Dear Ana D,

I caved a little. Nothing too serious, but I totally picked a zit today. For real. I just felt like the hard bit on top was hanging around too long, and it wasn't healing fast enough. The thought in my brain was that if I just picked off the hard part it would go away. It might be true, but it's still picking a zit. To be honest, I've been picking zits on my back anyways. *sigh* no new nail polish for me this week. But I've still got to keep it up. I'm doing really well with not majorly squeezing blackheads at night. I'm taking the zen approach: I accept that I picked, and now I'm going to continue not picking. On the flossing and face-washing front, going quite well.

I'm also back on the bandwagon with the dieting. Yes, I went over by 511 calories today, because I had lots of snacks AND cupcakes after dinner. But I worked out for an hour and undid the damage. So I feel good about it. I missed my workout yesterday anyways. 

Tomorrow starts Week One Part 2: crunches daily and drinking 48 oz of water daily. No rewards for this one specifically, but I'll come up with a good one on Week Two.

Thanks for your support.

Sincerely,

Lai Chayre
