Just an overdue update

Just wanted to update about the mammogram I had recently and a few other things.
The mammogram went fine and nothing was found, so that's a huge relief!
I don't know what caused the symptoms I was having, which is kind of unsettling, but at least everyone I've seen has said that everything looks fine now.
Thanks everyone who offered support and advice in my previous post about this. :)


Other than that, I'm going to be taking a break for a month or two. I have two finished-just-need-to-be-posted blog reviews which will be up as soon as I have time. The poor Chp Opium has been in a draft for weeks, I just need to upload and add the photos for it. I hate posting reviews after a bra has sold, but I've been super strapped for time.

Anyway, I started putting a lot of pressure on myself to lose weight and that back fired on me. I had an eating disorder for about 11 years and I've been ok for about 2. For some reason, I haven't been being careful and totally forgot that there are certain things I just can't expose myself to or entertain, such as *trying* to lose weight.

I was steadily losing weight from being active and eating well, and I think I was so happy with the results that I wanted more and now I'm at a really weird place and I'm just really unhappy and feel trapped again. That of course is making me depressed and inactive and things are just spiraling downward.
And because of extreme weight fluctuations due to this, all of my bras are consistently too large or too small now anyway, so any data added to my account during this time will just be inconsistent, and that really bugs me.

So, I think it'd be best to leave for a little bit. I think a month or two should be enough time to get myself back on track and hopefully in a healthier mindset. At least I know now never to make this mistake again. :)

But yeah, I just wanted to update as opposed to randomly disappearing haha
