    Just getting caught up reading as I’ve been off since the Friday before Christmas. I go back to work tomorrow 🙁 I’m not really ready.

    @Copa – good luck with the Whole30! I’m considering doing that again after we celebrate my daughters birthday at the end of the month. But I’m not going to be as restrictive as I love oatmeal and cannot eat eggs everyday – just can’t do it (tried last time and failed miserably).

    As for eye cream, I’ve been using IT eye cream and I like the feel of it. Don’t know if it really does anything for my eyes but I really do love the feel. And I’ve only been using it about 2 weeks. I mostly have eye bags really bad in the morning. And some wrinkles.

    @Kate that was a great Buzzfeed article. I liked how she felt those mink lashes were more natural than the synthetic. But the mink are **SUPER** expensive looking at the post. Gives me more to think about. I like how the mink fell off compared to the synthetic.

    I just saw the additional article on the 3D mascara. It is a Yonique product, a MLM item. I’m finishing out my Mary Kay face lotion and then I’m done buying any MLM products. Sad that it rules that out.

    My cousin tried to get me to buy some $130 mascara from Ulta. No thanks,

    I thought I spent a good amount on mascara but there is a $130 option?? It better stay on and look good for a whole week! Oh and somehow sanitize itself so I don’t have to toss it every three months like normal.

    It is rainy here today so no run. Grr. Did anyone watch the 90 Day Fiance last night. I got husband sucked in when the season began. We actually were so bummed it ended when it did since we want to see the rest play out.

    Son comes home tonight. I have a sinking feeling his flight, which already is arriving at 9:30pm will be delayed seeing this awful weather today. Hope not for his sake, and ours since it’ll keep us up late. (He stays up late anyway but I am an old lady who falls asleep by 10).

    @JD OMG I’m a 90 Day fan. I’m losing interest because this season was just so awful. The people were all so bad.

    The chick from Indonesia (Leida) is the worst person. Steven is an emotional abuser. 2 married people well under the age of what should have been married (Johnathan and Ashley). One just stirs ALLLLL the drama (Kalani). And Colt and Larissa are in such a toxic relationship.

    I’m not sure I’ll watch another season. I want to see the tell all again next week for the finale. Then, I might be done with it. Which makes me sad. I liked seeing real couples who were stable and had the traditional struggles of someone moving over.

    When people say 90 days isn’t enough, I completely agree. FMH and I were long distance for 11 months. He moved over here, and he moved in right away. I was a 90 day fan then. I thought to myself “Could I marry him in 90 days?” (Obviously that wasn’t an option for us, it wasn’t necessary) and while we had 11 months of getting to know each other, we didn’t KNOW each other until we lived together. And I struggled a LOT with living together, taming my wild single ways (spending hours at the gym) and making him a priority. If I had to do it on 90 days, I probably would have sent him back.

    Colt and Larissa are just, the worst. They make the other train wrecks look good. When Stephen and Leida are shaking their heads at you, you know you have issues. Stephen is just nuts. My husband was nearly screaming at him on the tv throughout the season. There’s immature and there is emotionally abusive. He is both. I heard Johnathan and Fernanda broke up just before NYE. I was kind of bummed about that. She was a bit immature, but I mean, she is 19 so of course she is going to be immature. Also, they are just a gorgeous couple. I do think Eric was a bit misleading to Leida. He said he intentionally didn’t tell him about his crap living situation. I can understand her not being happy. Now how she handled it is not ok. I was surprised because it seems she could have come to the US to further her medical career without marrying him. I read she was actually licensed to practice in her country and Canada. It seems that was her motivation for being with him but with her education and family money one would think she could find another way.

    I also watched the first new episode of Married at First Sight the other night. The one guy, I can’t remember his name (the annoying one, that’s identifying enough) is just, I can see him being a disaster.

    @JD over on reddit they’ve done a ton of sleuthing on Ledia and have found no medical practice she was at. She did the school, but not the clinical. I dislike her the most.

    I didn’t know that. I read something the network releases regarding her medical degree.

    I’m on day 7 of Whole30 and feeling good! Well, feeling kinda lethargic, but I attribute that more to still feeling under the weather. Thursday & Friday were fairly miserable, but I cannot shake this cold, even after a couple solid nights of sleep this weekend, which is bumming me out cause I wanna hit the gym to get the full benefit of my diet.


    @Rangerchic
    I can do eggs daily only if I vary how I eat them. I like eggs, but they do get boring. Today was a scramble with chicken sausage, some veggies, and avocado. Tomorrow will be fried with breakfast potatoes and pork belly.

    The only way I can do eggs lately is with tons of veggies. I like mushrooms, peppers, spinach. For the past few years I don’t dislike eggs but just little desire to eat them.

    Kate, remind me what serum with retinol you recommend/use for your face?
