My breasts are swollen and HURT. I'm constipated. I'm up .1 pound.

I'm sure I miscalculated my cycle. I bought one of those ovulation prediction kits last round and never used it. I probably ought to. I just assumed my period started on the full moon because the majority of the time when I had a uterus it did.

Swollen, painful breasts is a dead giveaway. The gain too - as I was 100% protocol. I've also been on a bit of a tear lately. My family fears me.

I had a substantial enough movement after I weighed myself that I'm sure I'm at least even at this point with the weight, though I'd so hoped to see 131.something. Ah well. Goooooooooo with the flooooooooooooow. :)

Thanks again Beaker and Beb - I can't tell you how much it helps having you here to cheer me on. Writing a blog to oneself can make one feel a tad nuts. Having you here to experience this along with me is so helpful.

OH forgot to add - I bought a magic bullet choppy thingie at Costco yesterday! I can't wait to learn how to use it! I'm making a heart shaped quiche for the family tonight and think I'll try it out!

EDITED TO ADD: Just had to take off my rings - my hands are swollen too, so I am definitely hanging on to water. Speaking of those rings... they are my ORIGINAL wedding and engagement bands... I couldn't wear them for the longest time but my replacements got too big! WOO!

I feel the same about you and Beb being here for me. It helps so much.

Cycles are a pain--no pun intended. I can imagine how much more frustrating it must be to not know whether you're having one or not. Your family fears you. :o) That's a sure sign.

You'll see 131 something very soon. Then the 120s!
