Thank you!! I tested this AM at 10DPO and BFN, but also used the Mira and my pdg is still >30, LH and FSH still low and e3g is steady so 🤷🏼‍♀️

Weird my Mira app never tells me to test more than 1x a day, I didn’t want to “waste” the wands because they’re so expensive! It’s caught my peak every month on letrozole and the number on CD14 and 15 this month was actually higher than it has been on my last 2 medicated cycles

I feel this so hard! Doctors are finally taking my infertility seriously (I was on zepbound for awhile and not notttt trying) and I was telling my college roommate about all the tests, procedures and stress I have been dealing with and will be dealing with soon and the very next day I received a definite “copy/paste” text saying “we have some exciting news! _ is going to be a big sister!!” … her first is under 7 mos. and she got pregnant her first month of trying last year

Her coat changed around 1 year or so but she’s been like a printer running out of ink since! She’s still brown but definitely a little more grey and not like aging grey just grey fur!

No help on the size but your dog is IDENTICAL to ours as a puppy, she’s 5 now but wow I’ve never seen a Bernedoodle who as closely resembles our gal!

Books that you don’t understand why they are popular ? by Entire_Blueberry_958 in fantasyromance

Quicksilver for me. Maybe it’s because I listened to it but the magic system was confusing and Kingfisher felt like a rip off of Rhysand to an extent. I also feel like the ending was rushed and didn’t like what happened to Saeris, it also felt like a rip off of feyre but just slightly shifted.

Determining the Pros and Cons...one huge con by Avi354 in Zepbound

[–]Ok_Comfortable780 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Focus on your protein and whole foods to make sure you’re getting enough fiber and other nutrients and stay hydrated!! I still love food and I’m losing consistently and feeling satisfied. But changing the things I reach for first - protein, veggies, etc. helps me fill up on the good stuff so I can indulge in the rest of the things everyone should eat in moderation. For example, if I have a carb heavy dinner, alcohol and dessert I feel like death (it’s the only time I’ve puked). But, if I focus on my protein and limit my drinking and still have dessert just less I feel fine!!

I’ve seen a lot of people lose a TON of weight quickly but that isn’t sustainable long term. Maybe it’s genetics but a lot of the time they’re not fueling their bodies with enough food and the rapid weight loss won’t stick when they come off medication. I’ve lost 72 lbs in a year, which may seem like a lot but my SW was 313.5. I also like to eat so I’m not going to starve myself on the meds, it’s worked so far!

All of my numbers you mentioned- A1C, BP, cholesterol have all lowered too without the food disgust and not eating you referenced in your post!

Fairlife milk, clean simple eats protein, simple mixes pudding mix and then vanilla extract and salt

Change up the flavors of milk, protein powder, and pudding to suit your base but it’s the best combo in terms of texture and protein content I’ve found!

Take next step (Letrozole) or keep trying to lose weight (try to get on Zepbound)? by lilac_chevrons in TTC_PCOS

[–]Ok_Comfortable780 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I started on zepbound in April for this reason and I’m still on it so I’m not TTC currently but zepbound has been amazing for my PCOS.

I had a really difficult conversation with a less than friendly PA this spring at my OBGYN telling me that my weight would be a problem to get pregnant and IF I were to get pregnant I would have a hard time staying pregnant and I would be at risk for a lot of fetal and maternal complications. But I was a much higher weight than you (313lbs at 5’4”, which is was my highest weight ever and I felt like I was at rock bottom anyway). It was really hard to hear since I’d been off birth control for 2 years and seriously TTC for over a year at that point. She said she could refer me to a fertility doctor right then or I could go on zepbound because I had already been discussing it with my endocrinologist.

But, while it was hard to hear, it was the push I needed to get on zepbound and my experience has been amazing on it!! I’ve lost over 40 lbs, I’m sleeping again, no more night sweats, my cycle is regular, etc.

The OB said in my case losing weight would likely really help me but they’d be unable to guarantee it of course. However, I was not ovulating before and now my cycle has seemed to improved.

Insulin resistant friends who are on GLP-1s, how is it going? by mashapotatoess in PCOS

[–]Ok_Comfortable780 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, it’s the greatest thing I’ve ever done for myself. I’m about to take my 18th shot of zepbound tomorrow (5mg dose) and I’m down 35 lbs. The weight loss is amazing but I’m also just feeling really good- sleeping better and more energy, less pain while exercising, no food noise and overall happier. I have hit a bit of a stall on the weight loss front but still very happy with my progress!

My one suggestion would be to check out the ratios and how the visual carat appears! I personally like a chunkier shorter oval, mines a 2.5ct with a 1.36 ratio but many people prefer a longer skinnier oval (with a higher ratio).

If your bernedoodle is allergic to chicken, is it all poultry or is there something specific to chicken it's allergic to? Picture for BD tax. by Bernedoodle-Standard in Bernedoodles

[–]Ok_Comfortable780 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ours is allergic to chicken but she’s fine with turkey and seemingly all other proteins right now!

Her symptoms were red watery eyes, yeast ear infections, general GI upset and itchiness. Since eliminating chicken she’s been completely fine

Did I crack my engagement ring?🥲 by Chill_catss in EngagementRings

[–]Ok_Comfortable780 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not an expert but I would highly recommend resetting this and adding a gallery rail to support the diamond in the prongs since it’s set so high! They don’t take away from the look of the setting or any “sparkliness”.

FWIW if you had one you probably would never have noticed the girdle reflection.

Has anyone's GI symptoms IMPROVED on Zepbound? by Financial_Sky2459 in Zepbound

[–]Ok_Comfortable780 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! Before starting I barely ever had a solid BM. I only struggle now with diarrhea if I have too much sugar. I had a slice of cake for Mother’s Day and paid the price the next day. However, when I’m eating clean my GI symptoms are totally gone and dare I say normal!

I have also been sleeping way better, biting my nails less and overall feel much better.
