What did she mean by this?

[ryanripley 86,575]

so i was reading this statement from gaga on the littlemonsters app and i noticed that she says:

i am putting myself first right now, in a way i haven't ever before. it is very difficult and scary but i know it will make me healthier to create and perform for you for the rest of my life

instantly it means we can expect tours/performances in the future but the reason i'm pointing this out is because what is she doing now that was different during the first JWT break?  

did she pretend she was well enough to finish the european leg and thought she could just push through it?  

hopefully this means they're trying out new methods of pain relief so she can have a long career of performing?  

am i just reading too much into it and it's just a marketing strategy so we all buy tickets for the next show?

my first idea was she might get another hip surgery or something that helps her.

(the first thing you bolded)

She didn't cut the BTWB tour because she ignored her health. 

This time around she didn't repeat mistake. It shows that she growed and now she can handle it as a mature woman (the idea behind Joanne).

 

(the second thing you bolded)

She realized that canceling dates when her health impose it is going to help her on the long run.

oh

i thought you was draggin ha

merde

but still, i thought since C2C it was all about what gaga wanted to do etc, i just wonder what she's doing now as opposed to when the JWT was postponed

Before as in before this era. She's just reinforcing what she previously said about going more easy on herself and how this is all new to her.

But whatever was causing the pain, she should have done something about it. Being in pain is a bad sign anyway.

Because she has always put her work first since her breakthrough. She, as a person, has come second (Her health, her family, her private life). And that's the reason why she hurt herself in the first place. It's not a healthy thing to focus solely on your work and abandon yourself in different areas. 

I think her team is considering (And if they are not, they should) new ways to organize touring that are not as fatiguing as a continued massive world tour, since her illness is not going to allow her to commit 100% to it. Maybe shorter touring would be a better idea. Having separate legs for a tour would be better for her.

The Vegas Residency is a great idea for example, since she can stay in one place and have her medical team taking care of her.

What she actually meant was she will be doing POP music for the rest of her life. *my wish*

[August Blue 8,566]

Meaning that she is taking a very long break  

But hey.. asib soundtrack is coming  

[StringOfPearls 18]

that means another blackout

ASIB soundtracks better not be ballad.

I read it as she can't sit still. Even during the break when the European leg was postponed, she was still working. She never truly took a break I believe. I think this time she will get more mental help as well. Her mental health feeds her fibromyalgia and maybe there's some work to be done there.

Maybe she can reprogram her life a bit in a way she can still be a popstar and do other things, but not exhaust her mind and body completely. She seems to havr self destructive tendencies even before 2012. And I hope she'll research the right physical treatments as well and doesn't rely on any method thrown at her in Hollywood.

IMHO she was saying that she was taking her health way more seriously than she was.

She might have been a workaholic but she might be realized ahe cannot do that to herself anymore cos of this fibro within her. It makes herself learn to care about her health because if she didn’t, she realise it can always end her touring career for good.
