Feeling Pretty

So most of us have several things still sucking between the last ten pounds, hair loss, breakouts, bleeding, etc... But there has to be stuff making you feel good. So what are some of your favorite exercises/ cosmetics to make you feel good again?
I'm enjoying Pilates focusing on my legs/hips and love cover girls bb cream! Makes me feel a little bit more human.

Re: Feeling Pretty
Can't wait to start lifting heavy squats again and my deadlifts. I am only up to 80lbs on both, but it is a start. I have about 75lbs to go before I get to where I was.
A shower always makes me feel human again. ESPECIALLY if I get to take one with out any interruptions. Nothing worse then the curtain being pulled aside to be asked by a 2 yr old what I am doing. Although cute the first 2 or 3 times it gets old quick.
My go to snack at night is now apple cut up into thin pieces on a plate, then I heat some peanut butter so that it is runny and drizzle that all over the apple. Top with either honey roasted peanuts, a few chocolate chips, raisins, dried cranberries, coconut or a combination of any of the above. SO good and way more healthy then chips or a chocolate bar that I seem to crave all the time.
Putting on a full face of make-up, especially using my Urban Decay eye shadow palette.
Getting a manicure and pedicure.
Also, being able to take my time in the shower without worrying that the baby could start crying at any second. Being able to use a body scrub and take my time shaving, it feels very luxurious now.
Love this
I've also painted my nails and done full pedicures and manicures while he sleeps, plus hot baths several times a week. I make it a priority to feel good and my H helps me out a lot
Also, I got a Lorac tan set and it really perks my face up. Love it!
oooh great idea!
I got my hair done today! First cut and color since march and I feel so much better. Also started my new Jillian michaels 30 day shred today!
Me too! So smart.
I've been trying to make sure I leave the house a few times a week and when I do, I put on makeup and do my hair. Starting last week I've been able to start going to the gym again. I've just been doing Zumba but now that I've been cleared I'm going to start lifting again. I'm excited!!!
