There is another thread here somewhere for plus sized mamas but haven't seen a post in a while.
I hear ya' though. I just recently in the past year reconciled with myself and my body. I refuse to go through life with the "when I am thinner I will do..." mentality. I will waste my whole life not experiencing things if I continue to think that way.
I love my body more today at it's larger size than I ever have. I have 2 wonderul miracles that helped to make my body this way and I would not trade them for the world to have my pre-baby body back. I just look at it as an exchange and I think I got the better part of the bargain.
I am 5 foot 5 inches and weigh 180 pounds. I am fit and I work out and excercise. I eat mostly organics and rarely eat at fast food places. So, for me this is just me. I will not worry if I gain a pound and I will not celebrate when I lose one. I am giving up the strife of our perception of "perfection" and just being me.
I do not look like those girls on the billboard and I am okay with that...Somehow I wonder if 'they' even look like those girls on the billboard.
