[Ruby M.]

I'm supposed to be lowering my sugar intake and my mother made mini apple pies and chocolate cheesecakes for the 4th of July and my fiancee brought all the leftovers home.  "More is better" has always been our dessert motto, so I have a real struggle on my hands.

Exactly, I try to keep things as simple as possible.  I think often with NBE, we get excited with all of the possible herbs, essential oils, ingredients, etc. and you want to buy everything and use everything when you may only need to take 5 herbs as opposed to 15.  My wallet and I learned that the hard way  

Hmm, I plan on massaging forever just for health and preventative measures but I don't know how I feel about using volufiline forever.  I would have to get a wholesale amount and who knows what the shelf life is on that.  I just checked amazon, and the reviews I read did nothing to convince me.  I think that NBE gives permanent results, there are a lot of people on here who have gained and not lost anything once they stopped.  From what I observed, it seems that results from massage take longer to show than herbs, NB, or  BO.

Absolutely. "less is more" when it comes to herbs/certain supplements and "more is more" when it comes to dessert 

Yes, massage is good for your breasts/circulation etc. so it's great that you're continuing. I just feel defeated lol after about one year and a half of massaging and no results. Investing so much time and energy and then...nada! I didn't really do anything else besides massaging (except for some herbal teas) in the beginning though so maybe it's the combination of things that yield better results. What does your NBE plan look like Ruby? I know that you're taking the extracts (spearmint, reishi and white peony) and msm...

I've definitely been there, before I knew anything about NBE and how it worked I googled "herbs for breastfeeding" and bought literally 20 different herbs that i mixed together and made tea with and drank that for a year while massaging with borage oil with some fenugreek infused vegetable oil that i bought from chinatown. It didn't work and I was so disappointed that I threw everything away and completely wrote it off and was secretly considering breast implants until my friend got them and had complications almost immediately after.
