1 full day...

Well I have gone one full day without picking. I just made a small poster and put it up on my picking mirror. It reads... I AM NOT PERFECT BUT I AM WORTHY! Everytime I have wanted to pick (several times today) I have said these 8 words to myself. Now if I go to the mirror I will have to read them...

Way to go, Bliss! I wish I could say the same. I like your technique, I think I will try making a small sign for my mirror, too. My goal is to NOT pick for an entire day.

Thank you Mom2Eve! Today is another day, but I have already taken a shower and did my hair and makeup....and didn't pick. I really hope I can get through today without messing with my face :) It's a little bumpy from where the skin is trying to heal. This is always my hardest time....I know it looks gross and I just want it to be flat and smooth. I know picking is not going to do that. I'm off to work....I don't pick there, so I should be good for at least a few hours....as long as I keep my fingers off my face while driving to work. aggg
