Hi East of Eden,
Think of it this way - if you are going to have growing pains, they will happen at a certain combination of dosages. The idea is to find that combination. There are two ways to find the combination, hit it right immediately by accident or by some kind of trial and error. One of the tools for trial and error is ramping up dosages.
The one that I have posted is only one of many that could be used. It is only for illustrative purposes to show what ramping up is, not that that specific rate of ramping up needs to be used. The idea is to ramp up slower for smaller sizes to avoid stalling. Larger sizes do not have the problem to the extent that smaller sizes do.
Whether one is ramping up to find an optimal dosage using growing pains or ramping up to a predetermined dosage, another tool is the max dosage. This is based solely on amount of cells available - or in other words size - height, weight, age, band, and cup. For those who are about A cup size, I draw the line, generally speaking, at 2000mg. B cup or larger is 3000mg. Women who have breastfed children, I believe, are able to handle a higher max dosage even if they are a small size, so another consideration is the size that they expanded to while they were breastfeeding.
You wear a 32B but have never breastfed. This puts you right on the line. This puts you at 2000mg max per day, but you could experiment with going to 3000mg because you are a B cup.
Is this making sense? The entire thing is based upon what your body responds to which only you can find out. For me, at the other end of the wire, it is a guess based on the above information, so I can only recommend guidelines for you to consider to avoid stalling. And it should always be remembered that growing pains are not a requirement to grow. Many women grow without them - hence the need for a max dosage. A max dosage helps one who is not experiencing growing pains to choose a dosage that is less likely to make them stall.
The idea is to have a tool to use, not to get to wound around overly specific details. Am I making sense?
