Three weeks today

I treated myself to a led lamp with gel polish while using it as a way to make myself stop biting my nails. I have been giving myself weekly manicures and for some reason, after 25 years of biting my nails, it’s working. I keep them flat because i want to bite them when they’re not flat. Sometimes I notice myself start biting along the edges but I bought a Czech glass nail file and stop and file them. To celebrate my progress, I gave myself a regular polish manicure with this deep red. For the first time ever it looks like I have normal nails!

funeral today

We had a funeral for my grandfather today. I didn’t have a close relationship with him, but meeting with our family and remembering previous funerals we’ve attended together over the years, I kinda just feel like life is a hamster wheel. Life is hard. I want to get off the hamster wheel. Don’t feel suicidal or anything, but I wish there was a stop button ya know?

I also had a really weird stress dream last night and I’m still stressed from it and procrastinating sleep tonight because of it

Feeling healthy

One of the least talked about benefits from CICO is how good your body feels without over eating and eating healthier foods.
I realized I never think about it but the weight of guilt and physical heaviness of overeating makes a huge impact on overall well being- so if anyone needed encouragement, just remember, you’re doing this for more than just a goal weight, you’re also respecting your body and overall sense of wellness.

Wrist strap keychains at Shady Maple

I found these wrist strap keychains at Shady Maple gift shop - the one inside the grocery store- for half the cost they’re being sold at Target. They had a whole section of products from the same brand including crossbody sling bags, and wallets

How do you handle overeating?

Today I had leftovers from hosting friends for dinner - cheesy pasta. And then I went out to trivia with friends. I wasn’t really planning on getting food, but everyone else had these huge burgers and flatbreads, so I decided to get the soft pretzel app (with beer cheese and honey mustard). First of all, I know that it should be as simple as math, but I struggle to have the self control when the oppurtunity to eat high calorie food is this accessible and justifiable. I feel bad that I ate about 1000 over my goal. What are ways that you encourage yourself to not feel guilty but also avoid making these choices to begin with?

Recertifying NASM PT- what’s real?

I feel like NASM is just a big scam. My personal trainer cert expired in December. Around that time I got an email with a “deal” to recertify. Never did- now my cert has been expired for 6 months and I emailed the contact from December. He said I can recertify for the next four years for ~$350. Now he’s been calling me and leaving messages about how my grace period is overdue and so I should act now, basically.

It’s so sales-pitchy and I just need to know what’s real- what are my actual options and what is the policy. It seems like they just want money so it doesn’t really matter when I renew. I just don’t want to have to pay more than I should.

ASC Engineered Solutions (Columbia)

Heads up: ASC Engineered Solutions in Columbia reports an EPA RSEI score around 3,000 (down from ~17,000 in 2013) vs a county median ~70.
Reported TRI releases include lead, manganese, zinc compounds, and diisocyanates, entering groundwater, Shawnee Run/Susquehanna.
Relative to other school districts, Columbia borough is a smaller, lower-income community.
Given the elevated relative risk and setting, this may warrant closer DEP Environmental Justice review and more local water monitoring.

Can I fix the fabric?

My roommate used my dog brush on my couch and now it looks like this. I tried steaming it… no change. Anyone know if there’s a solution for this?

Why do my hair follicles hurt when I move my hair?

When I massage my head, move my hair, or put my hair up in a bun my hair hurts! I don’t understand why. I tried to massage my scalp more so that the follicles would get used to the movement. Does this happen to anyone else?
