Week 24
Week 16 on E (7.5 mg daily Oestrogel 2x pumps every 8 hours or so)
Woohoo 4 months on E
I've made a very slight change to the regime (Krill oil capsules vs fish ones)
AM (first thing on an empty stomach.)
2 x pump Oestrogel (2.5g)
2 x Swanson Bovine Ovary (500mg)
1 x Swanson Reishi capsule (600mg)
1 x Swanson GTE (500mg)
1 x sea kelp tablet (2,000mg)
1 x milk thistle tablet (4,000mg)
2 x krill oil capsule (500mg)
Lunchtime
2 x Swanson Bovine Ovary (500mg)
1 x Vitamin C (500mg)
1 x Vitamin D (500iu)
Mid Afternoon (3:30)
2 x pump Oestrogel (2.5g)
PM (last thing)
2 x pump Oestrogel (2.5g)
2 x Swanson Bovine Ovary (500mg)
1 x Swanson Reishi capsule (600mg)
1 x Swanson GTE (500mg)
2 x meletonin pills
I've just done another iHerb order for GTE, Reishi & Bovine Ovary which has led to me wonder if at this point I still need GTE & Reishi as I'm effectively mono-therapying with 7.5 mg of E daily
@Lotus if you see this, what do you think?
Here are the monthly vital stats to see what changes have happened since the start.
---
First the starting point.
Height: 5ft 10
Shoe size UK 9 (US11, EU 43)
Neck: 16
Bust: 42 (I have little 'moobs' already, probably an age thing)
Chest: 40
Waist: 35 (32 inch jean waist)
Hips: 38
Upper Thigh: 21.5
Ankle: 9.5
Biceps: 13
Wrist: 6.75
Hand Width: 5
Blood Pressure: 147/81
Weight: 12 stone 9 pounds (177lbs)
------
Now the week 24 values:
Height: 5ft 10
Shoe size UK 9 (US11, EU 43)
Neck: 16.5
Bust: 44.5 (+2.5)
Chest: 41.5 (+1)
Waist: 40 (+5)
Hips: 41.5 (+3.5)
Upper Thigh: 24 (+3.5)
Ankle: 9 (-0.5)
Biceps: 13
Wrist: 7 (+0.25)
Hand Width: 5
Blood Pressure: 98/78
Weight: 14 stone 12 pounds (207.8lbs) -- (+30.8lb) in UK values that's a shade over 2 stone in 6 months!
I wonder when I get to month 5 scores if it's still going up, I should try weight cycling?
BP and overall health is fine, in fact in terms of well being I feel great! but almost 15 stone... whew for me that seems quite heavy, I don't know.
On the plus side, my butt and thighs are looking nice in tight jeans
no wonder my supportive wife mentioned 'you're the only girl I know who wants a bigger ass!'
Emotional range is still ramping up, even just reading sad things on the news etc can now get me tearing up, it all seems typical for the time spent in transition.
Things seem to be ticking along quite happily right now, more of that horrid 'hurry up and wait' thing
