Somethings Gotta Give (#2?)
Sooo.
I don't think people perceive me as vain because in order to be vain you kind of have to be pretty (I mean, you could be ugly and vain, but that's possibly even more sad as you have then failed in your efforts). Also, am a geek. But seriously, people with low self-esteem are some of the most egocentric people out there. Hello!! My name is, eh, Librarian Girl, and I am vain.
Anyway, I remember with distinct clarity that several people in different places used to tell me I have the most amazing skin. Like, I wasn't entirely convinced but enough people told me I was like, OK, yeah, not too bad. Never had that much acne. But it's become some kind of distant dream, because for several years I would say I've had bad skin. This year, I would say it's pretty severe. Yes there are people worse off but they've always had it, mine is just, suddenly severe where it didn't used to be. Anyway, I've been trying to ignore it because I was really not wanting to find out it was the fat in my new diet. Because I really don't want to go back to carb-living, EVER. And I've read in several places that people have cured their acne with a high-fat diet. So, hello, confused?
I didn't really want to find out it's probably the dairy either, but I guess it's slightly less catastrophic. Mind you, only just slightly. Apparently it's got to do with hormones, again (of course!). Haven't researched it enough but there's enough arguments I'm going to give it a go.
Anyway, it makes total sense because my skin got worse when I was living in Spain, which is when I became a vegetarian. Bring on the cheese!! And since I became LCHF, I mean, practically all my fat-calories come from dairy. If I go for a quick ICA-run to bring back the essentials, its: cream, creme fraiche, milk, cottage cheese, cheese, and soft cheese. Eeeh. Would probably explain why a good skin day now is a not disastrous skin day where as I used to have good skin most of the time.
Geez. So. Odds for being able to exist as a LCHF vegetarian without eating dairy? I'm going to give it a try, but seriously, what am I going to eat? Fish, nuts, coconut fat, olives, and avocados, I guess. Gonna have to learn to drink coffee black OH DARN.
Hence, vanity. Eating meat or eternal acne? Because Carbs are out of the question.
