Ouch!

I hurt! I have run 25 miles in the last 48 hours and my poor legs feel it. I guess it may be a good hurt, but I just hope it goes away before my race this weekend.

In other news, I have recently started eating meals from My Fit Foods and I can't say enough about them! My friend Jen lost 6 lbs last week as part of their 21 day challenge! I don't know if I will do the challenge because it is super strict (only eat their food, no caffeine or alcohol, for 21 straight days), but I do plan to eat most of my lunches and dinners from them for a good while (my breakfast usually is decently healthy). This food is very healthy and actually tastes good! It is so nice leaving my workout at night knowing I have good food waiting for me at home! My favorites so far are the Turkey Pasta and the Killuh Green Chicken. The chicken is served with quinoa - something I've read lots about lately but wouldn't have ever gone to the store and bought to cook myself. Don't tell anyone, but I think I'm actually eating a few veggies with these meals as well! As far as price, it can be seen as a little pricey compared to the bowl of cereal or popcorn I might have on a regular night for dinner, but it is cheaper than eating out at the same time. I got 10 meals yesterday for $58. I guess it is also nice because it tastes like restaurant food, not that yummy bowl of cereal or popcorn or cardboard lean cuisine.

You need to come to the house. I've got a killer black bean and quinoa recipe that I'm trying to get Mrs. Greyhound to try. I'll audition it on both of you at once.

Still here. Still infertile.

Sigh.  Here we are again.  We knew all along we would be able to start the process for baby #2 when Sloane was nine months old.  I had said we did not necessarily want kids that close together, but knew just because we started then did not mean we would get pregnant then.  If I had only known how true that is becoming.  Silly us had started having visions of three kids.  The only way we can have three kids is to have things go smoothly, not lose embryos, and not lose time.  Well, so far we have lost an embryo and a lot of time in the quest for our next baby. I breezed through prep for our transfer in early May.  The stress load was so much less than before because I thought we had it figured out.  We had Sloane as a great distraction.  My lining was better than it has ever been before - by far.  Then, the day after Mother's Day, I found out it did not work.  And I was immediately thrown back into the depths of infertility hell....

Into the Donor Egg World We Go

As I sit down to write this, I'm shocked to see February 27, 2022 was the last post I've written about our IVF journey.  In some ways, it seems like so much has happened over the last year, and on the other hand it seems like nothing has happened at all because we are back to square one. I'll provide a quick summary of the last year, but please understand this won't even begin to describe the true roller coaster ride we have been on.  I actually don't think it is even appropriate to call it a roller coaster because that indicates there are some ups.  Our ride has been more like a train ride through hell. After our failed transfer in February, we decided to take a break in March to let my body rest a bit before transferring our next embryo.  During that time, a friend reached out and told me about her friend that hadn't had success here but did at CCRM in Colorado.  At the time it almost felt like a divine intervention, but I now know better.  We spent seven...

We did it!
