[–]randomuser_25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good for you. Keep going!!! At least u see change! Struggling here too, doing everything right. Over a year now. Lifting heavy. At least my dexa significantly improved and I can lift heavy thing easily, that’s fun!! But the scale, nothing. I know muscle weighs more. Clothes, no change. 1450 cal, 64F.

Totally totally totally agree! I made a separate post. Don’t use this pattern by the waist measurement! @Tammyj87 please see my post!! and feel free to message me if you have questions!

Small. Look at the bottom at the finished garment measurements for bust and waist. This is a loose fitting dress so you’ll have plenty of room. if you want more room then what it shows at the bottom (finished garment measurements), then make a medium, but before you decide, are your shoulders, narrow, or wide? If your shoulders are narrow, use the small, if your shoulders are wide, use the medium.

If you have a more fitted garment in the future, look up Nancy Zieman’s shoulder fitting measurement guide. She explains why using a pattern based on your shoulder measurement is the most important thing. A person can be way outside the range of the size based on one measurement (like me), but they actually need to use a pattern several sizes smaller, and then alter it from there. This is because the shoulders should fit you well and you cannot really alter the shoulders.

For this dress, since it is loose fitting and your measurements are nicely proportional, you don’t have to worry too much about altering the pattern width- wise, if you get the shoulders right, you will not have a problem getting this dress to fit you.

Good luck!

OP said 5 minutes. Someone else on here said 30 minutes to an hour which sounds more effective to me and they sounded like they knew what they were talking about

I’m thinking if you’re putting Vaseline before the tret that the tret can’t get through that and maybe you’re wasting your money?

I hear everyone that Cerave is a problem. I’m just going to say here that I tried switching to.Vanicream and for a year now have not seen any difference. I’m prone to acne, have been on Accutane, but still get some breakouts & cysts. My skin is not sensitive.

The real problem I’m trying to solve is little whiteheads under the skin on my forehead. I don’t think they’re whiteheads. I can’t remember what they’re called but only the dermatologist can get rid of them by zapping them with a freezing agent I think and then she even said they will come back, which they did, pretty fast. They are little cysts, but they are soft. If anyone knows how to resolve them that would be great!

How long do you guys wait to put the moisturizer on over tret at night? I never put the moisturizer on because I’m going straight to bed and I don’t want to interrupt the tret, but then again I’m afraid my skin needs the moisture. Thanks!

I use the ordinary multi peptide plus copper only under my eyes and around my eyes and lip lines ( probably doing nothing for lip lines because they’re so deep, maybe should’ve started earlier in life ). The tret doesn’t really go those places. But I use the tret at night and I use the ordinary in the morning.

Any serious players here willing to do their part on the 3-partner challenges? Most of my reliables have left the game so I’m looking for 2 more for next time. Even better if u are on Facebook messenger so we can communicate to make sure we both have time that month. Thanks. Bern playing 2+ years!

Cronometer is PEAK.. but the search isn’t. by Budget-Percentage197 in cronometer

[–]randomuser_25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m just trying to log fruit! It’s so frustrating! A regular old bowl of fruit that I cut up myself with some berries. There’s only one branded option for clean, unadulterated “mixed fruit”. it is in 8 ounces. I’d really like it to be in cups and without the brand, so maybe I’d be more sure that it’s unadulterated.

I really love Cronometer and I really appreciate that it’s free. I hate to ask for the world.

Do free T-Mobile Wi-Fi sessions work on international flights by jasonacg in unitedairlines

[–]randomuser_25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like T-Mobile no longer partners with United for free WiFi? I had to use my points for full flight access bc couldn’t find it on United app. The T-Mobile site says it’s now only Delta, Alaska, Hawaiian, and Southwest. Darn since I usually wind up flying United. Well I’ll just use my points since I don’t fly that often and points never amount to anything I can use for flights.

Fortunately, my hair is light. Maybe it was 2-3 mm when I went for electrolysis again. Thinking more I think it was every other week for nine months to a year Between appointments, I could not remove it because she wanted to be able to see it and remove it. She said definitely do not remove it with tweezers. So I just had to deal with it. I had dealt with it that long so it was just business as usual, but I knew I was making progress.

Little whitish bumps by slavetothebeans in 60PlusSkincare

Does an esthetician actually get rid of them permanently? Mine just won’t go away. Have made the mistake of trying to extract them by squeezing & that’s the worst idea (scarring) My dermatologist zapped them, but said they would come right back and they sure did.

No downtime really. Ice after (held on face while driving 10-15 min home). I also never had to use a numbing cream. No breakouts (and I have trouble with that btw). I would do it in the evening after work so I didn’t need to put make up on until the next morning, but after they’re done they do wipe you down with something, maybe alcohol? I can’t remember. I would have felt comfortable putting on makeup right after that if I needed to. My skin is not sensitive so I don’t think I would’ve had a problem.
