  1. my dietician basically put me on a lowcarb high Protein diet. and recommended premier Protein shakes.
  2. how much did u lose in the 6 months total? thanks for your response!
  3. Does anyone know what the insurance company will be looking at? Will they be looking at the STARTING weight & LAST weight? or will they look at every single visit with the nutritionist? Reason I ask is because I went up & down in these last 6 months and I really have tried really hard! As of now, I'm only 7 pounds down with ONE MORE nutrition visit in December. Curious if the insurance will only look at my final weight, or all of my progress notes! SCARED SHITLESS!!!!

  8. LMFAOOO @ the username tho
  9. how are you doing hun? i have been doing the Shakes & one very lowcarb meal & 1 very low carb snack . I lost 4 pounds since Sunday! just wanted to give you a little motivation since we're in the same boat. hope all is well!!
  10. how much did u lose ? if you can remember .
  11. how many a day did u have?
  12. mine just asked about my eating behaviors & said she was happy to hear that i wasn't an emotional eater who eats when stressed. so maybe try not to say that part- if you are. or do say it! they can help you . that's what this is about. getting the help we need.
  13. how much are you anticipated to lose by doing this for 2weeks?
  14. please let me know any tips u come up with. i need to lose 18 in 6 weeks lol.
  15. oh fawk!! lmao. that'll teach her!
  16. ohh okay! @kristenLe. I do have the pink one... I'll give the honey one a try before I call the wax kit quits lol. thanks! one more thing, do you use powder before waxing? the kit didn't come with one.. so I didn't use any!
  17. lmao. which kind do you use? i had small scabs under my eyes & was way too embarrassed to say it was from waxing my face! [emoji23] I said it was sunburn & my coworkers looked at me crazy lol.
  18. lmao! i have the gigi brand & ripped off some of my skin on my cheeks under my eyes. i never used it again lol.
  19. but for someone who can't afford treatments....? that's her concern.
  20. don't shave hun! I have a very small 5 o'clock shadow now . the best thing to do is invest in an epilator & incorporate that into your beauty regimen. the more you shave, the worse it will be. & it will leave a dark spot. I pluck my hair now. I also get waxed every Friday but it's becoming expensive & not really worth it. epilating & plucking in between is going to be the best u can do unless u get that tria. I'm going to save 50 or a hundred bucks from every check to get it . I'm super insecure about my facial hair. I don't even have PCOS. I'm also insecure as hell about my weight. I know this is gona really suck when i start feeling better about my size smh. but again .. please stop shaving! i know its quick & easy, but start plucking & epilating! I wish I didn't shave for as long as I did. I facial hair started very light.. now I look like Drake lmao . i got my epilator from target. it was a pain.. like, painful & annoying to do... but u get used to it . & if you can't afford weekly waxes, it's your best bet hun.
  21. well when i say pluck, i mean my chinny chin chin hairs- not eyebrows lol. but yay! im going to look into it! thanks ladies ????.
  22. So what exactly does it do? it burns the follicle? I wax & epilate. Would this at home laser "kill the root"? Will it minimize growth over time? or slows the growth? I have to pluck like every two days & wax my cheeks every 5! sheeshh!! this sucks.
  23. whats the name of the one you use? my facial hair is sooo dark & thick. I have been waxing for the past year & it doesn't get "thinner eventually". I need to nip this shit in the bud!!!
