I rarely wear more than tinted SPF and brow gel these days, but I’m turning 35 this month and experiencing body image issues for the first time in my life. In a bid to feel more confident I am trying to put more effort into my appearance. I live in a really casual corner of the US so I don’t want to look “over done”.
My nose contour is under - blended (didn’t realize until looking at the photo). My nose is my biggest facial insecurity and I feel like my make up is not minimizing it at all.
Just shy of 7 months (10/7/25) post op from my (34F) second ACLr (Patellar Autograft/ ACL only) in the last 2.5 years.
I crushed my first endurance race of the year -adventure gravel- last weekend and felt so solid after spending all Winter hitting the gym and weights hard. I will scream to the roof tops that your recovery will be so much better if you start getting comfortable on a stationary bike before your surgery (with the OK from your doc of course).
Absolutely zero knee pain or swelling despite pedaling my bike up steep hills and mountains for 8.5 hours. I can’t wait to see my PT next week to share the good news that I podiumed without even trying.
