Swimsuit help

Not sure what my body type is exactly, but I have the hardest time finding bottoms that are flattering on me. I feel like they all “cut” me in half almost bc my love handles are so large. These bottoms aren’t tight in the slightest bit, they just look so unflattering. String bikinis seem to be about my only friend but I just really don’t like them. I feel like such a toad when I wear my swimsuit bc as soon as I put the bottoms on I look so much heavier. Ideas? What sort of bottoms should I be tryinng?
ETA: I WAS ONLY POSTING THE FIRST PIC TO SHOW YALL MY FIGURE AND HOW THEY CUT INTO MT LOVE HANDLES AND MAKE ME APPEAR LARGER. I WOULD NEVER WEAR THE BOTTOMS LIKE THAT😂 I’m loving all the advice though 😍

Lower bleph with fat repositioning

This might be a dumb question, but did you feel like you looked different after your bleph? Or just like you without eyebags? I don’t want my face to look “different” I want to look like me without eyebags. Do you just look refreshed? Did anyone really notice you even had a procedure done? Also, I’m someone that bruises so easily. I got undereye filler in 2016 and I bruised and swelled really bad. If you bruise terribly like me how long did it take you to heal where you could comfortably go out in public? I’ve dealt with bags and dark circles my whole entire life and I am so sick of looking at them. Hoping to get in with Vrcek in the winter months. Would love advice/feedback 🤞🏻

First time for Botox

How old were you when you first started getting Botox? I will be 32 in just a few weeks and think I may want to start. I remember being young and thinking my dad had the wrinkliest forehead ever, and here I am getting some pretty severe forehead wrinkles 😅 can I get it in my forehead only? Not really interested in getting it anywhere else, just want to soften the lines and buy me some time.

Sunken hollow eyebags

I hve super sunken and hollow eyes, I have my whole life. Along with that comes the dark circles and eye bags. The eye bags are really starting to come on now. I cannot stand looking at them anymore, and cannot imagine what they will look like in just a few more years. My only problem is being afraid I will look more hollow than I am. I am hoping fat reposition with a skin pinch will help restore my confidence. I know my undereyes probably won’t be 100%, but any sort of improvement will help me. The photos are misleading bc you can’t really see the bag, but I do have one. Just wanted to show how hollow I am, I just have huge eye sockets unfortunately. Anyone else with sunken/deep set eyes have a lower bleph with fat repositioning and not look worse? I have a consult with Dr Vrcek in September, just would love to hear experience from others. I hate my deep set eyes so much. Included pics of me smiling so you could see how sunken,at rest to see how prominent and long th tear trough is, and the last one is me just barely pulling on the skin to show how the tear trough and darkness goes away. Ideally my end goal. less

SAHM boredom

I’ve been a stay at home Mom for the last 10 years almost. I am only 32 and sadly I hate to admit that I’ve never been like the fun playful outgoing mom. I feel like especially these last six months. I’ve really kind of lost myself we used to travel a lot for work so every day I would take my kids and go on a walk and we go to the park. Try to find some sort of waterpark or something along the lines to get us out of our camper. We’ve been at our house for the last five years since my kids started school and they stay busy during school, but summer breaks after baseball and softball season is over We tend to not do very much. I have a boy and a girland they’re very close in age so them playing together doesn’t happen too often because they want to do different things. My son wants to do some kind of sports and my daughter wants to do baby dolls and stuff. I feel like a bad mom because I don’t have any friends myself so I feel like if I don’t have something for them to do almost every day all we do is sit at home watch TV play outside get in the pool every so often I just feel like we’re living a very boring life right now whenever I was a kid, I didn’t have the option of being bored. I found something to do which I know times are very different and kids don’t get together like we used to am I just in my head am I thinking about this too much cause I feel like a very terrible mom when we’re at home everyday. is this just a normal day for people that stay at home? Are we all just staying at home? I mean if we leave the house we spend $100 bare minimum I have just been feeling like such a terrible mom here lately because I don’t have very many fun things for them to do. And they’re constantly saying “I’m bored we never do anything but stay home”

Long hair

I’ve always had long lighter blonde hair. Never done anything different with it. When I was young I went in for a trim and she hacked it off all the way to my ears, I had a perm as well and it was awful. Ever since I was terrified to get it cut again. Has anyone cut their hair off and regret it? I’ve had the urge to go shorter and darker and AI tools are not helping. What do you think? I have fine hair getting wavier as I get older. Just worried it’s going to be more maintenance than I want and it won’t grow back if I hate it lol. My hair hasn’t grown passed this length in a long time. Look in comments for what I’m in love with. I’d like ideas as well 😊

Gained 60 lbs

I took lexapro in the past and loved it, however I gained a ton of weight. But my anxiety is too high to try another medication. If you’re on lexapro and Wellbutrin are you liking it? Did it help with the weight gain? Idk what to do but I’ve never been so low in my life. It’s to the point I can’t even sleep anymore which is making things worse. I suffer from body dysmorphia and need to get a grip on it. Please give me advice

Textured skin large pores

In the meantime what should I do? I hate my skin. I feel like I look like a raisin. I have been using the l cleanse mornin and night, using medicine zero pore pads, a nice moisturizer and sometimes castor oil. I use color science spf makeup daily. I know it’s mainly genetics, but I hate the reflection looking back at me. Give me tips. I have sensitive oily skin.

Not sleeping

I am desperate. I haven’t slept more than 2 hours at night in about a month. I believe this is all caused by stress/depression issues. I know the exact issue causing me to feel this way, however it’s a problem that has no solution so that’s why it makes it so tough. I think if I could at least sleep again I wouldn’t feel near as bad as I do. The no sleeping is really taking its toll on me. I’ve tried melatonin, zzzzquil, Tylenol pm chamomile tea getting out of bed when I can’t sleep trying to wear myself out during they. Nothing works. I literally cannot fall asleep it’s frustrating. I have an appointment with a psychiatrist Wednesday and I’m desperate for a sleeping aide possibly an antidepressant too. However the other side of me is terrified of taking medicine and all the side effects. In a perfect world I wouldn’t need medicine. But this has gone on long enough and I truly don’t know how much more I can take. I’m so desperate not to feel this way but I feel like I’ve tried everything I could possibly do. Anyone else been in the same boat? Will I ever sleep again? I hate this feeling so much .
