This is a good thread - thanks for posting it buliej
I found that while I did not put in much weight during our cycles, that my body shape changed and I lost muscle and gained fat. I have struggled with body issues for a long while (and still do to some extent) and found the change in shape to be depressing - and an extra issue to cope with on top of BFN's. I get into the cycle of self hating/blame, depression, not exercising or eating properly, negative effects on body etc etc - and still am!

I'm not sure what the answer is other than we have to accept what happens to some extent and try and do what we can - when we can to be good to ourselves with food and exercise - but be kind as well. On that note- clearly there is a need for others to be kind as well - I cant belive some of the comments people have had - how rude!
