我十多年来一直饱受囊性痤疮困扰,最终通过治疗幽门螺杆菌治愈了痤疮。我和我的伴侣都感染了幽门螺杆菌,通过抗生素治疗和肠道重建后,我的痤疮得到了治愈。IVF过程从咨询到胚胎移植大约需要四个月的时间,但因人而异。在IVF过程中,我并没有完全戒掉咖啡因,只是计划在胚胎移植前减少摄入量。与伴侣一起创业,既巩固了我们的关系,也经历了压力,目前我们正在适应工作和生活的新平衡。我每天的饮食会根据我的喜好而变化,但通常包括富含蛋白质的食物,例如鸡蛋、酸奶、肉类和鱼类,以及水果和蔬菜。我非常喜欢Skims的内衣,因为它舒适透气,并且款式多样。我非常喜欢Maui Nui鹿肉,因为它健康、美味且来源可靠。目前我没有服用Ozempic,因为我正在进行IVF治疗,并且Ozempic可能会对怀孕造成影响。我从不担心体重反弹,因为减肥对我来说是一次重塑自我的旅程。我保持谦逊,是因为我从小就缺乏自信,并且周围的人和我的伴侣一直支持着我。我的伴侣Greg在IVF过程中给予了我很多支持,包括陪伴、照顾和鼓励。IVF治疗让我购物欲增加,可能是因为想要寻求即时满足感。我喜欢使用木质砧板,避免使用塑料砧板。我最近最喜欢的运动服品牌是Adenola,其次是Crop Shop Boutique、Form by Sammy Spalter和Aviator Nation。我正在过渡到一种更女性化、更注重内心的生活方式,这与我过去高强度的生活方式有所不同。我喜欢Masa薯片,因为它成分简单,健康美味。女性服用肌酸非常重要,因为它对肌肉水合、认知功能都有益。克服健身房的尴尬感,关键在于记住每个人都在努力提升自己,并且专注于自己的训练。我有一些多囊卵巢综合征的症状,但这是一种症状复杂的疾病,而且我认为可以通过营养和生活方式来改善。我的消遣是吃柠檬派和阅读奇幻小说。友谊对我来说意味着相互支持、相互理解,以及在彼此生活中共同经历美好与挑战。克服完美主义的关键在于,即使不完美也要开始行动,并从过程中学习。
