Unfortunately, PCOS makes it quite difficult to become pregnant and honestly I am not quite ready. However, I don't want to wait another full year before I seriously start trying. In order for one to become pregnant, all of her lady parts must work properly. With PCOS, this is just not the case. So for now, I am working out, eating healthy, taking vitamins and drinking the tea above.
The tea gets lots of rave reviews and many stated that they have become pregnant within 2 months. Umm...0_O...The Lady Girl would be shocked if that happened.
However, the tea has gotten a few things on track and I will know how on tract during my next GYN visit.
This topic is a bit discouraging and slightly frustrating yet I haven't officially begun trying. Just knowing that this may be an uphill battle is daunting.
My initial problem with water came with my commute. I would drink lots of water in the mornings, probably half of the required amount and my commutes became torturous. I literally squirmed most of the way to work and had to RUN to the restroom. If there was a wreck during the commute, then I prayed and prayed that I didn't have an "accident". I tried to decrease the amount of water and started missing my requirement of baseline intake. Secondly, my job doesn't allow me to just "go use it" whenever, which again meant I had to do a poised pee pee dance .
NOT COOL.
Then I fell into this I hate water phase. The taste of it made me barf. I believe it was the plastic bottle so I ditched it. I bought this oh so cute stainless steel water bottle, problem solved. However, I still had the work issue. NOW, I have an assistant and things are better when I have "to go".
I'm glad but now I have to repair four months of dehydration. I've started to add a bit of Raspberry Lemonade Crystal Light to my work water but all others are warm with lemon in the mornings, and ice cold in the afternoons.
Bottoms up!
What do you guys do to get that lovely, womanly, sun kissed
look?
The Cheesecake Factory is one of my favorite chain restaurants.
There are many dishes that are quite delicious. One of my favorite dishes is their BBQ Ranch Chicken Salad.
In a effort to be thrifty and creative, I've tried to recreate this at home. It isn't as pretty but it's just as good.
Then after we went to Ross. Typically Ross has some good finds but this time it looked a bit Flea Market ish. Bleh. We also did a cruise through the mall, tipped into Sephora, Starbucks, the jewelry store (to look at engagement rings) and a place that sold great Beverly Hills Sunglasses. I really needed to buy a new pair of aviator sunnies but got these cute trendy sunnies instead. (I'll post one day).
After all of that, I needed a nap. One of the many downsides to PCOS is a low energy level. After a half day of work, lunch, shopping and picking up my car from the scheduled maintenance - I was drained. Therefore, I came home, took a nap and got up to exercise.
I am back to doing the Walk Away the Pounds by Leslie Sansone. It really works. It WAS my day to walk around Stone Mountain but the rain told a different story.
There are some things I am cutting out for good and others just taking a break. Are you guys observing Lent this year?
