Mainly, I only think about it during the TWW. I just want to make sure I'm giving my body enough nutrients to encourage a sticky baby 
Anyone else worry about this?

Me!! I do the same thing that you do. Stick to the diet during my period and prior to O, and then after O, during TWW, I don't stick to it so much. I do the full fat dairy thing and all that.

I was put on a diet by my doctor. We were having trouble TTC, and she recommended losing weight. She gave me a meal and exercise plan. Her plan was consuming a healthy diet and not a crash diet, eating healthier was the goal, and the weight came off and the BFP happened right away, luckily for us.

I was a little iffy about it however I felt losing some weight was beneficial in the long run for my overall health. I went on a strict diet & exercise regimen, lost 10 lbs and got my bfp all in one month. I do think it made a difference. I'm not dieting anymore but am trying to stay active with walks.

@leelee: Yeah, as soon as morning sickness hit, the diet itself went out the window (veggies were the nastiest thing ever to me!) and I went into survival mode. Been keeping up with walking, but thats about it!

I was on weight watchers when ttc and stopped when I got my positive pregnancy test. My baby weighed 8 lbs 13 oz at birth ... I don't think that 2 weeks of dieting hurt her

I've never been on a diet but I do worry that some of the things I eat are messing with my chances when it comes to TTC. I still love to drink sodas every other day or so and usually have coffee with breakfast. I'm going to see my doctor on Monday and I have a feeling that she is going to ask me to gain weight to help TTC. So I guess I will be on a diet then.

I am trying to lose the 10 lbs I gained from the last miscarriage. I feel like if I cut my calories too much it might hurt me. I was working out a lot last time I conceived so I don't think that hurt me. It is just hard because there is no black and white answers for everyone.

My personal opinion (and what I'm doing) is "dieting" by making sure I'm eating American Medical Association suggested servings. I've found that if I hit my recommended suggestions for fruits, veggies, starches, fats and protein that I don't need the extra snacks that what cause MY weight gain. This, along with exersizing 3-4x per week shouldn't have any negative impact on the TWW- I'm hoping it will actually help!
-
@MrsLMA: What are the recommended servings they tell you? That is what I'm trying to do too, is to increase my fruit and veggie intake to at least 5 or more servings. And avoiding sugar
-
I didn't worry about it but I think it's great that you do. In hindsight, I wish I had been more concerned about my diet throughout the entire pregnancy. I wasn't the worst, but I wasn't that great either.

I'm hoping to try and maintain during that time instead of lose.
