OOoooh guess what I did today??
(oh you dirty minded lot, no not that my hubby not back till wednesday remember!!)
Well, in anticipation of our ahem, reunion on wednesday I went to Ann Summers and bought myself some nice undies! Not something I've favoured recently, but my scales are showing me I am 2 stone lighter than I was in January 2006 (lost a little before starting diet) and I really do feel I look better. I also bought something else
just for fun as well, but I'm not as brave as the others who have brought it up lmao *blushing* tee hee. (mine is the little pocket pleaser as opposed to any rabbits.... whatever they are)
Tried the undies on when I got home and felt good about how I looked, sure I've got a way to go yet, but I certainly have come a long way (pardon the pun- sorry)
I have decided I am going to have to get used to the slightly droopy, stripey belly as I'm not convinced even exercise is going to help it out to any great degree, however its all about how we feel isn't it?
I'm making a choice to feel good regardless of the extra bits!
Theres a lot of nice undies out there if you look, the stuff I chose today covers most of my tum anyway.
The stripey belly is due to my rather fabulous daughter so I don't mind too much and to be fair my husband has never been worried so I am thinking the time has come for me to stop worrying too. Lifes too short. We can only make the best of ourselves, we can't turn into supermodels, and regardless of what we think about men they don't want us to either.
I've had so much fun reading this thread and I have to admit have become braver due to others honesty, thanks you lot!
