I'm panicking - plan B issues

Hi y'all

so about a a little over month ago I went on a date. the whole time I was like...hmmm and not really sure but I did it because I thought it would be good to get out - MISTAKE NUMBER 1.

I was celibate since August and locked in on a prep.

I had to take plan B because we hooked up/protection failed and I've taken plan B before but I am having the worst reaction to it. I've been so paranoid and taken a million pregnancy tests - all negative. but my body has been so bloated, my energy exhausted, my food and diet is affected by my stress, and despite I was training hard I was seeing no results.

I still haven't had my period but I tested at 3 weeks post sex and I've been told it's definitive. so I'm just in this extended luteal phase.

I've dealt with the shit for weeks now since that date, my locked in has been unlocked and I've been doing my best to stay disciplined but there are things just out of my control.

I am extremely bloated and everytime I eat it's even worse. I've gone up 2 sizes in this time, despite doing MORE cardio and steps, and exercising.

I was worried I was spiking my Cortisol so this week I've pulled back completely, decided to give into my cravings and rest and this has actually helped a little. it's helped me regain control over discipline and today I feel more able to enjoy the normal foods I eat that are part of my cut. my bloat reduced like ever so slightly.

but honestly this whole experience has taught me a hard lesson about being a hoe. and just not to break my celibacy during a cut because the risks are just too high for me personally and the aversion my body has to all this stress is added load that I really did need.
