Another IVF

I wanted to blog on here, rather than on MySpace or any other blog because it does have to do with weight gain/being healthy and all that other jazz.

I got on the scale for the first time in a couple of weeks today -- 10 pounds
I almost fell on the eff'ing floor.

I can't believe it, but I knew it would happen.

Today is the day after my retrieval and I know I feel a little less bloated, so I can't imagine how much I really had gained....maybe 11 or 12 pounds???

Can I lose some of it before my transfer on Saturday? Yes, I can. Here's the plan:

No sodas, diet sodas or creamers in my coffee this week. No breads, crackers, chips or pastas. No candy bars, no Starbursts, no nuts.

I will increase my veggies, my fruits and drink only water, green tea or plain black coffee.

If I can give up my most prized vice -- Starbucks -- I can do this.

I had planned to make a butter dill sauce to go over tilapia tonight for dinner, I still will but won't eat any of it....I'll stick w/ the fish and veggies that I make.

More tomorrow when I comment on how the day goes.....good night dear blog.
