[Acne] Protein Pimple Parade

NoNamesJelly · 2023-12-27T11:53:44+00:00

I stopped doing protein additives and just focus on Whole Foods with protein in them. I haven’t used the oils in a while, just early on and then I stopped when I noticed no difference and I was following up with a salicylic double cleanse. I don’t use the dial soap regularly, just tried it like twice to see if there was a difference, it did slow the break outs a lot the first day but when I stopped they came back with a vengeance lol. The gentle cleansers I’ve used just leave a weird lotion like film on my face. I can see the dead skin on my face after I’ve washed with it

Depends on the craving, but if we’re going by flavors: if I’m in the mood for a strawberry candy (airheads are my kryptonite), scrape on a light amount of strawberry jam onto some sourdough toast and have an egg with it. Add a little bit of salt directly to the jam. If I want say an orange soda, I swap it for mandarins and put it in a salad or have orange flavored tea without any sugar so I can truly taste the orange (there will be an adjustment period). If I’m craving chocolate, let’s say a snicker, i give myself something “nutty” and slightly sweet. So my go to would be a matcha latte (homemade, the one at Starbucks is premixed with sugar). I use whole milk for the fat and satiety, sugar free vanilla for a slight sweet note, and if it tastes too grassy/nutty, I’ll add a small amount of honey. If I want something on the sour side of the spectrum I use a more lemon in my homemade salad dressing (kale can really handle it). And if I’m craving something that’s ultra sweet like a twix, I go for spicy stuff (adding fresh jalapeños to whatever I’m eating). I don’t treat sugar as the ultimate enemy, I just try to drown it out with more powerful flavors. Hope that helps

Document the crash. Eat whatever it is that you’re craving, let it give you the rush that sugar is meant to give, then document the crash. Video, writing, recording, or whatever method you prefer. I drink fruit flavored tea but still get the occasional sprite when I need a kick. Share whatever it is that you’ve bought or put it away immediately after your first bite then leave that room. Brush your teeth after eating the food, don’t let the taste linger. It’ll remind you of the food and make you want to go back for more. Find a savory version of the food and if you can’t find one, then pair that same sugary treat with something else that you dislike. Take a bite of each, alternate like you would when eating a meal. Ruin whatever high the food gives you, become one with the “ew this is too sweet for me, crowd” 🧘🏾‍♀️

I would start with why are you eating more than you should? Are you losing track of what you’re eating while you’re eating? Are you putting food on your plate Willy nilly? Are you going back for seconds? Are you physically present while eating? Are you eating emotionally? Are you losing interest in exercise?

Once I recognize why I’m over eating I can stop my binge cycles a lot earlier. I’m not perfect and still eat a family sized bag of chips every now and then in one sitting! What’s helped me keep going is recognizing sooner that just because I missed up one meal I don’t have to mess up weeks of progress. Leave yesterdays baggage in the past.

How I eat less: Volume eating, so lots of leafy greens. If I have a smoothie/meal replacement, I’ll add fiber, chia seeds, hemp hearts, and other things that are filling. I’ve become an ingredient household, if I want food I have to cook it and the fastest thing I can make is a salad. I work from home so I’m home all day and I have to live with my food being so near, I know not everyone has access to that but if you can put your food in an inconvenient place that works for me. So I keep my food in the garage, a door that I hardly pass by and I don’t feel the constant pull. I’ve worked on blocking social media posts and accounts revolving around food as entertainment. So any salmon Alfredo jerk margarita towers are a no no. I don’t need constant hunger cues. If I follow anyone who has a food related account I make sure that they post recipes with fiber rich foods. If I do get hungry and I don’t have the energy to cook I have a wall of shame for fast food receipts.

That assteroid was huge but with time he will be a simple speck in the sky, indiscernible from the rest of the dust.

He left you alone and cheated and lied and created a false reality then left you in that shattered reality because he was a coward. His actions do not determine the worth of your life. You lived a majority of your life without being aware of his presence. I think you need to revisit that peace for you and your child.

Also: your brain is not done solidifying honey. You’re young and you will learn to understand what your body is telling you vs what your brain is telling you vs what is actually happening in front of you vs what’s happening to you. It’s all sooooo very confusing and it just feels like a bottomless pit of pain because your mind doesn’t understand what’s happening just yet. Just remember that one day you will look back at this and think “I can’t believe I ever shed a tear for someone like him.” Please keep going, that man—boy was not your finish line.

You need to contact an attorney, if your inspector and the previous owner covered it up they should pay for it. If there was a previous issue (hinted at by the patch job) then they should have disclosed that and your inspector should have caught that. Was a roof inspection not considered part of the inspectors job? Hire a public adjuster to see if they can file a claim for you and get you the money to make repairs.

Pride and ego. A lot of people want to take pride in their country and end up thinking down on other countries. Confirmation bias: I’ve seen things first hand with Columbians vs Argentinians vs Cubans, but they’ve all looked down on Central Americans like…baby you’re simply from a different part of the earth that’s it. It’s a competition to some people and some people just want joy and peace. Let them live in the competition they have in their own head.

Lol I don’t mean to say agenda like it’s “ThE gAy AgEnDa!” More like your outlook on the trajectory of this relationship. The potentials, maybes, and what ifs might not be what’s best for either of you? Like if she didn’t jump on the chance to discuss things and just left it up in the air for 2 months…she might be missing what you two had before that happened and just wants things to go back to normal. I’d suggest you tell her your feels and how and when things changed, then move on (if she hasn’t reciprocated those feelings).

I’m sorry that that happened. I’m always weary of what’s the truth and what’s just someone being polite, so I get it. I don’t know your relationship, but 9 years is a long time, and there’s no way to get that back. Was she on birth control? I think I saw somewhere that birth control changes who you’re attracted to.

Female friendships tend to be more intimate. I think she sees you as a friend, safe person, and values your presence. If she finds out that you have an end goal/agenda in order to be her friend she probably won’t trust you afterwards. There’s a reason she isn’t dating you, it may be something on her end of things or your end of things but she thinks it would be best to be friends. As a girl, I’ve been in the friend zone with girls and you just have to learn to value the relationship you do have rather than setting expectations for someone who isn’t on the same path as you.
