My new visualization

[EnviroBecca]

A healthy eggplant am I, shiny and beautiful, soaking up the sun, perfect in my taut roundness.

Sounds silly, but it's working for me! I came up with it yesterday, when I got out of the shower, looked at my profile in the mirror, and suddenly thought, "I can't do this today!" I felt so heavy and overburdened and stretched. But I had to get to work and forced myself to keep moving. As consolation, I put on my favorite, dark purple, very soft maternity outfit, and looking in the mirror again suddenly thought "eggplant". Why, I am just the right shape and texture after all!

EB ~ aw! you're my latest hero! I'm not pg yet, but will no doubt remember this post of your's when my glorious/challenging/anxious/miraculous pg days come to me & dp (gods & goddesses willing). Thats such a cool analogy btw.

Just fyi, these days, when i glance in the mirror sideways, I'm inclined to go grab a towel to stuff under my clothing, just to keep my hopes up! Guess its the the "grass is always greener" thang in action, eh?!

Happy eggplant days to you mama!

Too cute, EB...unfortunately it gave me a nightmarish flashback of the veggietales I am forced to endure every night... :LOL

My partner and I sometimes tell each other stories in bed so yesterday I said, "Once upon a time, there was a sexy eggplant..." He said, "...and a very confused farmer...uh...let's have a different story."
