What a week! I don't like being sick, but I'm feeling much better now, certainly better than being sick on the weekend don't you think? Can't wait for the weekend to start!
Yesterday I treated myself to a few spa services, one new one in particular that I LOVE, shellac polish!!! Ever tried it? It's a combination of gel and polish and stays on for weeks. When I was a single gal I always had my nails done. As long as I can afford it it, I think I need to start treating my self to pretty nails on a regular basis! I may even use it as a tool for weight loss, "I'm not treating myself to birthday cake, but I will get a rockin' mani." Not to mention my manicurist is so cute & fun, she makes me feel young again.
I never realized how much thyroid function affects healthy nails, because after a thyroidectomy my nails had deep ridges. Medicine can't replace an organ! Even pretty nails, as superficial as that sounds, made my day, making me feel happy and pretty all over. I think my reasoning with my husband may sound something like this, "see how much happier I am now. And just think it's really not costing any extra because we're saving money at the grocery store not buying so much junk food." Think that it'll work?

Do you find non-food related treats help with weight loss?
Do you have a favorite fall nail polish?
