When I arrived at college, I switched to skim milk, 2 glasses a day, because I thought, well Im drinking all this milk, I might as well reduce the fat intake from it. I have noticed in the past month that in getting horrible whiteheads around my chin etc and was like um wtf? I was on some pricey perscription medication that was doing well and then I got this. (I thought at first it was the increased amount of oil and vinegar consumption, but reading has shown me otherwise..I love my vinegar!) SOOOO, avoid skim milk. From now on, I am going to only have milk (2% now) on weekends and switch to water for weekdays. I shall post my findings next week or after to see if this has any effect. ~Hoho

In fact, mine has gotten worse somehow and i switched to water. But i doubt water has anything to do with it. This sucks. /wrist Edited by Hohenheim, Oct 15 2008, 01:19 AM.
