it’ll be a long one. 🙂
so just a little bit of background I’ve always had acne ever since middle school so when I was 14yrs old (I’m 22 now) I’ve always been on benzoyl peroxide or salycid acid or a combo on both but it would always clear & then come back again with cystic acne around my cheeks & jawline. I rarely get pimples on my forehead, on my nose maybe once every 5/6 months. skin is a combination & usa
Im a male I train 5x a week for 2 hours so no weight issues. I’ve been eating the same thing on a weekly basis for about two years. I eat chicken, salmon, veggies, brown rice, black beans, eggs, ground beef & bacon (I drain almost all the oil from it) I drink about a gallon & half of water daily, 2/3 cups of coffee(one of them with 2 table spoons of sugar) , monster zero pre workout , & protein bars (gluten free). a banana, maybe an apple. I eat that 6 days out of the week & on my day “off” usually I get a grilled fish with avocado, salad, rice, beans or I go to panda express beef & broccoli a half of rice & veggies & chow mein. I take a joint support supplement, creatine & Nmd. I have tried digestive enzymes & probiotics but I still experienced digestive issues.
I’m getting about 5/6 hours sleep on a daily basis & I function really well on it. there have been times due to work or school where I get more sleep like 8-10 hours or less like 2-4 & I have noticed no difference regarding if sleep affects my acne.
Currently I started with the treeActiv line on Amazon Cleanser (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01BHYAPJS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_6pEVCbMMD4BJP)
Moisturizer (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01BPDN5L6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_ZqEVCbPHR5RW7.
I use them twice a day. I work out in the morning but I only wash my face with water & moisturize with Dove men face lotion. also I use the dove since it has spf after putting the treeActiv Cream. once my skin gets less pimples I’ll switch to a morning routine of dove men sensitive face wash & face lotion. Night will be a the treeActiv products. I hope they work.
so far day 2 I started purging a lot like I haven’t seen my acne this bad in such a long time. Today is day 5 I woke up & noticed that the white heads have been pushed out of my skin just like when you use an acne patch so I guess it’s doing its work?
I am currently on a 6 day water fast to see if it can detox my body so I can eliminate the monster & the last drops of sugar on my coffee. Tips that I’ve gotten from other forums that I’ll add after this water fast will be lime with water first thing in the morning, a supplement for strogen support & change my pillow cases on a daily basis.
What else would you guys recommend? I’m very confident but still deep down inside acne is one of my biggest insecurities even tho I never express it. kinda kills my motivation to go up to girls & throw some game since I had bad pass experiences.
