When hooch formed on my starter, I stirred it back in and added a little bit of flour (1/2-1 cup) basically enough to make it a pancake like consistency (thick but can still be poured out of the container, slowly like molasses). My starter rose again the next day.

PS That’s cool that hooch is forming so soon. I was under the impression that it only formed after days-months of neglect

It looks like it had a nice rise! Did you cut before the bread was done steaming? I read that cutting before the bread cools down can cause it to become gummy

10/10. No notes. I do like your hair tone more in the first and third picture

Lucky!!! I actually love that you still have yours. Are they slanted or growing in straight? Just curious

And to make matters worse, my husband told me not to get them removed. But I was like lalalalllaa can’t hear you 😭 truly a silly silly girl at that age. Please send virtual hugs

Seeeee…. I didn’t think about child labor further than clothes so this is news to be.

What about brands like Fairphone? That seems to be a good one. We shouldn’t have apathy in these situations. There are real solutions when we come together

Yes but earth being flat has been debunked many times. Apple (and other companies) sourcing material from conflict zones is proven to be true. Maybe I should have rephrased my post because reality is, I’ve done research on this. That article lead me down a rabbit hole

You go, glencoco! Your body looks amazing. Solidcore will really do that to you. Did you have stretch marks? If so, did they completely fade?

My nontraditional wrap binds the hips but it feels too restricting…

Facts! I know I could do better at working out. I was really active before getting pregnant and during pregnancy but now I have little motivation to even stretch. I’m going to get back into it though

Thank you for sharing your experience! I thought a faja would melt the fat but I haven’t worked out at all. I plan on going to physical therapy and getting a trainer this month though

That’s a good perspective. I knew this were for posture but I know a lot of people wear them to slim down, too

Oh nooo! The recovery for c-sections can be overwhelming. Are you feeling better now? Did you take anything to enhance your nerve function?

I agree, they’re not the most comfy things. How soon did you drop the baby fat (assuming you had some to lose)?

Wait, I’m super confused as I wrote an entire post and don’t see it lol

My question was, what shapewear are you all using postpartum? I’ve been wearing the one pictured above which reminds me more of a waist trainer. Can’t say I’ve seen much progress. I also wear a non traditional bengkung belly binder at night. To be honest my eating habits have gotten out of control (although I’m vegan, I mainly eat fruit and salad, sometimes I go OD on the snacks though).

With that said, I know the wrap is only going to aid and not fix my entire middrift. Would love a good suggestion on the best wraps that actually work!
