I am sadistic like that. :-) I too started to notice some fatigue, low mood while on the BB and wanted to see if that went away. Well I could not go without the BB any longer.<br /><br />I don't know if there is a rebound effect, but I was awful. My heart rate was easily into the 170's with shortness of breath, dizziness and horrible fatigue while standing. So as you can probably guess, I went back on the BB and that's gone again. My heart still seems a little aggravated from my experiment. <br /><br />These BB's will make us more hypothyroid, so keep that in mind! Obviously the low doses we are on aren't supposed to lower T3 or increase RT3 as much. Even though the BB lowers the T3, there is no compensation in TSH levels according to one study I found. SO part of me thinks that the fluid retention, low mood and constipation might be lower thyroid levels? I'm guessing here.<br /><br />I agree that smaller boobs are better than like DD's, but I have AA's which are annoying! I barely have a 1/2" difference from the band to my bust. =/ If I were a little bit heavier on top, these few pounds I gained from the BB wouldn't look so bad. :-)Danahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02515068888663868718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540394361537635721.post-63683818817678364162010-03-30T04:59:43.746-04:002010-03-30T04:59:43.746-04:00Hi Dana

After a solid week on the beta blockers (so much nicer, not feeling so racy all the time), I have noticed some fluid retention too - nothing too bad, just my rings are tighter, and I can just feel it. Also some constipation, and low mood, although that could be hormonal, but it is not normal for me. Wondering what to do...<br /><br />Let me know how you're going...<br /><br />Nicola<br /><br />(PS - I like having small boobs - so much nicer than big ones!)imgehahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00648278070388195442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540394361537635721.post-78992484308018265252010-03-28T14:30:26.135-04:002010-03-28T14:30:26.135-04:00I think either too small or too large breasts woul...I think either too small or too large breasts would be annoying. I knew a girl that had a breast reduction because they were causing her back pain. She went down 2 cup sizes yet, she was still a very large C cup! I am not even an A cup and I have zero chest fat. <br /><br />I'm not looking for DD's. Yikes! lol I know that size of boob comes with a price (like you said). I'd be happy with a full A cup with some chest fat on top! <br /><br />If I could just buy a victoria's secret bra that would make me happy. Bra shopping is TORTURE for me because I have to settle on which bra doesn't look as bad. Nothing fits me and I'll be damned if I wear a training bra at 25!Danahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02515068888663868718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540394361537635721.post-65950579118938812382010-03-28T06:12:07.947-04:002010-03-28T06:12:07.947-04:00When my sister and I were growing up I was always ...When my sister and I were growing up I was always jealous of her flat chest! She never had to wear an uncomfortable bra, no chafing when she went jogging, her clothes just seemed to look better without 10lbs of boobs mishaping her shirts.<br /><br />She, on the other hand, was jealous of my chest; wishing that she had something the boys would gawp at. Now that we're older...we still feel the same way!! Lol<br /><br />It seems that part of being a woman means we will be dissatisfied with our shape, no matter what that is.
