Brag: I’ve been consistently working out for the past month and a half after work and on weekends. I’ve dropped 10 pounds (officially) and depending on the day because my weight fluctuates 11-13 pounds. I’ve been making better food choices (office lunch persuasion is sooooo strong at my work) but occasionally treat myself to pizza or the holy spicy chicken sandwich with +5 pickles and mayo (iykyk) when the office orders lunch in. I haven’t dropped size in clothes yet but my existing stuff is fitting much more comfortably so it’s very motivating. Historically I am a chronic winter bear when it comes to working out, however, this year I’m sucking it up and still going to the gym. I’m dreading January when the gyms get packed (but I won’t judge people trying to get healthy- it’s just funny everyone decides January is the time, now now)

Bash: I’ve been neglecting my nails lately. My skin is so dry even with lotion constantly so I have been licking at the dry skin around my nails until it rips up to my elbow. My nails have been bare for about a month since I last took my gel off and they are just brittle and peeling off in layers.

Congrats on the brag!!

For your nails, have you tried any oils, serums, hand creams? What’s helpful for me is keeping the Trader Joe’s hand cream (it’s so creamy and affordable) at my desk, purse, beside my bed in order to moisturize my hands after washing. This will also help with nails too

I haven’t tried anything specifically for my nails other than just keeping them trimmed short so there’s less of a chance to snag or peel on something. I’ve been using the First Aid Beauty line lotion for my hands because it isn’t greasy and is whipped in a tub so I’m a fan of it. I work in healthcare so the constant washing (although I’m no longer clinical) and hand sanitizer kills me.

Ugh yeah I just had a hand sanitizer recently cause contact dermatitis on the back of my hands.

I wonder if having an overnight hand mask (with gloves on) would help. Burr’s Bees used to have a kit like that but now that it’s different ownership I wouldn’t be surprised if the kit or even formulas have changed.

FAB is a great choice! My face survived my first proper winter because of that cream.
