Thanks everyone.
I'm really glad I got it. Fortunately, it's healing really nicely, unlike my ear piercings from last November, grrr .....
We had a horrific ice storm Sunday night and Monday, and lost power for two days.
Me and my kids and a few of our most sensitive pets (all my fish and my parrot) had to stay with my parents because they have a generator and had heat. Our house got down to 48 degrees inside. My poor hubby and kitties and dog! Well, my dog actually probably enjoyed it, since she likes to spend time outside when it's really cold. I still took my pills and protein, but didn't have the privacy to do my rotations.
Now I can only do about 150 at a time again, darn it. I'm trying to mostly work on my right side.
I'm finding it extremely hard to fit in an hour a day to do NB; and as a result, I haven't done it in over a week.
I know it won't work if I don't use it consistently. The only time I can fit it in is after I get my kids to bed, and before I go to bed. Usually I'm so wiped out by then that I just go straight to bed after getting them settled into bed. I REALLY want my breasts to grow, though; so I will need to find a way to fit it in, somehow!
I reduced my daily Iodoral (iodine) pills down to just one pill a day instead of two. I know taking two a day was excessive to begin with; but I'm sure I was deficient in iodine, so it was recommended to take a larger dose for a couple months to replenish the iodine levels, then cut back the dose. I'm still taking one L-Tyrosine, two raw adrenal glandulars, and six Spirulinas per day, along with two protein drinks. I need to locate my Easy Curves exercise bar (can't find it since our last move) so I can resume those exercises once a day.
I'm trying so hard not to get discouraged. I really don't feel much in the way of aches or pains anymore, not even during massage; maybe a very mild dull ache on my right side once in a while. I'm not necessarily expecting pains=growth, as I'm aware many people grow with very little pains or sensations. But I would like to be seeing growth! My measurements are still hovering around 34.00"-34.25". Visually, apart from the roundness I get from doing rotations (which doesn't last very long), I haven't noticed much in the way of growth this whole past month. I'm still only filling my 34A cup bra about 3/4 of the way on my left and 2/3 on my right, with major gaps at the top half of the cups. I can guarantee if I re-take pics in March to send to BB, there will be no difference from the pics I took in late January. Instead of dealing with the humiliation of being rejected for a testimonial again, I think I'll just purchase another 4 1/2 month supply and see what changes there are at the end of that bottle.
I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a little disappointed by the lack of measurable progress I've had since fall. I'm gonna stick with my program, because it's the only thing that's worked for me. Obviously it's harder for those of us in the AA category and smaller to grow; and I was completely flat to start with. At this point, I'd be happy to be an A cup. Of course, a B or C cup would be more ideal for my body, proportion-wise; but I'm having such a hard time growing past the AA point now, those sizes seem impossibly huge and far away to me. My back-up plan, if I have zero growth by August, would be to stop everything, do a cleanse, wait a few weeks, and try Zoft gum, since so many others have had success with it. Maybe if I can get past the AA hurdle, and into the realm of A or B, then BO might work again after that. And NB would probably work better, for sure. I just can't realistically see me spending hundreds and hundreds of dollars a year, for several years, on pills and protein with no more measurable growth. So that's probably what I'll do; buy 4 1/2 months' supply of BB, and reasses in August. If no growth, then start back-up plan. If I do end up doing Zoft, I'll definitely still make sure my protein intake is up around 80-90g a day, since I'm certain high levels of protein are essential regardless of the NBE method used. I hate the roller-coaster ride of NBE! One minute you're like "Hey, they're fuller and rounder!"; the next minute you're like "WTF, they're smaller???" But when all is said and done, I am most definitely larger now than I was when I started (knocked 3 A's off my bra size); and for that I'm grateful. I'm trying to stay positive!
