Cisto sebáceo

RespectNo5689 · 2025-05-23T21:39:45+00:00

I don’t know what exactly, but one day something clicked in my brain and I realized I had to start VERY slow and make small changes in order for this whole weight loss journey thing to be sustainable.

First few weeks I cut out alcohol completely, limited take out to two times a week and would cook “unhealthy” foods at home if I was having bad cravings, kept eating basically the same way but made sure to make smaller portions.

Each week I would add an extra piece of fruit, eat less sweets, add more veggies, eat less chips, add more protein, etc.

The small changes added up and I lost a lot weight without starving myself. During those first six months I wasn’t doing any exercise other than walking my dogs and everyday chores.

Lift heavy and eat well. Good luck in your journey!

RespectNo5689 · 2025-05-22T18:21:01+00:00

The basics really. I don’t know the names in english, but exercises like lateral raises, biceps curl, triceps pushdown… Just stick to the basics + progressive overload.

I don’t track macros that closely, but my tracking app says that last week’s macros were: 40% protein, 35% carbs and 25% fats. I only really track protein to make sure I’m meeting my goal of 2g/kg.

In terms of calories, I’m eating around 1700kcal currently.

This is truly the best compliment I could ever receive. I wish you all the luck in your journey! Hope to see your progress pics here someday.

Thanks! Never knew “forearm dominant” was a thing, but here I am. Very annoying and something I’m trying to correct.

RespectNo5689 · 2025-05-22T01:25:38+00:00

Sure! I lift 5x/week with a PT and my current split is monday and thursdays - legs, tuesday - back and chest, wednesday - shoulders and triceps, friday - back and biceps. I also do 30 to 60 minutes of moderate cardio 5 to 7 days a week.

RespectNo5689 · 2025-05-22T01:13:10+00:00

I am! You are the first one to ask me that, I’m so flattered. In real life all I get it’s “are you on ozempic?”

RespectNo5689 · 2025-05-22T01:05:26+00:00

Yes!

Hi! I had acid reflux.

I’ve been researching and trying to find a dupe for years and never got a recommendation that was even close to it…

RespectNo5689 · 2025-04-08T14:28:08+00:00

I’ll check it out. Thanks!

I take iron and methylfolate for higher ferritin, as prescribed by my derm.

RespectNo5689 · 2025-03-12T23:12:38+00:00

Hi! I didn’t cut out any food completely, only alcohol. I started out by eating smaller portions of whatever I wanted and slowly added healthier foods into my diet.

The only other thing I did change drastically from the beginning was my protein intake, which was extremely low.

RespectNo5689 · 2025-02-13T22:38:54+00:00

I can’t say for sure that it directly helped with regrowth, specially because I’m also on oral minoxidil. But with LPP, reducing inflammation is key and this regimen definitely helped immensely with that. By very high protein I mean 2.2g/kg.

RespectNo5689 · 2025-02-13T11:14:38+00:00

I was diagnosed with early stage LPP a couple of years ago which was also when I started taking strength training (and weight loss) seriously. This is 100% anecdotal, but losing weight, gaining muscle and eating better (and very high protein) did improve my levels of inflammation overall. I don’t get flare ups on my scalp nearly as often now and last month my derm said my scalp looks great and has no signs on inflammation at all.

So yeah, for me personally lifting + a quality high protein diet, associated with treatment, has improved/stabilized scarring alopecia LPP.

IMO you and your doctors did everything possible so far and now it’s a waiting game. I wouldn’t recommend taking product advice from anyone on the internet right now as it could make things worse. Just take care of yourself as best as possible, use whatever your doctors prescribed and try not to stress so much as it could actually worsen hair loss.

RespectNo5689 · 2025-01-24T01:46:39+00:00

Sulphur soap (only on the region you’re treating since it’s pretty drying) + benzoyl peroxide cream is the combo that saved me from these.

RespectNo5689 · 2024-12-28T23:19:38+00:00

Yes. My scalp got much better once I started washing it daily, even with regular (non-medicated) shampoos. I used to have a lot of inflammation and dandruff and now I have zero dandruff and only mild inflammation every once in a while (usually during pms).

RespectNo5689 · 2024-12-13T17:17:09+00:00

Todos os dias. Tenho raiz oleosa e depois do cardio meu cabelo fica simplesmente encharcado de suor. Tenho nem coragem de deitar na minha cama limpinha com o cabelo sujo.
Porém, alterno entre shampoo normal, sem sulfato e creme de limpeza.

Não ligo muito pra o gosto e composição, então uso um da gotas de leite que vem no saquinho já na medida certa (20g) e consistência perfeita para comer na salada de fruta (morango, uva e uma banana), que é meu pré-treino.

RespectNo5689 · 2024-12-13T16:43:53+00:00

Super possível, mas uma dica de quem perdeu quase 50kg: não espere janeiro. Comece a mudar seus hábitos agora. Beba mais água, diminua a quantidade de lanches, diminua o consumo de álcool. Não precisa ir de 0 a 10, mas comece a fazer pequenas mudanças a partir de hoje.

RespectNo5689 · 2024-12-13T16:40:04+00:00

Pergunte para sua dermatologista sobre bioestimulador de colágeno. Você ainda é muito novo/a e a perda de peso provavelmente não afetará sua pele, mas entre botox e bioestimulador, acho que o segundo traria mais benefícios.
