I don't have an answer to your question, you will have to wait for the official GYE beis din for that
.
I do have a question though. What the heck is the difference?
What is going to happen if you restart and what will happen if you don't (I mean at this point, it doesn't sound like you are rolling around in the mud).
If the count is just for your ego then yo probably should leave it, but if you re trying to break free, you may want to think about how "taking a peak" really helped you moving forwards.
