SAD Update

Today and yesterday I noticed my breasts have gotten a little smaller! It either is because I lost weight (again) now that I'm on my GFD (gluten-free diet), the extra vitex pill was too much and caused a stimulatory effect and possibly increased estrogen, OR the extra estrogen I took in the beginning of my cycle is still affecting me.
BUT I also have noticed a huge change in my mood aligning with the decrease in size.. my breasts changed size when I stopped taking 3 vitex pills a day and went down to 2.. and i have once again become SO irritated, moody, and easily frustrated! It could be from my GFD though too...
Don't you hate all of the variables in nbe?




In other news though,

I was doing some more research on my stomach issues and I already knew a huge problem related to that is not absorbing nutrients.
Vitamin b6 and b12 and really important in balancing hormones (in my case hopefully increasing progesterone and decreasing E) I thought I was getting enough since I take multivitamins with 100% of my DV but I think I need more.

The video above says the best source of vitamins and nutrients is from food but when I looked online, b6 and b12 are exceptions BUT only for people with stomach issues that cannot absorb vitamins and minerals properly. It said fortified cereals (enriched with vitamins b6 and b12) and supplements are better.
I lost the site where I found this..had it opened on my laptop a few days ago but you can easily find it with a google search if you want!

I picked up some GF fortified cereal today Hopefully my boobies thank me for it.

I need to massage more. I've only been massaging about 5 minutes a day too :/

Yeh it truely sucks. Thing is though in the short term and going g free we have to make a sacrifice of weight BUT if we don't heal our guts.. It ain't gonna work anyway..
Brown rice fried and spiced up can be delicious , potatoes and sweet potatoes will have to pile on the weight...
