Jan 26
 
Nothing exciting happening besides my period started 2 days ago so I'm starting my new program (will post below)
Will stick with this for the next month or so and monitor any progress or changes.
So far since the accidental break I had at the end of Dec into Jan , really haven't had much changes. ): Kind up discouraging because I was hoping to at least see .5 increase.
I may have to re-introduce MACA back into my routine to see if that's what gave me the huge increase in the first few months or if it was something else, as MACA was one of the things I took to help gain weight overall but maybe it's helps me with NBE more than I realized?
 
For now i basically use the manual pump every night after 20-30 mins heating pad + 15 min massage and have just been lightly testing the electric pump I have from James to figure out what settings I want when I actually start, so far so good...I just have to figure out the rights fit that actually keeps suction without sliding out of place lol
 
 
Notes:
 

• Not starting DIM yet. From doing more research I found there's some other supplements that are benefit to take while using DIM ( sulforaphane and calcium D-glucarate) which help with the detox symptoms. I found it made my migraines flare up and (TMI) my urine SUPER orange. (Apparently a side effect?) And it helps to take those other things to clear the bad stuff out of your system instead of it just getting recycled and causing negative side effects. Going to keep doing research to find what is the best kind to take and then order them, but for now I'm adding in only the 1000mg iodine to see if it helps with the fibroid tissue along with the borage oil and evening primrose (EPO)
  

 

• Finally starting to adding workouts into my routine again, something that is always such a struggle but if I actually consistently do it everyday it becomes so easy. Just doing 15 or so mins of leg/ab/core movements.
