5. The spare tire around my middle!

4. Wide hips and thighs that are flabby (you know, the dimpled fat! Yuck!!!)

3. Lumpy/ Bumpy back fat. I am looking forward to buying cute bras that don't need steel reinforcement, especially on the sides!!!

2. Avoiding gatherings because I feel bad about myself

1. Hating shopping!!

And I could go on and on!!

#5 Having to try on several outfit combinations b4 I find a shirt and jeans that doesn't show my belly roll
#4 Hiding my naked body from my husband b/c I don't want him to see my fat (as if he doesn't know it's there! LOL I'm getting better about it already)
#3 Getting on the scale every single day to see if I'm under 200lbs yet!
#2 Being the fat friend (lucky 4 me, I'm now not the FATTEST friend hehe)
#1 Sucking in my stomache for hours in public in order to look "skinny"
#0 (hehe) Staring at myself in the mirror at the bar while I make sure all my lumps are covered and that my stomache is sufficiently sucked in! lol

Enjoyed these! Some funny :laugh: , and some touching! :flowerforyou:

GTO_Judge - since when did we qualify to be called Ma'am? Happened to me again yesterday... is that because of our age, our appearance, or because we are lugging kiddies around??? :grumble:

I also hate the "Ma'am" thing too! What's up with that? It must be the Mommy thing...

Down here in GA it's considered polite but it just makes me feel old. :grumble:

5. Having a panic attack when someone wants to take my picture.

4. Being referred to as the "BIG blonde!!!"

3. The way my stomach folds over my underwear, and then makes them roll underneath my roll.

2. My "cute" bathing suit with the skirt.

and number 1 on my list of things I will not miss when I reach my goal.......

How boring my sex life has become:sad:

Yeah, what is with that? I swear that I was "miss" and then popped out a baby, and suddenly got "ma'am"... on a related note, I am trying to take more time on my own appearance - shopping for new clothes, little more make up, doing my hair, and accessorizing, as I was falling into the "mommy rut". I think we moms deserve some time spent on ourselves! It makes a world of difference for me!

Same here on the mommy time, I was doing good for awhile. I would take a shower during Taylor's morning nap and fix my hair and makeup...lately I've been watching tv during her morning nap lol and slapping in a headband to keep my hair off my face. It's not a great look.

Haha! Who can argue with a good tv show in peace! All I can watch when the kids are awake is Dora, Wonder Pets, and Backyardigans... :noway:

I still wear a track suit around the house, and clip my hair up during the day!!! Just trying ot make myself more presentable to the public!
