    I‘ve been high-restricting down from a higher-end-of-normal weight over the past year and have been struggling a lot with my upper arms that aren’t losing as fast as everywhere else. I increased my restriction slightly since making a post here only a week ago — still high-restriction — and...

    i've been purging a lot and my face looks like shit, especially the lower half. just inflamed-looking and irritated. supposedly toner's purpose is to restore the pH so would that help counteract the stomach acid's effect at least a bit? tbh i kind of dont believe toner actually does anything so...

    I epilate my legs and get a lot of ingrown hairs. I've been trying using a cactus-thistle brush in the shower to exfoliate but I'm not noticing any difference. What techniques do y'all use to exfoliate and stop this menace? P.S. Is exfoliation a prevention? cure?

    Hi everyone! I have relapsed pretty bad into my ED after a few years of being recovered, I have lost 11 pounds in 11 days, and these red spots are appearing on my chest and arms. This happened before when I relapsed a few years ago, but they had only appeared on my chest at that time. I'm...
