Day 36 – Feeling Good
I’m feeling good about myself today. Don’t fall off your chairs in shock.
I haven’t had a headache all day. I’ve had some nice things to eat today without going overboard and haven’t felt particularly hungry. I’ve lost some weight despite being on my period. I’ve had my hair done. I’m wearing my nice skinny jeans and a top that suits me. I had a real “good to be alive” buzz after my exercise routine.
It’ll all go to pot tomorrow, but hey, today is good.
