I have gained weight!!!!!!! Help.... Mood
Sunday, June 28, 2009 | A General Update story

Gosh! I gained 5 lbs since the whole thing started last month. I am not sure why, maybe the medications, maybe the stress.....

 

I had lost 14 lbs since Jan 2009 and looks like it is going back up.

My plan has been to eat small portions frequently of healthy foods and keep walking every day. I have not made any weight loss goals per week. I am continuing with my plan but no more weight loss just weight gain this last month. I just do not want to gain any more weight. I am planning to check with my RE if the medications:BCP n Lupron make you gain weight. Anybody know if it is so? My RE did say I do not need to worry about losing weight before starting IVF. I was 164 lbs( now 169lbs) and 5'5" and that makes me overweight. He did say I should start IVF this cycle since my FSH and estradiol looks good this cycle.

 

I am not sure what to do. I am going to go forward with the IVF cycle. My question is:  how can I stem the weight gain ?

 

Any helpful hints as to what i should do?.
