Consumerism At Its Finest
1 month ago
I’m guilty of consumerism. Considering the country that we live in who could blame us? How many times a day have I heard the commericial for, “Need help paying back your credit card debt?” Only to hear the next commercial for the latest and greatest gadget, “only 14.95 for two, really this is a tremendous deal! Buy now!”
I think I have enough food in the house to last me for awhile, so here’s to vowing to buying nothing for the next full week (except for petro for the car).
DDF Skin Regimen & Better Diet/Nutrition
1 month ago
My skin is acne and oily prone. I’ve tried Acutane, Proactiv, Retin-A, Clyndimacin, and various other products…some have worked for awhile, but I don’t stick to it long term. So, I am going to try a new OTC product from Sephora in a trial size. I’ve heard good things about this product. At the beginning, it seems that my face will actually get worse before it gets better, since it can take up to seven days for acne to surface from below the skin. We shall see. I have hope that there is something better than this continuous acne caused by stress.
My goals are the following:
My goals are the following:
- Cut out any food items that contain sugar or fructose corn syrup as one of the ingredients out of my diet.
- Commit to not “picking” at my face, even when I am stressed.
- Consume 3 servings of fruit or veggies per day.
- Hydrate with at least 4 full glasses of water per day.
- Follow the regimen of my new skin product faithfully for the next two months, with a subsequent re-evaluation and documentation of results.
Wish me luck in this endeavor. Peace out.
