Feeling slightly deflated after this round, I think that is three rounds in a row that haven’t worked for one reason or another and i’m am starting to loose a little bit of faith that this is all worth while.
I feel like I have tried doing things all ways. One month I do no exercise and eat really healthy and it doesn’t work, the next month I do yoga every day and don’t think about what I eat and it may work, there seems to be absolutely no method to this madness, I don’t know if what i am doing is helping or hindering things. I think maybe I just need to except that every month i am a little old and so every month it will be a little harder.
I could tell this month it wasn’t working, at least that is something. I wasn’t having sleepless nights or night sweats and my breasts weren’t tender so I knew in my heart that things weren’t doing what they needed to.
I have decided not to take anything (pills or injections) for at least a month and give myself a bit of a break while i get things back to normal, if my body even knows what normal is any more. Maybe after that I will give it one more try.
