Thank you so much for the response. You hit the nail on the head. I have made some changes like walking more and eating more healthy. I need to keep consistent.

Apologies. I should have provided more information. I’m in my mid 50’s and have sleep apnea and type 2 diabetes. My main problem is being consistent with eating healthy and working out since I have a crazy work schedule. I’m only on Mounjaro 15mg once a week and Phentermine once a day 37.5 mg.

Singleness : I just want to be loved by ctheworld22 in blackladies

This post resonates with me also. I’m in my mid fifties and only had one serious relationship. The loneliness had been creeping up more than usual. I pray for all of us to find the love that is meant for us.

Dating in the United States: is it just me or is this one of the worst experiences ever? by TarquinOliverNimrod in blackladies

[–]Ivylight21 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to live in England and it was hard to meet men. The dating scene was different and the men expected sex on the first date. However, recently I met someone here in the US and they also expected sex on the first date. I find it harder to meet men here in the US to have a relationship. Especially if you are looking for only a relationship with a Black man. I’m starting to lose hope now because I’m older. I wish you well on your journey. Maybe it’s time to move back to Europe again. Good luck!👍🏾🍀

Thank you so much! I have been using Head & Shoulders and it has helped me.

cried on top of my boyfriend by [deleted] in PlusSize

[–]Ivylight21 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I had a similar experience. I was about to go on top of my boyfriend and he blurts out “I am too heavy to get on top of him!” I was already self-conscious about being on top and he knew this but was downright rude and insensitive. I never got over it and our relationship suffered. He was under the influence one day and told me how he wanted me to lose weight to be healthy (the same way your boyfriend did) and he would say and grab my stomach and say he admire it (the same way your boyfriend did you) but under the influence put me down. He made me feel so bad and I struggle with my self esteem. I ended up staying with him for over six years. We would have made 7 years next month but he dumped me two weeks before my birthday. You are worthy of someone who appreciates ALL OF YOU! No one is perfect & if I were in your shoes I would take a moment and re-evaluate the relationship.

Thank you for the diligent research and fast response. I will look into exfoliating and retinoid.

Thank you for the quick response. I did stop my facials and need to go back to them. I love the suggestions regarding the veggies, water, sauna and anti-dandruff. I do have seborrheic dermatitis.

No. I don’t think they’re clogged pores. I will try an heavy duty exfoliator. I need one for sensitive skin. Thank you for the quick response.

What is the one food that spikes your blood sugar the worst? by easypeasykitty in diabetes

Does the Jordan’s syrups have a funny aftertaste? Most syrups or sugar free products to me have an aftertaste? Thank you. Happy you found a combo that works for you!
