Final Accutane Results

When it comes to the “after” part of a before and after, seeing is always better than reading.  So I decided to put on my webcam to show you exactly what results I got from 4 1/2 months of Accutane.  It’s obnoxiously close-up, but it’s all here!

Accutane Update – Or How An Acne Problem Has Now Made Me a Vegan….

When I cruised on the Disney Fantasy back in March, I was completely and totally exhausted.  While my fellow Traveling Moms went to shows and hung out at the various clubs on board, I sat in bed watching Shark Tank and going to bed early.  I mentioned the exhaustion to my dermatologist but she wasn’t too concerned.

Until my blood work came back with high liver enzymes.  I was immediately taken off of Accutane for two weeks, and I found that the exhaustion lifted as soon as I stopped taking the pills.  I returned to the doctor this morning to find that my liver enzymes had returned to normal.

And then, she mentioned my cholesterol.  I’ve always had high cholesterol, and both of my parents and my sister have high cholesterol also.  Accutane also makes cholesterol rise.

“What are you eating?”, she asked, in a somewhat judgmental tone.  “Chicken, fish, fruit, rice…..”, I replied…. someone defensively.  I felt obese, overweight, unhealthy, and gross – in addition to having bad acne.

Then she put me on a vegan diet.  Vegan… as in no meat.  No fish. No cheese. No milk in my coffee.  How in the world do I eat vegan?  Any tips?
