You spent Christmas justifying all the "presents to yourself."
You waaaaay overspent on those gifts that were "just perfect" for your girlfriends.
You just had to sample each and every item on the buffet at the company party - it was a top-of-the-line caterer, after all, and well, it's your job to make sure it's perfect.
In other words, Excess, Thy Name is DC Fashionista.
Now you're back at the gym (there just wasn't time during the busy holiday season), you've cut all pasta (except for the occasional whole wheat version - let's not be hasty, here) out of your diet, and you're back to drinking 8 glasses of agua a day.
But you're still feeling shallow and self-indulgent.
So mark your calendar. I have the perfect solution.
