I Sure Talk A Lot of Smack About Myself {originally posted Wednesday, June 9, 2010}

I haven't had to buy bigger "fat pants" since September.
My calves are smokin hot,


I surround myself with people who encourage me.


I must admit my hormonal feelings are killing me this week. so I decided to talk about things I like about my body, and why I have such a decent body image. yes I have my weak weeks, but at the end of the day I am me, and what's the use wishing I was someone else? I like my hair. it's not long and luxurious, it's short. when I keep up with hair cuts it's spunky and fun. I box dye it myself but I want to steer away from that since I nuked it red in April and it still hasn't faded at all but the roots are lovely :
I LOOOVVEE short hair. it's fast and easy and I’m never too worried over having a "bad haircut" because it's just hair and it'll grow back. the shorter the do, the less you're attached it's kind of nice.


My eyes are another feature I enjoy on my face. they're hazel, but when I wear purple they look greener. I actually wear purple glasses that I thoroughly adore. I have discovered the wonders of wearing no make up sometimes in public. I figured why not go naked face while I can right! but I do love getting dressed up and playing up my fantastic eye lashes.


I may be the heaviest I’ve ever been in my life, but I have never felt more beautiful. this I owe a lot to my best friend, who is also my wonderful boyfriend. I see myself as curvy, not FAT. such a nasty word. I pride myself my ability to dress myself to disguise my flaws. I have love handles people! I just don't stuff myself like a sausage into my clothes. I also have a gaggle of gals who I’ve been close to since high school who have good ideas of body image. I know people who are obsessed with loosing weight that they make other people feel guilty for their choices. I would rather have encouragement over having my nose rubbed in the fact that I enjoy junk food every once in a while. I’m not the kind of person to completely eliminate multiple food groups from my diet. I enjoy eating too much to say good bye forever.


I’ve said it once...I’m going to say it again! my calves are smokin hot! hahaha! I enjoy their shape and size and the lines the shadows of my muscles create. OHH yeah! I haven't bought a pair of bigger "fat pants" since September! that means I’m not gaining more weight. Which is wonderful. for a while I felt like I was always gaining weight...nothing is worse than buying fat pants...no matter what stage. I have a super cure pair of jeans I want to feel less like a sausage in so that's my goal. setting reasonable goals are goals I can achieve. don't come on right out and say "I want to lose 30 pounds" because that's just daunting.
nom! nom! nom!
