On the first day of Be-yoooo-tee I gave myself to meeeeee….

I know I’m only four days in, but trust me. I’ve broken more vows in the first 48 hours than after 72. I’m in it to win it!
Monday: I did not eat an entire giant slice of cake at The Palm… I restricted myself to about a quarter of the serving. Yes, this counts. Have you tried the chocolate cake at The Palm? It’s the kind of thing for which you give up all other courses.
Tuesday: Managed to work in resistance training and an hour of cardio.
Wednesday: Gave myself a manicure with one of the bajillion pricey polishes that have languished in my medicine cabinet the last six months.
Thursday: I wore a dress to work, which drew compliments from everyone. Everyone. (Does this mean I am the office slacker? I mean, when everyone is all, “Ooh, a dress! You look nice!” that means no one expects much, doesn’t it?) Another hour of cardio, plus my cavity filling and a bonus Invisalign consultation. Oral hygiene is sexay!
Friday, I’m anticipating more resistance training, more cardio, and a good night’s rest.
In other news, that cavity I had filled was nothin’! I was expecting agony and terror! Instead I spent more time waiting for the anaesthetic to kick in than the dentist spent on drilling. In fact, once the actual business of the drill and fill began, it only took about 10 minutes. Easy peasy!
Not that I want another cavity. Hell no! Brush and floss twice a day, kids, just like Auntie Sid.
Imma join you on this beauty kick. I’ve been slacking (uh, neglecting myself) for some time. You’ve inspired me to get busy.
Awesome about the cardio. I am interested in looking into invisalign but the price kinda scares me. And the dentist part.
I’m joining in the pretty…gots me a haircut, a color, shaved, even tweezed! All in two days!
