What pre wedding beauty/wellness regimens are you doing leading up to your wedding?! I’ll be treating myself to monthly facials; orange theory 1-2 a week and will be doing a keto diet a few months before the big day 💞 wish me luck 😅

I'm on a keto diet too. I combine it sometimes with one meal a day. Not a long term solution but very effective at losing extra pounds quickly.

I started in November. I didn’t want to lose weight too drastically this time so this gives a few months to normalize. I still went off keto for vacations and important dinners. In the past, I have lost 15 pounds in 6 weeks, but that was too much work and willpower.

Love that! Seems like we are all doing similar preparation :) congratulations!

Eating healthier and exercising. I also get light therapy facials to help with some acne scaring on my face.

I bought a 10 pack session at my medspa and I’m going every couple of weeks. The esthetician will recommend a good schedule for you based off of your skin and how you respond.

I did clean eating (which was honestly great for my digestive health - wish I could go back to being that disciplined) and hydrafacials with dermaplaning. I had grand plans of working out a ton too but wound up with a stress fracture, so definitely be careful if you’re upping the intensity of your routine!

I've been working out since early 2020 6x/ week and lost ~30lbs. However, I didn't adjust my eating -only switched to an intermittent fasting schedule (eat between 12-8pm). Now, I'm trying to focus on better eating. I struggle with sweets - If it's around me, I need it all lol and Uber eats is a weakness bc of all the dessert places! My meals are relatively balanced so not a major issue...

I've heard of intuitive eating but sounds a bit fluffy (lol) - other tips? What has worked for you? Help!!

I didn't apply for a job that would have set me up for the future in the government. I wouldn't have to worry about money or future jobs. My boss had just given me a small pay rise and talked up the future and so I felt good. I now severely regret not applying for the job and cannot stop thinking about it to the point of insomnia and depression. I even contacted the employer but too late. It's a small town and rarely anything comes up. I hate myself and feel like I failed my family. :(

Any tips on how to improve lining thickness? My RE had me on Estrace for a week before starting Prometrium (vaginally) a few days ago, but my lining is only a little above 5mm. Looks likely that this FET cycle is going to get canceled (was potentially going to be this weekend) since the lining doesn’t seem to be thick enough. This will be the 3rd transfer cycle that’s getting canceled, it just really sucks...what’s worse is I didn’t see my doctor today, just the sono tech, (cont’d)

I’m just really happy that I found someone who is willing to take a vow to spend his life with me and I’m so excited for that day :)
