Diet and too much weight loss

Tamara:

obsessed:

I'm not ttc till May

simple!  Gain a ton of weight up till March then start the diet.  Its the act of loseing weight that sways, not being thin

oh!! good idea!! 

you do not want to be on that diet for too long either!! I think Tamara has the perfect plan!! 

 that's what i did-gained weight to prep for future sway.  after having DS3, i tried sooo hard to keep on the baby weight (while bf'ing! not easy for me!!!)  i've managed to stay btn 122-125 (down a bit now b/c running after sick DS) & this gives me room to lose 10-15 lbs. & still be able to O

before starting girl diet, i loaded up on future forbidden foods-pizza, tomato sauce, etc. i figured it would help me gain & maybe help my body go into shock better when on diet

This is what I plan to do-well not gain a ton! ...but maybe 4 or 5 lb...I'm currently 102lb as well and 5ft 4, my doc wants me to gain at least 7 lb befor ttc as 100lb is usually when I stop ovulating.

I'm ttc starting at the end of feb and I am not starting the diet until the 1st of jan but I am goimng to start the french diet in Dec to prepare myself for the harsher IG diet.

As said before by other girls if you start the diet too early you risk your body wising up to it all and stabilizing itself. The body's waaaaay smarter than us! Damn thing!

Well for me unfortuntately I"m not comfortable gaining too much weight...I actually want to lose the 5 lbs. I just gained...crazy I know, but I need to be comfortable in my own body...kwim?

Soooo...I'm 120 now, want to get back to 115 (shouldn't take me long...2 weeks at the max I am hoping)...and then maintain at 115...that way I have 10 lbs. that I can lose...I think I should be fine at 105.

I just don't feel comfortable now and although my clothes do still fit, the extra 5 lbs. is making them tight and uncomfortable :(...not about to buy a whole new wardrobe! haha...so gonna lose the 5 lbs...and maintain until 6 weeks before attempt :)

 Aw hon, bet you look beautiful as you are...why are us woman all mental about are weight!!!...at least our DS will hopefully be less mad than us about weight stuff! hugs x

thank you pixie :)...I really am mental at times about my weight...I know it's petty and unimportant, but to me I put too much "weight" on it (pun intended) hehe.  But yeah, at least my Ds should be fine in that area!!

 Not at all Babydust! I have wasted many many hours of my life obsessing fanatically over my weight, while at the same time realising it's all a load of unimportant poop. You have empathy from me in you mentalness..i assure you I can be quite insane at times! ah-it makes us more interesting ..x
