    Effects of Nutrient Deficiency on Skin

    I'm on a pure retinoid (dermatologist prescription) and it's amazing. It changed the texture of my skin as well. I look younger.
  4. Maybe by next month the hairloss will slow down

    The Cookie Incident

    So candid and refreshing that you aren't seeking permission to be bad, off plan, yourself, etc. Just owning it. Super top secret info I'm going to share... Add protein powder to your cookies mixes, Voila Now you're on trend! Everyone gets protein cookies, and you get the smug satisfaction of being semi on plan during difficult times. Compromise and sustainability Safe Journey ๐ŸŽˆ
  8. You know I'm just going to ride the wave and not worry about it, but weighing will be cut down to once in a while. Maybe monthly to check maintenance. My clothes will tell the truth lol
  9. Green Tea totally helps... Have fun!
  10. Yes, and I haven't been particularly good or bad. I'm confused. I'm so far out weightloss slows to a crawl they say, I started IF for other reasons and wasn't seeing alot of loss anyway. But I'll just cautiously watch.
  11. Alright Home scale 153.2 (in the tan) Doctor scale 154.2 fully clothed Hmmm, Curiouser and curiouser...

    Ohhhh... now I have so many questions

    Don't risk it. Take as much time off as you can. Could you physically be there sure, maybe. But what if you have non stop vomiting or diarrhea? Having a desk job won't help much. Or you may be fine initially then boom stricture on day 12 and back in the hospital you go for dehydration because you were busy working instead of hydrating. IDK... Why set yourself up for added stress like that? Sounds like a plan that can quickly spiral out of control. If timing is the issue try to wait until it works. Safe Journey ๐ŸŽˆ

    Sophomoreville - A Home For The the Tweeners

    I drink A LOT, when I get less I feel the difference , in fact I can tell because my wrists are smaller, measurably. I didn't always drink enough. I had a high stress job that silently required I took very few lavatory breaks, like none, so I mistreated myself. When I left it, I decided to take better care of my body. hydrating greatly improved the luster and elasticity of my skin. I've been told that I have the softest skin ever, childlike (but not in a creepy way)...

    Weight Stall Venting

    When @GreenTealael tells you to be patient during a stall and drink more water or maybe even tea...
  21. So 153 today The number doesn't really matter on my Basic B!+ยขฯ€ scale, but the fact that it's trending downward and kind of rapidly is problematic. Or is IF just that good to me? I gained for hell week, red death, and thanksgiving shenanigans (in that order) and maybe now it's taking me back to normal? I'll just chill and find out (tomorrow) a weight with a scale I can trust.
  22. You just rotated the bowl lol ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚
  23. Sometimes energy ebbs and flows. I'm 13 months out and exhausted this week. One solution for me this go round, coffee. Other times it maybe sleep, vitamins or hydration.
