Advice about Diet Coke etc
Ok - Completely random sounding I know - but I think it might be important.
Im getting to the stage now where I want to start REALLY thinking about what Im eating drinkin etc. So Im goin to list good things I do and bad things I do (other people could do this in a thread aswell (?!?)
Good
I take multi vitamins/minerals and folic acid every day
I try my best to eat 5 fruit/veg a day
I sort of stopped drinkin alcohol for the sake of it. And I dont get drunk anymore when I do drink.
I do excersise of some sort every day
Bad
I drink about 5 cans of diet coke a day - Im completely addicted. Do you guys think I shoudl stop drinking all this diet coke because of the caffeine??
I have a cup of coffee on a morning before work
I dont take any other supplements (my oh is a pharmacist and he insists I dont need to take anything else - guess he knows best) But I want to do anything that might even give us that little bit of extra help.
Well I cant think of anything else at the moment - but the real reason I started this was the diet coke thing - trouble is I LOVE the stuff - sounds wierd I know!!
What does everyone think?? lol

Maybe try and alternate with the caffeine free version and then to just have couple a day.
Fingers crossed this helps. Babydust

I try to eat lots of fruit and veg a day and am very active at work i also horse ride about 4 times a week. I have switched to wholegrain everything and tried to substiture sweet potatoes for some normal potatoes. I've stopped alchol completely mostly because i can't drink whilst on Metfromin.

I dont smoke I dont drink I dont eat much chocolate, so when I look at it like that it doesnt seem that bad........ But I will definately stop drinking it when I start taking clomid. I dont want to risk anything after all these months of trying!!
Has anybody else given anything up to ttc or changed their diet?
