sugar free (and mad as hell)

I'm really excited to be starting a blog!  It's just a place for me to put my thoughts and if no one reads it, hey that's ok, but hopefully I can meet some other "infertiles" in transition to "fertiles".  It seems like a lot of "infertility blogs" I find are authored by people that HAVE kids already.  I'm not trying to downplay their struggles (to get to where they are now or the feelings they continue to deal with), but I want to present the side of someone in the trenches constantly wondering if I'll ever get pregnant.

So knowing that we might be headed for IVF in August/September I am now seeing a nutritionist.  We've only met once, but she had a lot of encouraging things to say and immediately put me on a "candida clear" diet.  This is a fancy way of saying "You have a lot of yeast [infections] and we need to starve them out".  This diet has lots of allowed foods on it like "meats" (yay!) but then it also has a lot of not allowed foods like "most fruits" "any bread products" "all processed snacks" "anything with sugar in it" (ugh!).  I'm a pretty healthy eater, but no sugar (not even fruit) is killer!  Especially for my mood!  Hubby and I already had an "incident" last night (which I'd like to point out was DAY 1 of the new diet).  We've had girl scout cookies (peanut butter tagalongs, aka the GOOD kind) since like February in our pantry, remaining un-opened.  I'll give you one guess who opened them last night.  Then he had the misfortune audacity to joke that I couldn't kiss him until he brushed his teeth to ensure that no sugar would transfer from his lips to mine.  You're probably giggling about this...you've probably have had a sugary treat today. 
But if this will help me have a less hostile baby growing environment then I'm happy to do, happy, happy, happy, can't you tell?
