Hi surferjoe, hope you are well and safe in this crazy time! Thank you so much for all this information! It really makes sense and confirms my thoughts about nutrition.
Until the age of 18 I have mainly eaten not nutritious foods due to culture and circumstances. White rice, white bread, meat... a lot of processed food and not often vegetables, fruit and fish. Rarely/never beans or nuts. At age 14 I got my first period and my cycle has never been regular and always longer than 35 days. Didn't have acne only one pimple in three months or something. Have no curves at all, no hips, butt, breasts are like aaa. (Btw I eat much but I always have been thin and when I gain weight it first goes all to my cheeks/jaw and then belly. )
At the age of 18 I found breastnexus (YAY!) and began changing some of my nutrition and have tried some programs. But no luck. I'm so disappointed in the way I've eaten in the past. Now I'm 22. Last august I started eating only 'healthy'; brown rice, brown bread, meat, fish (minimum 2x week), olives, greek yoghurt, fruit, vegetables, legumes, nuts, seeds, water, spearmint and green tea. The first cycle I got strong growing pain in my breasts for 10 days straight around 17 days before my period. Never felt this before and for such a long time!!! And a cycle of 32 days... Never had a cycle this short. Then I got a very stressful period. The cycle thereafter was 31 days and thereafter 26 days but no growing pains and bad forehead, chin and upper lip acne... The cycles after these were back to around 38/39 days and acne and stress worsened. During this period it looked like I got more extreme hair growth in the beard and mustache area.
From the beginning of this month I have no stress anymore and started taking multivitamin daily as a supplement not replacement. But still fresh pimples mainly forehead and hair growth (which causes pimples in the beard and mustache area). Do you maybe have a clue why??
Also as you mentioned the nutrition you recommend is low calorie, but I don't want to lose weight I want to gain weight (in my body...). Would it be bad if besides all the nutrition you recommend also eat for example olives, greek yoghurt? Because you mention that if you have to much of somethings it may be hard to balance it
