I am glad you are seeing growth despite the low temperature, atleast your body is responding to it. and the measurement can be very deceiving, and one possibility is that when you are seeing more growth in the middle of the chest in the cleavage area you might not see it on the measuring tape because the growth isnt outward, the growth isnt vertical but its going across your chest in a horizontal way, i dont know if that made sense
btw the adrenal rebuilder you are using, they removed the hormones from it right? so how does it work exactly without the hormones?
yeah, I completely understand what you mean about the growth not being vertical etc. What I usually do when I measure is I have the tape around my back and then bring the measuring tape together in the middle of my chest. But I don't usually push the tape so it's completely flat in the middle of my breasts. But now when I do that it measures more, because it is longer for the tape to go.
I have no idea about the science behind the adrenal rebuilder. All I know is that it is one of the main adrenal programs advertised on the internet. It's called Dr Wilson's adrenal program. And it was also listed on that Dr Rind site too. It actually says in FAQ that it is more effective because it has removed the hormones and is 'porcine' which I have no idea what that means.

Cycle 10 Day 7
Bit of breast grumblings in the morning then had a couple of really intense sharp pains that only lasted a couple of seconds each but made me wince they were that sharp. Then nothing throughout the day. So 2/10.
Temperatures are really poor at the moment darn it.
Since day 1 I have had 36.4, 36.5, 36.8, 36.5 (started adrenal rebuilder), 36.3, 36.3, 36.7, 36.1 (I haven't adjusted these to the same wake up time).
So am going to have to do better than that! Am still trying to work out if my new adrenals should replace the pituitary, l-tyrosine and bovine adrenals I have been taking or whether I can use them concurrently... hmmm. At the moment I'm sticking with the pituitary and l-tyrosine but have stopped the bovine adrenals.
Cycle 10 Day 8
Had some aches and tingles during the morning which kept on going for quite awhile, about 30 mins to an hour. Not really intense. 3/10. Then in the evening started up again.
3/10 overall.
My temperature sucks. Not sure what to do about it, I guess I just keep taking the adrenals.. I just compared my temps this cycle to what I was getting last cycle and I was sitting comfortably about 36.6 last cycle and now I'm all over the place. I'm guessing the main culprit is stress, and I have to do what I can to minimise it. Pretty hard when it is coming up to the holiday season and the end of my dissertation. But, I need to try harder to relax! lol
These adrenals better kick in soon.
Breasts still feeling much bigger so that is good. Got out of that horrible (cycle day 5 area!).
Breasts aching away this morning.
Need to do some research about gelatin. Speaking of collagen, my nails grow so fast these days it is ridiculous. I feel like I am constantly having to cut them!! lol
I'm a bit confused about L-tyrosine. Because I was told it is really good for your adrenals, but now I have read it is also very good for your thyroid. So I am worried that because I have been taking extra kelp recently (2 per day) along with the l-tyrosine that maybe that is putting too much stress on my adrenal glands.. Apparently too much stress on the adrenals can be caused when you are nourishing your thyroid too much. First thing you are meant to do is nourish your adrenals, then thyroid second.
The nails growing thing got nothing to do with collagen and gelatin. It all has to do with the BO you are taking. It has been stated in BB and UB website that our nails and hair will grow faster than usual while you are on the supplements. Which is true it happens to many of us too.
that's interesting! Any other positive side effects?
Tonight my breasts went crazy before, during and after dinner. Really noticeable aches about a 7/10. Just spied on my breasts before and they look noticeable bigger, particularly in the middle part. They are starting to look like small breasts, instead of flat pancakes. woo hoo
Ok so I am at Day 10. Had dreams about taking some random breast powder that had lots of finally chopped up parsley and salt in it... lol
Breasts are noticeably larger to me. When I look at them I can really see a difference. Measured 31.25" but only 27.5" underbust. So another reason they may look bigger is that I am thinner. But I can definitely tell they are bigger when I hold them. I'm about 51kgs at the moment. Now what I am wondering is whether my breasts are actually growing or whether they are just swelling up. Hopefully it's the former. I guess only time will tell.
Some pics. Note the difference between the first pic and the pic on page 1 of my page. In this first pic here I can really notice that I finally have some little breasts. They almost look like puppy fat or something! Uneven too! But hey, I'm just happy to have anything!
I'm a bit concerned that I won't receive my collagen powder before Christmas and I am going away on holiday so that will be annoying if it doesn't arrive in time.
Day 11
So, yesterday was a bit weird. Had a few tinglings in the morning which were quite sharp, then by lunch time my breasts went crazy and were really aching with sharp twinges. This went on for a couple of hours. The nothing. Then in the evening again had some aching. It's a bit embarassing because the aches/twinges etc are such that I almost go to say out loud - "my breasts are really sore", like I would if my leg hurt or something. It can make me feel quite tired. 5/10.
I'm hoping that as my breasts grow, they will get noticeably larger that my boyfriend will say something about them! That's when I can get some external validation!
This will be my last post before Christmas holidays as I will be going away and don't want to get caught updating my program on this site by my parents or boyfriend! So, 10 cycles down....... 10 months of NBE. Last month and a half of noticeable progress. Temp today was 36.6 which is perfect. So I'm hoping like anything that this program is working for me. Seems that I've finally found something that works!
The only thing I am thinking about modifying in my program is that I may take 2 l-tyrosine in the morning instead of one in morning and one in evening. Other than that, I will most likely stick with my 5-6 pills of BO per day (1,250-1,500mg).
A big THANK YOU to all the lovely ladies on this forum who have been so helpful in answering questions and have written excellent posts which have a wealth of information in them - making it easy to research various topics.
May the growth continue into the New Year! I hope in my next post in a few weeks that I will be able to report and show some growth!
