It's happening!!! FET 4 is officially moving forward.
The official weigh in this morning was 5.9 lbs less than last Thursday's weigh in. The unofficial weigh in on my own scale showed I weighed 6.2 lbs less than last Thursday (in the same clothes) so at least now I know to expect approx a half lb different between the two scales.
I was nervous about the weight so I skipped breakfast or drinking water and of course there were issues getting blood. Lots of poking, smoothing, feeling, and two sticks later they had what they needed. They told me that they have to wait for the bloodwork results to come back to make sure I didn't ovulate during the last week which made me anxious all day waiting for results.
My nurse called around 3 pm and left a voicemail. She sounded kinda bummed so at first I thought it was bad news but she said everything looked good. First shot was tonight and off we go.
I took a break from the strict diet for a celebration dinner with my husband. I think I'll get back to it tomorrow and stick to it a while longer though. It's been really exciting to see such fast results, and while I was drinking tons of water I never really felt hungry. We'll see - taking it day by day. In the meantime I'm glad I was able to get accomplished what needed to get done to start this. I hope it continues with less anxiety.
Wow, that's great news! How did you lose 6 lbs. in a week?!?! I will need your strict diet instructions this winter!
ReplyDeleteMainly veggies, lean protein like chicken breast/eggs/fish, and lots of water - nearly 70 oz every other day. I aimed to limit it to 1200 calories or less a day. It's a strict diet but works every time!
