so didn't really have any aches or anything after dinner last night.

Increased collagen tablets to two at a time. I was looking back over my program page, and the cycle before I started on BO I had some really massive aches and pains when I was only taking MSM and collagen. I was taking between 2-3 collagen tabs and at least 1/2 teaspoon of MSM two times per day. But since I have started BO I have only been taking 1 collagen tab in the morning and evening, and only 1/2 teaspoon of MSM in the morning.

Does anyone have any thoughts on collagen? It was funny because I noticed that after I increased collagen for awhile to 3 tablets two times per day, I stopped having sensations, so I reduced it and started getting them again.... AGAIN, its really tricky to know if it was that or whether it was just the time of the cycle.

Also, I have started taking a very low form of birth control bill this cycle, and I suddenly realised that this means that I won't ovulate right? Because the pill surpressed ovulation? So does that mean I won't notice a natural increase in temperature? Or have I got this completely wrong!

Speaking of temp - mine today was 36.9! giving me 98.42F. I have only ever recorded this temp once back on the 9th of Nov. So that is quite cool. Annoyingly, my boyfriend is scheduled to stay tonight, so tomorrow morning I may just have to wake him up with the BEEEPPPP of my thermometer.

Searching - I was putting arnica creme on all the time. Despite this I have a noticeable browny type discolouration on the side of my breasts.

In terms of the liver cleanse. I was put on, and am actually still on, a Detox kit. Its meant to be a 1 month detox, where you take stuff for your kidney, liver, and something else, so there are three little bottles which you only put a few drops in your water bottle and sip it throughout the day. However, my body couldn't handle one of the bottles so I have only been taking two. AND, I could only handle a very small dose, so 2-3 months later I am still on it! I should be finished within the next 2-3 weeks I would think. My naturopath put me on it and its just a gentle detox.

Yeah, maybe no breast sensations = growth! Since I have had breast sensations and haven't had any growth! lol

In terms of EFA etc. I think at the end of the day, if you are on BO like me, you are taking so many pills as it is. I know that Crystalelle was taking EFAs in her program, and she is taking alot of pills per day. Personally, I don't want to take any more pills because its annoying enough swallowing what I already have. Plus my boyrfriend would think I was a junkie if he heard me swallowing 10 pills before breakfast!

You can buy flaxseed oil and pour it on your salads, you don't have to take it as a capsule. This is conjecture - but my feeling, is to keep your program as simple as possible. Because if you start putting all these different things in your body then your body may get overloaded.
