[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot!   Lagree, light botox, high quality medical grade skin care, low dose semaglutide, HRT.  I look great (I get lots of compliments on my skin, and my BMI is 19), but it's expensive and time-consuming.  Haters are going to hate on here.[/quote]

Your BMI is 19!  And you are on a semaglutide?  WTH.  Do you not care about your health and bone density? [/quote]

So even though I was a competitive athlete as a kid, my bone density and muscle tone are the best they've been in my entire adult life (I do DEXA scans every 6 months since starting GLP-1), but I should qualify that with a few things: I do resistance training 5 days a week, I make sure I'm getting enough protein every day, I only microdose GLP-1 now for maintenance and the psychological benefits (I'm finally free from unhealthy food obsession and only eat when I'm hungry), and I take a bunch of supplements including some HRT that I think has been really helpful with bone density and muscle tone.  Lagree is $250/month, and GLP1s are $199 per month.

For skin care, I do botox every 4 months and while it's light, I go to a qualified comsetic dermatologist so it's not cheap, and I've recently added frown lines and neck bands.  $900 per quarter.  I also do lasers once or twice a year for collagen stimulation.  $2000 a pop.  Skin care is medical-grade.  Makeup is light because my skin looks too good to hide - mostly tinted sunscreen, brows, lashes, lips, liquid blush.

Hair is every eight weeks, just a trim and touch-up on color. I have a little grey in my mid forties that is still easy to camouflage.

I do my own nails.  I don't love facials.  I get a massage once every six months, but I wish it were once a month.  I average $5000/year on clothes but I work in a professional office and my income easily justifies the spend.

I know some people will hate this, but it works for me, and it's anonymous, so whatever.
