end of the road?

Still here, still fat and sadly of the 150 people that read my last post only 1 commented (THANK YOU!) Have I come to the end of this blog? I'm not writing about infertility that is for sure. Not that I am not infertile - I have daily reminders of that glorious fact.  Odd, how such a productive person had such a troubled time producing!

Perhaps it time to start a different kind of blog? A family blog perhaps. One about twins? Not sure. What have you enjoyed reading over the past year?

  1. I get a bit sad about the lack of comments with so many lurking as I appreciate the insight and shared experiences of readers. I wish blogging was more interactive.

    I like to finish what I start and so as a long time reader I like to keep up with the goings on with you in twinsland. However, perhaps you need a more "specific" direction...parenting twins, twins after IVF, whatever moves you.

  2. I originally found your blog I believe through cyclesista. I was going through IVF DE and wanted to follow a fellow sister going through the same thing. I stuck with you as a reader because I appreciated your honesty and candor. I continue to read as we both explore life with children (my little one is 7 months old now) and how we will take on the issue of DE with our kids. Keep writing. Sorry I haven't offered more advice. I have struggled my entire life with weight and I know that excercise is the ONLY thing that helps me.

  3. Oh hon, I always read - sorry I have been a bad commenter! I hate when no one comments on mine too. Sometimes it hurts me because so many of my cycle sisters have babies - but I feel like we are friends beyond IVF! You write about whatever is in your life, and I'll let cha know what I think!

  4. Darling EB!! Silly Rabbit! We are all reading your blog because we love you and your voice and your story! Don't you dare stop, PLEASE don't go, I'd miss you so! (A little Where the Wild Things Are for you)...I read your last post, but you were asking for very specific advice that I couldn't give, unfortunately, and I thought you wanted an answer to it or at least someone to relate to and didn't know what else to offer, but I should have offered you a hug or something so I'm sorry for that. I promise to be more vocal to let you know I'm reading (even if I can't always respond to your questions).
    Love to you,
    Maddy

  6. :D You are loved. I hope you don't go anywhere....or at least tell me where you are going! I just have little assvice on this topic. I am trying to shed about 15 lbs and have been trying to eat less. Sounds kinda dumb, huh. I have been taking about 2/3 of what I think I am hungry for and seeing if that will satisfy me. Nine times out of ten, it does. So I figure I am cutting calories and will begin to lose weight... I should exercise as well, but I am so unmotivated on that front.

  7. Ok longtime lurker guilted into commenting.. I usually don't give diet advice because I feel that most of the time people won't agree with my preferred method of losing weight. I eat a Paleo diet -- no sugar, no wheat, no so-called healthy oils like canola, sunflower, peanut, soybean. Limited fruit. Yes, it's like lowcarb but with less processed foods. I've PCOS, so I should be eating lowcarb anyway. I ate pretty much a high protein diet when I was PG with my twins, and also lapsed into a high carb funk after they were delivered (long nicu stay, etc etc). Now, 9 months after their birth, I lost 11 lb in 4 weeks of the diet. Last piece of assvice.. find what works for you. LC, paleo, WW.. all shouldn't be crash diets. You gotta find something you can live with. Good luck!

  8. Sorry that I don't comment much anymore, but I'm still stuck in IF land and I'm not a mother and may never be. It's easier for me to just read and lurk than to participate. Sorry. I do hope you keep writing though because I enjoy reading.
