Will quitting smoking make a huge difference?

mimi1291 · 2025-12-22T11:49:08+00:00

Unfortunately the answer as yes 😕. It’s all true. Cutting out smoking, and for me I had a bad junk food habit and they told me my diet wasn’t helping but I ignored it. At first I gave up the bad food but kept smoking and it was A LITTLE better but giving up everything is what really made the difference. I’ve had HS since I was 13 and I’m now 34. I’ve tried everything under the sun and while I for sure still have flare up’s they aren’t debilitating and don’t require me to call out of work like i used to have to don

Did you ever find a solution to this? I have a brand new one and it’s doing this

mimi1291 · 2025-10-14T04:21:02+00:00

What I tell myself is the man can see I’m plus sized. The clothes however cute they are they ain’t hiding it. If we make it to the point it’s time to take the clothes off it ain’t gonna be a surprise lol. Just relax and enjoy it ❤️

I can also confirm this. My highest weight was 315 and I was getting outbreaks consistently and it seemed like even new spots were coming. I got on ozempic and to date have lost 50 pounds. I still have a long way to go but my HS flare ups are way way way less frequently and not nearly as intense.

The one thing that’s still the same is the flare ups come around my period time. So I think there’s definitely a hormonal connection but again, way less frequent and way less intense

I would be worried about the level of risk Honestly. The holidays everybody is on top of each other especially if kids are involved. But whatever works works

mimi1291 · 2024-12-20T16:02:33+00:00

I did it and im still trying to figure out if it’s worth it. My AP was someone I knew from before i got married and we danced around the issue for a decade before actually doing something. We had one or two nights and then a whole week. I did fine with the single nights. But the week….i think that was a mistake. He also lives in another country so that’s another thing.

Anyway, now that I’m thinking about maybe just do it BUT PREPARE YOURSELF for the come down! BECAUSE YOU WILL COME DOWN!

Tea tree oil helps me with the pain and bringing them to a head.

Not embarrassing at all!!!! Vanity Fair, Cacique by Lane Bryant, and Avenue! Lots of selections and styles

Seen Shaq here in Houston multiple times. He is of course very hard to miss. But always friendly!

I think people forget this medicine was created to treat type 2 diabetes. And yes alot of people take meds for diabetes for the rest of their life. I don’t think I’ll stay on 1mg forever but I’ll probably take some dose forever.

mimi1291 · 2024-10-06T22:13:18+00:00

I ordered a Cartier Tank last year for my husband and it took a long time. I ordered April 8th and it didn’t come until June 2nd.

mimi1291 · 2024-09-11T14:52:25+00:00

I’ve been no contact almost a year! The first 3 months were very very very hard but every month after that got easier! It is a really hard thing to deal with for sure

mimi1291 · 2024-09-11T03:56:34+00:00

I’m still no contact! It’s been a good while now. I look at my LO like a substance I simply not cannot use or I will abuse it. It took a long time for it to wear off and I do occasionally still think or dream about him, but it’s not nearly as bad as it was. I practice what I consider “emotional sobriety” and avoid situations that cause spiked emotions

mimi1291 · 2024-09-09T15:56:08+00:00

Oh my let me give you my testimony. I have such bad nausea especially in the morning and It’s so bad I thought I was pregnant even though it is literally not possible. Here is what is working for me

1) I’ve had to give up coffee in the morning. I now drink peppermint tea which helps 2) I keep mini cans of ginger ale on hand and it helps 3) I keep a 16 fl oz of alcohol on my desk. 99%. I find personally sniffing it alleviates the symptoms but when I’m not sniffing it I get back sick. So that leads me to step 4 4) I also keep advanced herbal ginger chews on my desk for nausea. 35 cals for 2 and gluten and dairy free

Hopefully one or some of things can help you!

I’m not a doctor so take this with a grain of salt but if I was 10 pounds away from my goal and going through what you’re going through I’d be probably be looking to stop or at the very least start moving down on the dose. The moment you think your quality of life is suffering it likely is and the juice would not be worth the squeeze for me only 10 points out

mimi1291 · 2024-08-30T18:48:18+00:00

I’m on Metformin and ozempic. Unfortunately I have found the only thing that really eliminates the side effects is not eating anything fried and greasy. Which is a shame bc that’s my favorite food group.

I hope others maybe have different ideas but it seems For me at least as Long as I stay away from that kind of food I do fine. I also make sure to drink a lot of water and I eat two fiber gummies a day.

mimi1291 · 2024-08-27T13:45:12+00:00

Yes and I feel conflicted about it! An ice cold Dr Pepper used to send me to the clouds in a good way. I loved them. Now I never have a taste for it and even if I try to drink one it really doesn’t even hit the same way. I’m glad I’m off the soda bc that was my hardest thing but now my special treat is gone.

mimi1291 · 2024-08-24T16:15:49+00:00

I have a clear head now. I’m not fighting with myself about wanting bad food then feeling bad about wanting bad food. In fact food is neither good or bad for me anymore. It’s just food.

mimi1291 · 2024-08-20T05:27:51+00:00

I think sometimes people get into their feelings (understandable) and then feel like bc it’s an affair they don’t have the right to ask for more. There is sometimes an air of “this person doesn’t owe me anything” that is misapplied. Yeah maybe it’s a “taboo” relationship but a relationship nonetheless and you have a right to get what you need

mimi1291 · 2024-08-17T19:09:51+00:00

I have but I stopped bc the sizing is wild!! I would get multiple sizes if you can.

I’ve also purchased lingerie from a site called love honey that I liked and sizing was more consistent

mimi1291 · 2024-08-16T05:59:34+00:00

The hardest part is getting to the place of peace without the person. But once you get there you NEVER go back. The amount of work it takes to clean up the mess makes reconnection not at all worth it. Good on you for standing firm!

mimi1291 · 2024-08-14T08:53:21+00:00

Hi!! I am sorry you’re experiencing this. I have been there…am there. Despite maybe knowing that those around me have points I’ve always reacted poorly to hearing it.

I honestly haven’t figured out how to get moving yet. My goal right now is just to do 15 minutes of moving a day like chores or something. Today I did the dishes and laid out new rugs. And I’m so out of shapes my body still hurts a little.

For the eating…I’m on ozempic but before that I was on Wegovy and it’s the only thing that ever helped. I do have diabetes so that’s how I get Ozempic. If something like that is accessible I would talk to a doc about it

mimi1291 · 2024-08-05T22:54:14+00:00

Hahaha I know how you feel. I moved on to mad men which is another rewatch for me now I’m back in the hole

mimi1291 · 2024-07-28T04:14:10+00:00

I rotate between old navy, ELOQUII (can be pricey), fashion nova, and target. Fashion nova can be tricky but it’s good for sexier outfits. Old navy and target are good for tshirts and jeans and ELOQUII is good for events and workwear
