Sara's Self-Image Journey

Had a really good relationship day today. I was able to express some things that had gone right, and some things that have bothered me without feeling awkward or embarrassed about saying them. DH and I had some really good connection today, and we even talked about changing sleeping arrangements.

I wanted to write down something that I realized a while ago while talking to a friend and don't want to forget - sometimes you just have to accept someone for who they are, and that also extends to what kind of parent they are.

Thing to write down from my last therapy session that I don't want to forget - maybe having someone ask me question about how I am is part of my love language.

Expanding on that - expecting people to know what I want without me telling them is not realistic. But it is ok to expect them to check up on me and ask me what's wrong.

Physically - tried on all my pants. What an eye-opener. Really need to lose that last 5 pounds! I did manage to declutter about 10 pairs of pants that didn't fit right or were worn. Most of the ones I kept were still tight, but I'm hoping to get those last 5 pounds off soon. I still haven't had a day yet where I've done my hair, but I've been experimenting with makeup and skincare samples. I've actually thrown away things that I don't like. I realized that I have too much makeup and too many skin care items. I've been trying to use up some of the samples and not be afraid to throw away things that I don't like.
