I'm just curious really. I know you're supposed to eat healthily and all that, but WHY??
My diet isn't great and I don't really do any exercise. My BMI has always been in the healthy range and I do a job from home where I sit at a laptop all day, from 7am until 5-6pm. I do run up and down the stairs getting cups of tea, going to the loo and getting breakfast/lunch but by the time I finish work, I just get an hour to spend with DD before she goes to bed and then it's housework, a bit of TV and bed.
We've been TTC since last May, but when you take out all the months that we didn't actually TTC, only for about 8 months. Had an MC last July (also had an MC prior to DD). With DD fell PG 6 weeks after the MC. The first PG I had was first month of TTC.
I'm having a Progesterone test tomorrow (and Monday as tomorrow is only DPO6 and the surgery isn't open on a Saturday!) because over the last few months I've started spotting from about 9-10 DPO. Always OV on either CD15-CD16 and don't get full-flow AF until 14DPO.
So how important is diet and exercise really?
I (normally) have my 5 a day, in various forms but I do eat crisps (well plain tortilla chips mostly) every day, a handful with my lunch and I also eat sweets. Trouble is when you're on your own all day, boredom sets in, even when I'm busy working I pick...
So today, I had 2 scrambled eggs on one slice of wholemeal toast (no butter or milk in egg and no butter on toast) and a glass of orange juice. Lunch has been a white roll with a scraping (don't like too much) of low fat mayo with ham, lettuce and cucumber, a handful of tortilla chips, some grapes and some slices of pineapple.
But mid-morning I had a handful of choc toffees and a cream cake 
. Tonight is fish and chips (chips sprayed with fry-light and cooked in the oven), with salad.
Sorry this is so long, just trying to get an idea of how badly my diet/exercise (or lack of) could be impacting TTC...
