That unattractive, 'gross' feeling...

Options
For starters, does anyone know the feeling i'm talking about or am I just a crazy person? That feeling that you get when no matter what you wear or what you do with your hair or anything else you do, you just feel unattractive. I'm having one of those days, but I don't know why. I exercised, made a bring pot of homemade veggie soup & had a nice, relaxing Sunday. I guess i'm just having an off day.
Any support or advice would be a God sent,


- Danielle.

    It's normal to have an "off" day like that.I know I have! Try and say something positive to yourself. I know it may sound hokey but its sure better than feeling like crap and the more positive things you say the better you will start to feel.

    lol we all have those days. Just stick to the healthy lifestyle, because it makes for fewer days like this.

    What I do when i'm having a day like that is treat myself, in a non food related way. If you can manage it go shopping, buy fancy underwear, or get a pedi or manicure. When was the last time you got your hair cut? You're doing all this hard work maybe you need to appreciate yourself. Of course, in a lot of ways doing some of these things at home is just as good/way better because you can put your feet up and watch a chick flick while your toe nail polish dries!

    I think it is a common feeling. We all get that way. Mine was yesterday. So I went and had my hair cut different from the usual style. (it was getting old anyway) came home, colored my hair and did my nails. I felt way better.

    Other then that I think of all the positive things I have done for myself health wise and try my best to ignore the lumps, bumps and wrinkles that are being stubborn.
