For me personally, this might not be for you take what you like and leave the rest, but a comfort day more aligns with what I'm trying to do to succeed health wise on my journey, which is my mental health is important, and there's days when I just need to kind of stay within the boundaries of my program, but give myself more leeway so that I can love myself, take care of myself, comfort myself and have that cushion built in, because that's something I'm not good at.
