is expecting multiple offers and for it to sell by the end of the week. The Austin market is really crazy right now and nothing is lasting long, so we're keeping our fingers crossed we'll have the same luck.

Any updates on your TTC process? We switched to NTNP this month, no clue how timing was (my body is acting wonky this cycle), but it'll probably go back to TTA next month (assuming AF shows).
Are you doing anything new to battle the PCOS b*tch? No, but I need to consider switching to decaf.
How are you doing with diet and exercise? Hit and miss. Once school is out (next week), I'm going to try harder to get in a good routine/habit.
Any suggestions for PCOS friendly meals or workouts? Nope, but I'll be watching for suggestions.
QOTW: If you could pick between being psychic, telepathic or telekinetic, which would you want to be and why? Telepathic, I would love to hear what DH really thinks. He isn't always the best at verbally communicating.
AW/FFC: I say I need to switch to decaf, but it likely won't happen. Lol
Any updates on your TTC process? Still TTA.
Are you doing anything new to battle the PCOS b*tch? Started the B Complex vitamin in hopes that it will stop the spotting from 7DPO on.
How are you doing with diet and exercise? Diet has been good. Minus eating regular pizza once last week. It was worth it though.
Exercise has been a whole different story. The last 2 times I ran by myself I had panic attacks (including 5 miles into the half marathon race). So I've only ran with a group of people since, which is only once a week.
Any suggestions for PCOS friendly meals or workouts? I am loving kabobs this week. Load those things up with veggies and serve them over rice. YUM!
QOTW: If you could pick between being psychic, telepathic or telekinetic, which would you want to be and why? Neither? Those are all things I wouldn't want to mess with.
AW/FFC: AW- I've now had 2 cycles of Oing on CD15. Without medication! It's giving me hope again that maybe we won't need assistance to get pregnant when we start TTC again.

Are you doing anything new to battle the PCOS b*tch? Just exercising and watching what I eat. RE wants us to do a more Mediterranean diet, but we haven't started it.
How are you doing with diet and exercise? Very good for the last 3 days. I've done something to workout every day for the last 3 weeks. I joined a healthy habits challenge, and I feel obligated to complete each of the challenges. I haven't missed one yet! Hopefully I can keep it up!
Any suggestions for PCOS friendly meals or workouts? I've been doing strength training workouts from Tone it Up. It has been kicking my butt!
QOTW: If you could pick between being psychic, telepathic or telekinetic, which would you want to be and why?
Do I have to have one of those??? I really just want to teleport!
Aw: My team is winning the biggest loser at work! I'm not sure how, considering I haven't lost weight in a few weeks, but hopefully this week'a getting back on track will change it!

*Not much. I had some mid cycle spotting/discharge that I spoke about in another post. I talked to my doctor today and she thinks it's just a withdrawal bleed from the Provera I took last month.
Are you doing anything new to battle the PCOS b*tch?
*Nope.
How are you doing with diet and exercise? *So-so. Diet has been pretty good. Exercise could still be better.
Any suggestions for PCOS friendly meals or workouts?
*Not at the moment.
QOTW: If you could pick between being psychic, telepathic or telekinetic, which would you want to be and why?
*I would like to be telepathic as long as I could choose when to use it.
AW/FFC:
*AW- I got some labs done last week (A1C, iron, kidney/liver, cholesterol, fasting blood sugar.) I got my results today and all my numbers were great!
Currently on Metformin and Synthroid
EDD: 6.15.15
We will be starting again this cycle. My period is ending so by next week...
Are you doing anything new to battle the PCOS b*tch?
No.
How are you doing with diet and exercise?
Any suggestions for PCOS friendly meals or workouts?
No.
QOTW: If you could pick between being psychic, telepathic or telekinetic, which would you want to be and why?
I would be psychic. I think that would be fun.
AW/FFC:
AW- I got my IUD out. I have to get new bloodwork done to have my levels checked for my metformin script.
