Failing at weightloss

Hello ALL!

      I am posting this a little late because I had set a goal to be 200 pounds or less by the end of the month. I FAILED, not only did a fail but I gained a pound. At first I was getting down on myself, and I wanted to give up...it was in that moment while I was eating some cookies with frosting that I realized I did not really TRY. I did go to the gym a few times and I was doing ok. However late at night I would get into the candy and sweets.So instead of giving up I made a promise with myself. I want and need to be healthy for my children but mostly myself. I want to feel better. I need to feel better. I often eat out of boredom or when I am said. So my goal for May is to be down to 190 pounds, which I think is alot considering I failed my April goal. So I decided I wanted to just be under 200 pounds. I plan on taking the following steps to subside my endless nightly eating I tend to do.
1. I have made a list of things "to do" when I am feeling like eating.
2. Practice mindful eating and ask myself if I am hungry
3. Have healthy snack options for myself and have them ready.
4. Keep my schedule workouts

That is all! I do not think failure is a bad thing. Sometimes it lights a fire under our ass so that we can get to our goals. So I am going to work harder. Not for anyone but for myself.

XOXO
Samantha

Drug Store Foundations

                           THE BATTLE OF THE FINDING THE PERFECT FOUNDATION So for some odd reason I got it in my head that in the middle of winter with my skin being dry, flaky and breaking out would be the PERFECT time to try new foundations! So I grabbed my coupons and shopped at my local Walgreens and Rite Aid. Walking through the makeup section can be overbearing because there are so many different kinds of foundations on the market. You have full coverage, ageless, photo finish it can be a little annoying honestly. Over the last month or so I tried six different foundations which can all be found at your local drug store. Before we move on I should say that I don't like a luminous finish. I like my foundation and face to be overall matte. My skin right now is dry from it being winter but I also at times can look like I have an oil slick on my face. Each foundation I did use the Two Faced Hangover Primer. ...
