Cycle 5 Day 23
Same kinds of pains again but made me go ouccccch. Haven't had those kind of pains for awhile which make me feel uncomfortable. Again pains occured right after eating. 7/10.
My temp is really low at the moment. It was 35.8 last night. And this morning I just got the lowest temperature EVER of 34.8!!!! Better take double kelp this morning and hope it raises.
Weird that my temp is so low as it was consistently pretty good there for awhile reaching 36.5 on a regular basis. hmmmmmm
Breasts feel tired and went to massage them last night but they felt like tired muscles do.

Cycle 5 Day 24
So I had no aches or pains at all today.
My breasts look BIG (well when 'big' for me!) . Measured just under 32.5". That's the most I have ever measured (Except for noogling!).
So I"m pretty chuffed with that. Now obviously I am not going to remain at 32.5" after I get my period. Generally I have noted that from the start of my cycle until the end of my cycle I fluctuate approximately 1".
So hopefully that means I have grown a bit more and will measure more than 31.25" after my period.
I like how my breasts feel today!
I've thought about the whole birth control pill issue - and I've decided to skip my period this month.
Am going on holiday in a couple of days for a few weeks so will let you all know how I get on after that.

Cycle 6 - About day 19
Did not take the sugar pills so went straight on to cycle 6. Funnily enough I noticed that they seemed to get a bit smaller around day 5 of taking the pills - but then got much bigger. Wish I had taken my measuring tape with me, because at one point they felt like they were the largest they have been. We took a photo of me in my bikini and I could actually see breast shape in between the bikini! Am back from holiday and it's cold now and I swear my breasts feel way smaller!!! Measured this morning and got 32". Which is still good as I'm only about day 19.
Before the time when I would have got my period until then, I had intense pains about about 8/10 for days. Then I had nothing until about a week ago, and then the pains started getting really intense. On and off. One night they just went on and on and it drove me crazy.
The BO is definitely working albeit slowly. I seem to be very slowly getting bigger, then go smaller, then bigger etc.
So that's all from me.
Periwinkle - yes patience is hard to find! I'm just swallowing my pills each day and don't give it much thought!

hmmm so interestingly, I have put on nearly 4kgs since my holiday! Having not being able to put on weight for about a year, 3 kilos in about 2 weeks....! Crazy!
Been having sort of itchy but not, sensations kindof under the nipple area last few days.
Bit confused about pituitary as have been reading other people's profiles which contain conflicting information about whether pituitary is good to take or not.
I guess i just stick to what I'm doing.
I wonder if the weight gain is because I skipped my period? One thing I notice during my cycles, is that generally I eat and eat in the first half of my cycle, but by the second half I eat less.
Anyhow, guess will see what happens with my weight in the next couple of weeks. I had a horror thought - maybe I'm pregnant. But then I did eat ALOT of food on my holiday! So it was probably that.
My BMI is now 18.9 woo hoo! I'm actually in the range where they say you should be able to grow.
My only other thought about my increase in weight was that I hope it's not all the thyroid/adrenal medication I have been taking. I suddenly wondered if it's all built up too much and is making me hyperthyroid or hypo (can't remember which one is which).

Girlffriday,
I admire your resolve. I've read how you've had growth and then lost it again. That's exactly what's happened to me and I wonder if this will ever work for me. You're doing wonderfully and you are such an inspiration. I think I'll stick this out for a little longer.

Muse - I figure as long as generally your measurements are increasing then that's fine.
Like yesterday I measured 32.25". So I seem to be hovering around 32 to 32.5" these days. Which is great because before I was on the 31" to 31.5" mark mainly.
breasts aching away as I write this post.
Basically over the last month I haven't taken my protein shake. I eat tonnes of protein anyway and needed a break from the horrible shake. This last week or so I have been ADDICTED to sugary foods. I even ate some cake things for breakfast yesterday! So I've decided to cut all refined sugar out again. Obviously my body is out of balance and I need to cut out the sugar. I'm going to start taking protein shakes as of today too.
In terms of my programme - I'm only really taking DIM every second to third day if that. I take Proline when I can remember. And SLP only a couple of times a month.
My temperature has ridiculous highs and lows within the same day. So for example I measured 34.8 C this morning. Then no doubt by afternoon I'll be about 36.5 C. I'm not sure why I am getting these big jumps in temperature.
My breasts feel really different when I grab them. They are very spongey including in the middle bit.
When I was on holiday and my breasts were the largest I've seen them, it felt kindof weird having them!
