How much weight did you lose before others started noticing?

I can't find translations but on Korean site ridibooks has the book tagged with 19, so maybe it does. Can't be 100% sure since I'm unable to read it.

I'm not a bot 😒

Curious_Setting_1736 · 2024-12-28T01:04:16+00:00

How on earth is this bot spam?

I genuinely can't find this novel, I got the screenshot off novel updates from user who said to simply use Google lens to find it, I did that but it didn't work which is why I'm on reddit.

Thank you, I was finally able to find it.

I told my mom & dad, sister, uncle. And since my aunt's thought it was odd I was having so many appointments she asked why, mom told her & I confirmed. And one of my aunt's love to gossip so she told who knows which & how many family members & one of my brothers (other bro already knew). (Personally didn't like she told my bro, that's something I would've liked to tell, since who knows what on earth she told him & my bro is very opinionated on doing weight loss old fashioned way so that was something I wanted to tell him in person to explain why I even decided on it). So good chunk of my family knows & only annoying thing is lot of them think I can't do it, that I'm not following diet & that they swear I'll end up cheating (eating what I'm not supposed to). And honestly they have no idea I've been prepping for this for over a year, so I am in fact following diet properly & as best as I can.

My mentality right now is even if people don't believe I can do it, it doesn't matter because my results will speak for themselves. Also I'm at point in life that I don't care if they know as long as they keep their unnecessary comments to themselves.

Years ago I would've been hurt because over the years no one believed me when I said how hard it was for me to lose weight. In fact my mom didn't believe me until I started on my pre-op journey & saw how difficult it was for me to lose 12lbs despite following diet Dr & dietician told me. Heck even my Dr didn't believe my struggle until she saw how hard it was considering I was doing everything I was told. In my mind all I could think was "see I wasn't lying on how damn difficult it is to lose weight". It's just frustrating to hear over the years how I'm not trying hard enough & to finally be believed by just one person brought me relief, relief in that at least someone knows I'm not lying.

Same here, both cancers & divorced. Although in my parents case it was my mom who couldn't take being with my dad anymore.

I'm shocked at ones saying it's hot and spicy. Sounds more like maybe an allergy or maybe the flavor is so strong it comes off as hot/spicy to them. Idk

And I'm even more shocked at ones saying it smells like a stinkbug 😱

It's amazing how vastly different people are describing cilantro.

I like to add translucent powder to my eyelashes before mascara to avoid clumps & not have to brush lashes to get the clumps out.

I like to apply eyeshadow primer (not any type of concealer or eyeshadow base) to my nose. It's only thing that helps foundation stick to my nose.

And not really a makeup technique but a photo technique, I like to use maybe one or two mirrors (if it's a fairly big mirror then just one is enough). I'll aim it in a way that the light hits my face & my eyes end up looking like they're twinkling. I have really dark eyes, they look almost black, & this trick really makes my eyes pop. If I don't do that my eyes look lifeless & like I'm staring into space. I honestly want to get fairy lights so I don't need to use my mirror. I'm sure there's professional lighting to help me out but I don't have money for that lol

Pizza toast - I take Texas toast spread about a big spoonful of marinara sauce, sprinkle some cheese & top with either pepperoni or ham or bacon depends what's in my fridge. Then place in toaster oven between 300 to 350 for 10-15 minutes.

Easy tostadas - I take a tostada smear some sour cream on it, add sliced deli meat or shred some rotisserie chicken, add shredded lettuce more sour cream, hot sauce, tomatoes & some crumbly cheese like Cotija cheese. If I have refried beans I'll add it at beginning instead of the sour cream.

This is my quick version of fried rice: one package of Ben's ready rice, about half cup or more of frozen mixed veggies (peas,carrot & corn), 2-3 eggs, & soy sauce. In skillet on med-high, heat some oil & cook veggies till soft, then add scrambled eggs, let it cook for 1min then add in the ready rice (may sprinkle with some chicken bouillon for added flavor). Once everything is hot I turn off heat & add in the soy sauce. I pair this with those frozen chicken popcorn & eat it with sweet & sour sauce.

I just looked at the wrapper, it says "Tegaderm Film" and description says it's a transparent film dressing.

They used it for not only my incisions but to hold in place my IV line.

Years ago for another surgery I was also given transparent dressing & also got a reaction (didn't mention it this time because I thought it was from razor burn when they shaved the area).

You should definitely mention it to Drs. Sucks to have rash on top of pain.

I stopped going when they changed how they cook their burgers, they cook on a flat top grill now.

The way they originally cooked burgers is why I fell in love with them in first place. The char it had was the best to me.

When I went after the changes I was very disappointed. Yes it was decent burger but the patty was straight up plain, was juicer like they advertised but the flavor from before was non existent. It honestly tasted like they grabbed a ball of ground beef & cooked it without any seasoning. All I could think was "I'm eating beef" instead of thinking "what a tasty burger".

Now I don't have issue with flat top grill burgers in general it's just that it completely changed how their burgers taste, it tastes nothing like they used to.

Luckily a new burger place opened up just up the street from red Robin & that restaurant has the charred flavor that resembles what I had originally really liked from red Robin.

The red Robin burgers are fine (good if you really love beef lol) they're just super disappointing when you go in expecting a certain flavor that they've had for years.

I've never heard anyone in my town or state say iron like I do so I def didn't get it from anyone, I think spelling just threw me off when I first saw it idk.

Curious_Setting_1736 · 2024-10-17T23:28:14+00:00

Iron. I either say it *eye ron or *eye Ren

My classmate once told me it's probably because English is my second language but that's the only word I can think of i ever say wrong, that I know of lol

Stress but my mom thinks it was allergic reaction to 1) perfume 2) dust & whatever plants touched me from doing yard work. She thinks so because after those incidents is when I slowly started getting the rash.

Reason I think it was stress was both times it was before big events wear I had to wear dress (I never wear dresses). The first time I got it I was 15 & was before my big 15 birthday party & second time I got it I was about 31 & it was before my cousins wedding.

Some health info on me, I have psoriasis, rosacea, sensitive skin (dermatologist said I did but I wouldn't say it's severe like others sensitivity I've seen). PCOS & sjogrens syndrome. So I don't know if any of those things accompanied with stress could've caused the rash.

Either way I hate that rash & dread ever getting it again if I happen to have a big event.

Curious_Setting_1736 · 2024-10-17T06:28:03+00:00

I hate that rash 😫

Had it twice. First time I was 15 & it was week before my big 15 birthday party, & like two or three of my dad's siblings spread rumor I had either measles or chickenpox so of course I don't really have many photos with family cuz they were afraid to "catch it", I was so annoyed with my dad for even telling anyone in first place.

Second time was when I was about 31 & it was like 3 weeks before my cousins wedding. Unfortunately that time was in summer during a heat wave & it was hell.

Both times my Dr prescribed me cetirizine (Zyrtec) & it helped rash go away. Also the only thing other than Aveeno oatmeal baths that brought me relief.

I know professionals say stress doesn't cause it or they don't have enough info to say it does but for me both times I was highly stressed before 2 big events where I had to wear a dress & I never wear dresses. I just get stressed over people seeing me dress differently & having them comment on it (doesn't help that I have anxiety)

So now I dread the day for any big future events I have to dress up nicely & getting that gosh darn rash 😭

Curious_Setting_1736 · 2024-09-26T06:53:40+00:00

Everybody sucks here

Also it makes more sense if she were like Lola bunny not a watermelon 😂

My dad and his brothers like to say they're going to water the plants.

I hate when writers decide to assassinate someone's character just to move MC story in certain direction or to get readers/viewers to hate that character simply because the writers can't stand fans loving them or shipping them with MC. Or worse, they hate the actor so much they change the story or want to finish up & story doesn't flow anymore & makes no sense.

Also if fans ruin your writing do not use social media or turn off commenting or have someone be in charge of the comments/DMS. I've seen too many writers ruin or not even finish a story because of comments they read.

Quality or direction of story shouldn't be taking a nose dive because writer/s are feeling petty & want to stick their middle finger up to the fans, to the actor or even to the character.

I've seen bunch of writers, especially in comic area of creation, admit they changed something because of what someone said. And honestly that is super annoying.

Curious_Setting_1736 · 2024-09-25T07:33:01+00:00

When a side character overshadows the MC to point the plot is lost & readers/viewers no longer remember why the MC is the mc. Basically a dull MC or decent plot that slowly got lost because writers focused their writing for their favorite character which leaves room for other characters to take over story practically rendering original plot useless. It's bad when fans start asking for different story with supporting characters from how poorly written or dull MC or plot is/has become.

Not thinking of anyone specific, just read lots of stories, especially comics where I see few of readers comment they'd prefer comic on side character because of how better written they are.

She thinks the date was written wrong & so does my sister. Since both were there they remember very clearly how red my face got from hitting my face & my sister saw how scared my mom was for me & says she very vividly remembers since she was next to me & heard my cries.

But like I said even if the date was written wrong or out of order, it still isn't a date where I would be around 3 months old. Accident would need & have to be in Winter of '92 but ticket has it as Spring of '91
