I've had some pretty bad itching on my right side lately. Enough that I kinda have to turn away and give it a quick scratch.
That's a good sign, right???
And I noticed yesterday that my breasts seemed "fatter." Kinda like how I imagine they might look if I gained another 15 pounds or so. My scale is in storage right now, since we moved like 6 weeks ago; and I was afraid the "fatness" might mean I was gaining weight (see my last post). So when I was at my parent's house today, I used their scale. They have one of those medical balance-beam scales, just like mine that's in storage. I weighed myself, and I was 123 1/2. And that was after eating a full Burger King dinner.
So yay, I haven't gained weight! I'm still exactly what I've been all summer. So the extra "fatness" in my breasts may actually be real "breast fat" in there! As opposed to "overall, whole-body, weight-gain fat." Since my butt and waist and thighs are still the same. When I go braless during the day at home, I'm not so "pointy" sticking out through my shirt; it's a more pronounced, rounded "sticking out" now.
When I look down, the little "valley" (my cleavage wannabe) is getting deeper.
I'm still only Noogling my right side. But it's very close to the size of my left one now, 24 hours after Noogling; so starting next week, I think I'll start doing both sides together. That'll be interesting, trying to figure out how to do that ...
Also noticed that my temperature seems to be around 98.4 when I get up in the morning, and get up to around 98.9 in the afternoon and evening. Not bad, considering I was always in the mid-97's my whole life.
I also caved and ordered some GABA from Swanson's with my latest order. I thought I read somewhere that if you're over 30, it might be beneficial to take GABA, since your growth hormone levels start dropping after 30. And also, I guess you're supposed to take Vitamin C with it, for maximum effectiveness? Good thing I already ordered some of that, too! And I also read that exercising boosts the production of growth hormones; and since GABA is best taken at bedtime (due to its "relaxing" nature), it's recommended you do a little light exercising before bed. So I'll try to make sure I do some of my Easy Curves chest exercises before bed too. I'm like taking EVERYTHING I've read about that can help with NBE! I'm up to 28 pills a day now, minus the GABA which I haven't received yet.
Fortunately, my Vitamin C is a powder, which I can mix in applesauce or something. It's the 100% buffered kind, so it won't bother my stomach. I have to drink two full 12-oz glasses of water to get all my pills down, twice a day; plus a glass here and there for my BB pills and my MSM pills; not to mention the 8-oz I mix with my protein powder, twice a day. That's like over 80-oz of water a day, minus what I drink with my meals. So all that water and pills fill me up so much I'm no longer hungry; and I gotta pee all the time.
But, it's helping to grow boobs, so for short-term it's totally worth it to me!!!
*Note: I'm sure keeping up a routine like this long-term (i.e., 5+ years or so) could possibly lead to kidney damage; so when I reach my goal, I will definitely stop almost all of the pills and the protein drinks. Hopefully I'll reach my goal in 1-1.5 years; if not, taking a break for a few months and then starting up again might be a good idea. Let the body rest and recouperate!
