Oh dear Kitty, I can sympathise with how you are feeling. I am not surprised you are feeling like you could shoot yourself, but you need to put this into perspective and start again as neither your head or your eating pattern is in the right place. AND first and foremost you need to get your head into gear. You need to start again from go. You have a few things against you to start off which is going to make this a bit more difficult than Average Joe and so you are going to have to work around all these obstacles. Do you take any drugs for the underactive thyroid? Not sure what coeliac disease is but is it the one connected to diabetes where you can't eat gluton? So, to start with your diet is rubbish and I am not surprised you are feeling rubbish both physcially and mentally on what you have been eating. There is just no nutritional value in 4 eggs and fat free yogurt and if this is what you have been eating for these long weeks then I am not surprised your body is saying "up yours" and hanging onto every bit of fat reserves that is has. So saying that, how to move forward. Wipe the slate clean, forget what you have and have not been doing and start again right at this moment. Have breakfast every morning - a variety of fresh fruit and a fat free yogurt. Doesn't matter if the fruit bloats you as this feeling does subside. The first 5 weeks or so on this diet I was so bloated and passing wind - but that has all gone now (am into my 3rd month). You absolutely must eat fresh fruit and veg every day. If you can't stomach yogurt for breakfast, make an angel delight the night before and leave in the fridge, then in the morning chop up loads of strawberries and banana to go in it. You can half of the angel delight if you use skimmed milk or almond milk. Also, alpro do a chocolate dessert which is also a great breakfast with loads of fresh fruit chopped up in it. You will find this in the section where all the custards and rice puddings are. Don't know if you work or not, but low fat cup a soup is a good thing to have mid morning to stave off the hunger pains. Also, take to work (or keep in fridge) tupperware box of chopped up raw carrots, celery and peppers etc to have with your cup a soup. Then for lunch, a tin of soup with a bow of mixed salad. There are tons of varieties of soups you can have, both fresh made and tinned, you just need to check the ingredients to make sure there is no gluten. Baxters Health range of soups is excellent and really filling. If you add a salad or fresh fruit with this then that is your lunch. There are also tonnes of fat free salad dressings to choose from or simply squeeze fresh lemon juice and salt n pepper on the salad. Alternatively if you work and don't have the facilities to make soup, just take a big tupperware box of salad which can have a boiled egg, tuna (tinned in water only), prawns, chicken breast etc. Also, have plenty of fruit and veg always prepared in the fridge or in a tupperware box at work to snack on. You could also have a tub of low fat houmous for lunch with the raw veg - just watch the amount you eat of this as even the low fat variety can have a lot of calories. If you have the facilities, also low fat cup a soup. Then for dinner, there are so many options - jacket potatoe with beans on if you want a quick meal. jacket potatoe with chicken or tuna with salad, jacket potatoe with homemade coleslaw is one of my favourites - get a white or red cabbage, chop a quarter of this up very finely, add a whole bit white salad onion which you also chop really finely, grate up a couple of carrots and add that, then 2 tablespoons of low fat mayonnaise, lots of salt n pepper, squeeze a fresh lemon in and add lots of fresh coriander and mix it all up - delicious). You can make homemade stir fry and have this with plain boiled rice - use fry light and stir fry onions, red or yellow peppers, mushrooms, baby sweetcorn, and whatever other veg may take your fancy, add chicken or prawns, 2 cloves or garlic, teaspoon of fresh ginger (really finely chopped) and lots of soy sauce and serve over rice. You can make low fat spaghetti bolonaise - just make sure you buy the gluten fee pasta, chillie con carne with rice, jacekt potatoe or pasta (again gluten free). For something nice in the evening, you can have a fat free yogurt and 4 jelly babies or 4 marshmellows, or the alpro chocolate desset with the 4 marshmellows chucked in. Cadbury highlights hot chocolate is another life saver if you want something sweet and scrumptious in the evening - only 1 a day though. For drinks you have tea, coffee, herbal tea, water, all sugar free squash, all sugar free fizzy drinks. The key to this diet is to try and vary our diet as much as possible so you don't get bored or hungry and in your case, you absolutely must start eating properly and healthily. You must eat lots of fruit and veg. You can eat lean meat, fish, potatoes, rice, soup, houmous, so there should be enough variety to have a healthy and sustainable diet but it does take a lot of effort and thought - I am forever wracking my brains to find something new and interesting to eat. And you must watch your calorie intake to no more than 1200 per day and no more than 15g of fat in each of your 3 main meals (that's 45g total) and within that 15g for each meal you need to make sure no once thing you eat has more than 5g of fat per 100g for e.g if you have a tin of soup and it has 2g of fat per 100g, and the whole tin is 400 grams and you want to eat the whole tin - that is 4 x 2g = 8g of fat in total for the whole tin. And just remember, there is no quick fix, this takes a lot of hard work and though and planning, but the results will start to show eventually if you are sensible about this. So stop beating yourself up, forget what has happened and start again today, and eat properly and sensibly, no more of this starving yourself and just eating eggs! You have a great goal - IVF! Keep that in your mind at all times. Good luck and let me know if you need any further advice or help, and keep me updated on how you are getting on. x
