Beauty Experiment: Day 2

It's the day after derma rolling and my face doesn't itch or burn anymore. PHEW! That's really the only update I have. I should probably take pictures and compare them to pictures I'll take 4 weeks from now. I've read that progress is really slow with this procedure and a series needs to be done for noticeable results. Overall, I'm thrilled that I didn't destroy my face, but I'll update if/when I see results...or if/when I don't.

I would like to mention that I'm not new to beauty experiments. In fact, I've been trying a few things here and there since November. Some have been awful and some have been promising. Someone once told me that I'm too vain and it made me chuckle. I do things to make myself feel better because my self-esteem isn't great, not because I'm anywhere near conceited. Regardless, I don't need to justify myself and that particular person is a jerk anyway. :)

Sunday, I forgot to mention that I had 4 SmartPoints left over from the day. Yesterday, I had 1 SmartPoint left over. Weight Watchers encourages people to use up ALL of their points, but sometimes you just can't. Last night I ended up eating boatloads of tuna salad on Ritz crackers with Tabasco on top and it was deeeeeelish. After that, I snarfed down a pound of strawberries with fat free Reddi-Whip and then I was stuffed like a tick.

So we arrive at today. What, oh what, should I throw down my throat today? I'm thinking spaghetti squash with marinara but I also want some of these meatless "chicken" nuggets I bought. I wonder if it would be gross to mix the two. Yes. The answer is yes, Lindsay. I'm trying to plan my day so that I don't end up with an empty bag of chips in my lap later.

I had a thought early this morning. Dangerous, I know. But anyway, my thought was to go to Barnes & Noble with my spawn to browse the books. You may ask, "WHY?!" and I assure you, that question is all but drowning out the entire idea. I REALLY want to get out of this house, but I can't think of anywhere to go. I have to stay out of the sun for now, and it has to be somewhere my kid won't drive me insane. This is a tall order. Let's just take a nap instead.
