Food, Tummy, Images, good lawd it can really make you go crazy!
I am an actor and as you can imagine I'm in the limelight and gotta look good because you never know who is going to see you. I love to get dolled up. Wearing the largest earrings I can find with a slinky imitation gold or silver necklace that accentuates my breasts. Bringing everyone's attention's not just to my chest but to the fabulousness I have created for my outfit.
But it takes work, don't be fooled. I think all women feel this way at one point or another. And please do not act like you don't look twice in the mirror before you walk out the door. Thinking about the lane of Oreos you had the night before and the attempt to work it off with 30mins on the elliptical this morning.
We wear clothes to be decent and cover the nether regions that are not appropriate to show off in public. Although some are able to get away with it. Hmmph! Some. Why cant it be all? I want to show off my torso and my caramel back. So guess what? I do.
I am a size 7/8 moving to a size 9 and ain't trying to fix it. Ladies, I want to eat my chips, my gooey chocolate chunk cookies, and my rum w/ pineapple juice. I want to live. When it hits summer I, also, want to bust out my Danity Kane lookin' gold and white bikini with my lovely pregnant sized tummy. I want to not have the urge to suck in because I see Barbi and Ken walking by. As May and my stomach rolls along, you had bet your bottom dollar I am training my mind now to practice what i preach. Eat what I want, stay active, but don't hate my body in the process. Instead celebrate and live with it. You wanna join??? Smooches and Peace with Kisses and Hugs.

ReplyDeleteThanks sista for your comment!!! Single Ladies Tonight fo sho!
ReplyDeletehahaha... funny, this is the first year in forever that I havent been going going going 12-15 hours/day driving myself crazy.
ReplyDeleteDuring those times I would be burning soo much energy and often forgetting to eat... i would go to family functions and when my family would comment on my weight I would say "don't worry, its the stress diet... its allll coming back someday".
And the day has come.
I am not a large person, and I generally tend to feel all right at any weight between 130-145. But I h can't say that the snuggness of some of my summer clothes didnt make me lose my breath for a second.
BUT on the other hand, I dont know for sure, because I don't own a scale and don't plan on buying one. And I would much rather be painting or playing my guitar or reading or talking with a friend than killing myself working on one or two or three too many projects.
The treadmill will always be there. Right now I'm working on gaining.
What a great way to look at things. Hunny you are just livin' and lovin' what life throws at you. Do it girl!
