Increasing Your Chances For Conception With A “Getting Pregnant Diet” If there was a getting pregnant diet that consisted of the foods you could eat that would guarantee pregnancy, most women would definitely go for it the minute they heard of it. And while there isn’t such a guaranteed diet, many women are ignoring the fact that a real “getting pregnant” diet does exist - in the form of eating right and keeping yourself health.
Yet, just a few changes in your diet can mean all the difference between difficulty conceiving and a healthy pregnancy. So how does this getting pregnant diet work? Studies have shown that a healthy diet is directly linked to a lower risk of ovulatory infertility and better overall reproductive health. Eating well also prepares the body for impending conception, drastically lowering the chances of complications during pregnancy.
Men have also shown major improves in their testicular health and sperm count with an adjustment in their eating habits. So what exactly does this diet entail? Surprisingly, it’s nothing beyond what you already know you should be eating. But when conception is at the forethought of your mind, switching to a healthier diet should be right behind it.
To start, stick to the 8-8 rule for water: 8 glasses a day, 8 ounces a glass. That means you should be totaling 64 ounces of water per day - and it never hurts to drink more. Of course, the 8-8 rule doesn’t apply strictly to water; contrary to popular belief, juice, soda, and any other liquid you consume counts towards your daily limit. But, with all of the great benefits water has to offer, including a decrease in appetite and overeating, better skin, and better digestive health, it’s not a bad idea to keep water the majority of your overall intake.
Cutting out junk foods is usually impossible for the majority of is, but cutting down isn’t that hard. Don’t forbid yourself the guilty pleasure of a piece of candy or some chocolate ice cream, but indulge in a piece of fruit or some crunchy vegetables before you dive into the sweet stuff. You’ll not only get something healthy in your system first, you’ll have less room to pig out on the bad snacks.
Protein and whole grain carbs are also a big part of the getting pregnant diet. Energy comes from carbohydrates, but most of us consume too many bad carbs throughout the day. Whole grains can cut down on the bad carbs we take in. Protein is always an important staple of any diet, and can not only help with regulation, but help you feel full, longer, which decreases your desire to snack on empty calories.
And last but not least in the getting pregnant diet is the prenatal vitamin. Sure, prenatal vitamins are for pregnant women and the growing baby, but there’s no harm in taking them when you aren’t pregnant. And when you’re trying to conceive, prenatal vitamins can replace your regular multi-vitamin to not only prepare your body for the impending conception, but also decrease your infertility rate by as much as 40%!

I need a diet plan that will help jump start my weight loss FAST!?
I’m 21 years old and 5′6. I currently weigh around 130. Up until my senior year of high school I had always been a size 00 to a 0. I gained weight right before senior year and became a size 3. Doesn’t sound so bad, except I don’t have hips, and all my weight goes to my lower belly and I look like I’m pregnant.
Ever since losing my full time job about a year ago and having only been working part time recently, I’ve packed on the pounds. I’m home most hours of the day and find myself eating whatever junk we have in the kitchen out of boredom. I have little energy and no desire to exercise. My diet includes fast food and boxed dinners, to frozen dinners and little or no vegetables. I am now the heaviest I have ever been and wear a size 5.
I need a diet that will jump start my weight loss (something that lasts a week or two) so I can go from there with eating healthy and doing some light exercising.
That is possible depending on your exercise and eating habits. If your really in need to lose weight my "source" is a good article on how to lose weight. It’s not your average typical ideas, read it, I’m definitely losing and toning

There will be many answers to your question, but my answer can be combined with any of them.
Interval Training.
If you do Interval training, you will lose 8X more body fat than if you do regular cardio.
8 times more fat loss.
You can google it for more information.
The gist of it though is as follows. You want to exert 100% effort for a short period of time, followed by a brief rest, then 100% again, then rest, etc. You do this 5 or 6 times.
A good example is going out to a park or field and running from one end to the other end as fast and hard as you possibly can (it shouldn’t be so long that you cant do it in 20 seconds or less.) If so, choose a smaller section to run.
Essentially you are sprinting the distance. Now walk back to where you started. By the time you get there, you should be rested enough to do it again.
Repeat for 5 or 6 times.
You will be done in 20 mins tops. That will burn 8X more fat than if you spent 45 mins on a treadmill.
Proof: look at Sprint runners in the olympics — ALL OF THEM are shredded. Now look at long distant marathon runners — many are not shredded at all… because they are doing regular cardio and not interval training.
I hope this helps. My brother did this and lost 40 pounds in 90 days, with a good diet.

Here is a day. Message me for a week. Mark me as best answer for a month plan.
One day meal plan:
Breakfast - Smoothie with 1 cup of mixed berries, half a cup of milk, half a cup of ice cubes, and 1-1 and 1/2 scoops of protein powder. I use power bar vanilla flavor.
Snack 1 - Protein bar. I use "23 grams of protein".
Lunch - Sandwich with low fat meat, low sodium cheese, and whole wheat bread. Vegetables, or salad with low fat dressing.
Snack 2 - Cooked soy nuts (salt them to add flavor).
Dinner Option 1 - Cooked fish (halibut preferably) with low fat lemon sauce and long grain rice, plus mixed vegetables or salad. Add bread or a roll if you need more calories.
Dinner Option 2 - Hard noodles that you boil, plus low fat meat sauce or tomato sauce. If neither appeals to you add pesto sauce. Plus bread or a roll for extra calories.
Remember to drink 64 ounces of water per day, approximately 8 large glasses. This helps to make you feel full, quench thirst, and flush out any bad stuff inside you.
This meal plan will not only help you build the muscle that you want, but shed any fat off you may have.
Goodluck on your diet.
