F/31/5'6" [161.8 > 143.8 = 18lbs] ~6 months. Not a huge amount but I feel like there's a huge difference.

My diet is mostly concerned with macros, I'll have the minimum amount of food/calories I can eat while still hitting 100g of protein a day, usually around 1300cal?

My next door neighbor is a 3x black belt and literal sensei. He is training me and we are going for "muscle mommy" status. We lift heavy at least 3x a week and I do Pilates type stuff a few times a week.

Not sure if I want to continue cutting or just working on recomposition and gaining muscle.

Thanks for stopping by :)

She loved me and I loved her but it was very very toxic and dysfunctional and she would feed me to keep me "docile".

I swear I'm looking for actual advice and feedback, please no dms

What can I add to this to make it stand out more for my birthday? I tried a black lace robe, red and black duster, corset, belt, body jewelry, I hated it all.

Looking for feedback on my routine and how to improve texture more. My pores bother me and no matter what I do I never look hydrated.

Also concerned about smile lines around my eyes and 11s on my forehead

Current Routine

• Red Light Therapy 5-10mins IR/NIR

• Hypochlorous Acid Spray

• Vitamin C Serum

• Hyaluronic Acid (on damp skin)

• Peptide Serum

I also use stridex occasionally for random acne, but I very rarely get it and it's usually hormonal

Should I add stridex in more often for my pores?

Thanks for any advice
