Sugar

Because I am going to cycle next month, I have put myself on as strict as a m.acrobioti.c diet as I can muster.

I am insane.

If you read The In.fertility Cu.re (as I did) and was frustrated by her scanty dietary information. I'm supposed to eat seaweed, fine. Can I have a recipe?

My husband read it (those parts, at least) and made the pronouncement: It's m.acrobioti.c. (or at least, it incorporates some elements).

Um. Okay. (I grew up on fast food. I know nothing of nutrition).

So for the next two months, I will live without sugar, coffee, chocolate, baked goods and all sorts of other deliciousness.

I've got to do something to grow more than 4 follies.

Yikes.

You are a brave, brave woman. No chocolate - could not do it.

Have you considered DHEA? It is supposed to help with us poor responders.

Yikes. I think I would rather shove bamboo under my finger nails than give up sugar!

Are you allowed any kind of sushi? California Rolls have seaweed in em :) Thats as close to a macrobiotic diet as you will find me :)

That sounds pretty heavy-duty. Cheering you on. Hey - are there any tickers available for "days without chocolate"? Or would that just serve as a too-painful reminder...?
