I’m trying to stop…

Between 5-22, I know that I was too skinny and so always wanted to put on weight.

23-26, I put on like 20 lbs and a stomach… then I looked at my skinny past self and wish that I was skinny again.

I realised that I need to stop nitpicking and start enjoying how body and how I look. Be proud of who I am or else I’ll always be trying to reach for what I’m not, then when I get there, realising that how I look before wasn’t too bad after all.

RetroChick – it’s true! Everyone has stretch marks somewhere. I knew I had some before, I think what made me so upset was finding out I had more that I didn’t know about, haha.

DreamSequins – oh you should DEFINITELY embrace that Matt gets unhappy if my bum starts to get smaller…LOL. Just think, D, I have a friend who complains a lot because she wishes she had more junk in the trunk! The grass is always greener, yada yada.

Michelle- this was so well written and I think we all can relate to this. I’m particularly ashamed of my disproportionately large junk in the trunk. My bum. I’m always covering it up instead of celebrating my J-Lo-ness.

I think I’m starting to learn that no one else notices, though I can still be hard on particular tiny things, like marks on my legs.

Stretch marks where a thing for me once, I no longer care D

Jaka – the thing I find most interesting about our flaws is that a lot of the time, nobody else even notices them! I’m sure the asymmetrical love handles fall under that category. <3

I use to hate my cheeks and always thought no matter if I lost weight my face would always make me look fat but after a while I just told myself to stop caring and that it was ok, hey if it made people ask me how old I was when I ordered a drink then I guess having a chubby face that mad me look young was ok

Thanks for sharing this, dollface(legs)! My personal hangup – no matter how comfortable I am with my body and self as a whole – is that when I get down to a certain weight, one of my lovehandles is bigger than the other. For some reason, my left side is still round and sticks out while my right is smoother. I have a SERIOUS geometric (quasiOCD) issue with things being even, so it’s a huge deal for me. It seriously causes me to panic and it definitely impacts my clothing choices. It can ruin my whole day. I’m trying to learn to love it, but I just wish they were even! I don’t care how – the skinny side could be fat again, that would be incredibly great.
