    A little bit about me

    Even though I've been here for a looooong time on and off...I haven't really inroduced myself on this board...and wanted to give you some background.

    My name is Lisa, and I have been dealing with infertility for 5 years. I blame my current weight on this...all the stress, drugs, etc...the drugs really messed with my body/metabolism. I can't believe how my body has changed, and how slowly I am losing weight.

    Anyway, I will be going through my 9th IVF (and probably last) cycle next month. I am nervous how this will affect my eating since I am an emotional eater. Plus, all the drugs I take make me bloated and moody. So, if I get a little biatchy, please be kind

    This seems like a great, caring and supportive group, and I am happy to be joining you!

      Yes, I've been doing Atkins on and off for years (check out my join date )

      I also have a gluten allergy/sensitivity, so this is the best WOE for me!

                Hi Lisa and welcome.

                Your wedding was gorgeous! I got married in our living room (One month after moving, what was I thinking when I planned that, lol). But getting married in a castle, now that's romance.

                Nine tries at IVF, I can't even imagine the emotional rollarcoaster that would cause, not to mention the drugs! I wish you the best of luck on this try.
