I’m in my early 40s and I’m only now appreciating what lovely skin I had as a teenager / in my 20s. I rarely had breakouts, usually blemish free and didn’t have to work for it.
But now... it’s like my skin has got my age the wrong way around. I’m getting spots on my jaw line and this week they’ve migrated to my neck. WTF is that about?
My body shape is changing too which I’m struggling with. I was always one of those annoying people who could eat what they wanted without thinking about it and took advantage of that. Well, not now. I’m the heaviest I’ve ever been and struggling with it. I am not friends with the mirror.
The weight I know what to do - I’m doing HIIT 3 times a week, trying to keep steps at 10,000 a day or more, running more regularly and thinking about what I’m eating.
I have no idea what to do with my skin though. Can anyone transform me back into the version of myself that I thought was fat and ugly 20 years ago? Because she wasn’t as bad as I thought...
