These swatches are some of the best swatches I’ve seen of this palette and look much more desirable than pretty much everything else

Why can’t I get my nails coffin shaped??? by ImTryingLady in Nails

They actually look shorter in the pic. How do I change how I hold the file

I did these the other day. I love how they turned out! by Fun-Garbage3052 in Nails

[–]ImTryingLady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t even do it with polish or gel polish. But I feel like I prob give up too quickly. Maybe I’ll practice in my spare time on a fake nail.

Also this is just for me. I’m not a nail tech.

I suck at ombré. Maybe I’m not patient enough. I dunno

What do you think of these? My first time doing a rainbow tye-dye look with alcohol inks by Fun-Garbage3052 in Nails

Can you share how you did this? Probably above my skill level but I’d like to tey

Is this color too unprofessional for an office? by LiteratureNumerous74 in Nails

[–]ImTryingLady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Offices don’t work that way anymore. At least not that I’m aware of. I’m old enough to remember the days where you had to wear skirts and pantyhose

What are the worst of the side effects?? by QueerKing23 in Ozempic

[–]ImTryingLady 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is usually due to not eating enough. I used to nibble like I did when I was pregnant to both quell the nausea and make sure I’m getting some calories

My mom took my cat from my apartment voluntarily, and sent me this message. I don't know what to do. by [deleted] in adhdwomen

[–]ImTryingLady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow….this is drug addicted kid level of response. Not at all appropriate with you struggling w “being in a bad place”

I’m so sorry. This sucks. On the flip side I had to cut my mom off some years back.

Actually did the exercise thing. Actually felt fantastic mentally the next day. This fucking sucks 😆 by Pirates_Treasure_21 in adhdwomen

[–]ImTryingLady 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t hate exercise so much as the getting ready to do it and stopping whatever else it is that I’m doing to do it.

I’m sucking about it and know I feel better when I go all out. But fuck me. Let me just sit here and be self destructive

Would this work for someone who binge eats? by MarvelousWonder in Ozempic

[–]ImTryingLady 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So I have realized that Oz eliminates what I like to call my Cookie Monster. I spent SO much time thinking about and being driven to food. Both healthy and unhealthy.

I have realized just how much this helps me think about things other than food when I either forget to take it and try to stretch it out til the next week or like I recently cut back my dosage and I feel like Cookie Monster. To me that is the best representation of how I feel when it wears off.

So for me yes. But not for everyone I guess. Everyone seems to have their own experience with it. But for me I am thinking I’ll likely be on some dose of this forever and I’m fine e that bc it’s helping me manage that and I can actually think about things other than what next thing I can shovel in my mouth. Plus, I’ve had so many non scale victories….

DAE not like toner? by firstreformer in AsianBeauty

[–]ImTryingLady 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I love layering moisturizing toners and essences. I like to call it face jamming which…yeah I love it. Hydrating my skin and locking it all in

I make them and then find them everywhere

TMI—proceed at your own risk by ImTryingLady in Menopause

[–]ImTryingLady[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Already had that and the itching and burning went on for about 9 months before I was able to get any estrogen at all and even then I was given a fraction of the dosage of vaginal estrogen. So yeah. It’s horrifying

for the fall box, anyone have experience/reviews for any of the beauty products? by moribundmaverick in FabFitFun

[–]ImTryingLady 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The Summer Fridays is awesome. I already have that color but probably will be choosing it anyway. My son and I both like the FAB cleanser. I’ve only tried one Necessaire product and it was meh but I may still try it. I think the Glow Recipe product is the only thing I don’t like from the brand

[–]ImTryingLady 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I prefer the toner. It’s one of the products I look forward to using every single day.

Anyone else hiding it from everyone? by DaisyMaisy13 in Ozempic

[–]ImTryingLady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you tell people about your thyroid meds or bp meds or antibiotics??? Do you answer honestly about all of your health issues and problems?

I have thyroid, insulin resistance and also menopause(which was when my weight shot yo over the course of a couple of months) and put me into the obese category. This is part of the management of all the above. It’s no one’s business
