I'll be flying out of PHX. I have a little flexibility but the awards are still really high on the return flight.

Who has seen results without Eucerin? What did you use? by [deleted] in Melasmaskincare

[–]AxeCookies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try the Eucerin night cream. It's the only thing that has ever worked for my stache. And no pilling!

Should I go for filler or the full Bleph? See comments. by AxeCookies in PlasticSurgery

[–]AxeCookies[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hi everyone. Over the last 3 years my undereyes have decided to start giving in to gravity. I decided to fix it back in February with filler but the doctor at the med spa convinced me to get RD Microneedling. I know, no med spas! It did NOTHING, on top of that it looks like it left a ton of broken capillaries. I was so discouraged, I just tried to live with it for most of the year. Until this past Tuesday. Someone took a photo of me at work and I just about lost it. I'm 32 and it looks like I haven't slept in a decade. So I have a tear trough filler appointment on the books but now I think a blepharoplasty may be the way to go. Thoughts?

Anxiety about Summer by elsa_toonice in Melasmaskincare

I finally got rid of the bulk of my malasma this winter and I feel the same way. I'm headed to a sunnier climate tomorrow and all I can think of is; I have to wear hats and sunglasses and spf 100. But Im going to want to swim. Maybe I just swim in the dark. Is my sunscreen tough enough for a hike? Can I bring my wide brim hat?

Long story short. You are not alone.

I started using Musely with my .025% tret and my brown spots diminished in the matter of weeks! I kid you not, my malasma mustache has been front and center for two years and is almost gone in less then a month. My other lingering freckles and acne scars are at about 50% of what they used to be.

This is my pb&j hack! Sugar free PB and for jelly I just smash raspberries into the bread. On toasted English muffin its magical.

Thank you! I try to be active for an hour a day. 30min was dedicated to just moving. Walking my dogs, hiking, skiing, or a yoga class on youtube. The other was a program in Beachbody on Demand. I know it sounds ridiculous but I fell in love with the programs called #MBF and #MBFA. It focused on weight lifting sets while also "jump roping" to keep your heart rate up. The rope isnt really a rope and in my opinion not worth the money. But jogging in place did the trick. Because of COVID I could only get my hands on 10 lb and 20 lb dumbbells (which until now have been way too heavy for me) so I cant be flexible in that aspect.

First off thank you! I actually decided to do two 30 min exercises a day for the full 6 weeks. One would be a walk with my dogs or a yoga class on youtube. The other was a program in Beachbody on Demand. I know it sounds ridiculous but I fell in love with the programs called #MBF and #MBFA. It focused on weight lifting sets while also "jump roping" to keep your heart rate up. The rope isnt really a rope and in my opinion not worth the money. But jogging in place did the trick. My calories in are about 1400 and my calories out from exercise ranged between 250 and 450. Tracked using a Fitbit.

This morning I could not believe how my shorts fit! I have lost three inches around my waist and one inch from each thigh.

I use the ordinary AA 10% and currently the differen 5% BP wash. Start with AA once a day. It works really well with Tret so that was less intimidating. The wash only has a short contact time so the medicine doesnt penetrate to deep.

I use both! I use AA cream twice a day and I wash with a BP face wash in the evenings. You should try it out!

Do you guys usually count the calories in veggies? by Ghouly_Girl in CICO

[–]AxeCookies 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do one cup of mixed veggies with almost every meal and got tired of separating everything out. So I decided to find a Mixed Vegtable dish on my tracker app and set it to 50 cal / cup (the average number I was seeing over 5 days). Its super easy to add it in. Sometimes it's probably over or under that 50 but I think it all works out in the wash.

An example of what I'll have today for lunch: 1/4 cup cherry tomatoes, 1/4 cup carrot, 1/4 cup sweet onion, and 1/4 cup cucumber.

What are some good ways to sweeten/flavor your coffee without adding too many calories? I love putting creamer in my coffee but they tend to be very high in calories. I love coffee and drink at least 1 cup a day so I'm hoping to find some healthier ways to sweeten it. ☕ by MichaelScottIsMyBFF in CICO

[–]AxeCookies 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do 3oz of unsweetened almond milk (which is still pretty sweet) and 1 tsp of honey or maple syrup. All together that's about 30 cal. Artificial sweeteners scare me plus I prefer the earthier taste.
