They suckered me with a deal to buy one of their new bread foods (or whatever they're called) for an extra 10 points which means free pizza next order so I splurged tonight.
I clearly need to do more stuff like this for myself. I get angry at myself when I purchase a $2 energy drink let alone $14 worth of pizza because I hate wasting money. I justify it though because I've been doing well, but I have been dealing with depression as well and it's been a struggle for me to keep my confidence up the way it has been without feeling like I want to cry or scream.
I guess I will fake it until I make it  |
I'm glad to hear you DID reward yourself. It gives one a bit of an extra "push", and helps one feel a bit better about both yourself n life in general, I found when I was doing it. I hope you will continue doing this and find the same thing true for you! It's also awesome that now next time you don't have to pay for your pizza, so you can use that as a general "pick me up" if needed too.
Don't be afraid to allow yourself little enjoyments in life. You deserve to have some nice things too!
*hugs*
So very happy for you.
