"With time, women gain weight because we accumulate so much information & wisdom in our heads that when there is no more room, it distributes out to the rest of our bodies. So we aren't heavy , we are enormously cultured, educated & happy. Beginning today, when I look at my butt in the mirror I will think, Good Grief...look how smart I am..."
I have no clue who wrote this, but I stole it from a friend's facebook status and it is now my own personal motto. I feel like eight million times a day I am comparing myself, feeling bad about myself, and all out chastising myself about my weight and/or how I look that day. I do not want this to be the example for my daughter. A lot of women say they feel badly about how they look after giving birth. I can honestly say, while it didn't help, I felt this way before. Therefore, that can't really be the excuse.
So, I am going to embrace this hysterically perfect nugget of wisdom because at the end of the day my husband thinks I'm hot, and he's the only one that matters anyway. :-)
Can I hear an "AMEN SISTER!"
