Skin improvement

It’s the dawn of day 17 and I noticed this morning how much my skin has improved already. I was finding myself with sore blemishes on my chest area and also was picking several spots on my legs due to anxiety (created by my drinking) and I was really a mess by the end of 2019. I was happy it was cold here in Florida where we normally wear small amounts of covering clothing year round because I could hide the blemishes under long pants and tops.

Since the anxiety is gone and the self care is way up, the blemishes are cleared up! Some is probably due to toxins of alcohol and nicotine leaving my system.

My face is less puffy, eyes not so dark under, fine lines are improving and the texture and color of my skin is improving. Most of all, those terrible bumps on the upper chest are gone. Those were itchy and ugly!

I’m excited to see what the skin will look like in a few months and in a year. Not consuming toxins certainly is helping! My skin is dry anyway so dehydrating it with copious amounts of wine was certainly not helping!

It’s the little things that make it all worth it. Like when my 16 year old said to me on Saturday night “hey mom you’re not drinking anymore and you look amazing.” The struggles and the challenges all pay off. Small steps and small victories lead to big gains over time!
