I am NOT in the "1%"

edited November 2024 in Chit-Chat
But, I am still posting my pictures. *gives you time to leave thread before you are "offended", "disgusted" or any other complaints you might come up with....*


I have stretchmarks on my belly from having two GORGEOUS kids.
I also have a scar (which you can't see since belly is now hanging over it..) from two c-section surgeries to have my babies
I have cellulite on my thighs.. and booty...
My arms flab and jiggle.
oh, and I DEF don't have a thigh gap (and won't ever have one.. even with these hips...)

But, what I DO have is a work in progress. I have a supportive family and group of friends. I have curves, I have scars, I have marks that will never go away.

    Way to go beautiful!

    I have all sorts of belly scars too. No kids, but lots of other illness. Stretchmarks too. But they all remind me of how hard it's been, and how much I deserve to be healthy and fit!

    And my husband loves my thigh gap. That's all I shall say.......

    Actually... you look better than me and I have 2 c-sections too. I'm still working on it though.

    CONGRATULATIONS on being proud of what you've got! I love it when women are proud of the so-called "damage" that was done to their bodies from having kids.

    Best of luck in making the changes you wanna make! :)

    Lovely in all ways. I have the same baby marks, and that is my favorite part of me. Great work!

    You look GREAT! I am proud of you for having the confidence to post this after having the battle scars of two children. You are on a successful path to becoming an even greater lady.

    I dont refer to them as stretch marks, i call them lines of life!! After my 2 gorgeous kiddies i have stretch marks up to my eyeballs (well, not quite but it feels like it sometimes lol) but then i sit back and think.....what would i prefer, having a nice smooth belly, or having these marks on me that i know came from my 2 kiddies growing and thriving inside my belly for 9 months (well, 7 and a half for my daughter Lol) !!

    You look gorgeous btw, well done you!!!

    I don't think ANYONE would be disgusted or offended by your pictures. You inspire me! And many others! Keep it up girl!

    :flowerforyou: Thank you all

    FTR- I hate my stretchmarks.. but there isn't anything I can do about them. The plus side.. when I get into my goal weight and toned up.. I can wear a REAL bikini and let the sun fade them.. temporarily. :laugh:

    :heart:

    Great job!

    You look a lot like me ;). I've had 2 kids, 1 c-section 1 vbac, and gallbladder surgery. My 'battle scars' are there for a reason! :D

    Streatch marks are horrid! I am covered in them from weight gain due to contraception and pregnancy!!! I'm glad they go down and I'm sure one day when I am walking with my beautiful child on a nice beach I will have the confidence to wear a bikini and sod what anyone says about my scars and giggles!! So good for you I say!! Keep it up!!
  • You are AWESOME!!! :heart: :flowerforyou:

    Battlescars ? I have my fair share too after four kids and I have, for the most part, embraced them ! Many many moms do :)

    I absolutely love your shape , very curvy , very hourglass , very womanly .

    Thanks for posting this !
  • You're doing great!!! I'm full of stretch marks and tons of scars from different surgeries.... big ol' nasty one an inch wide that runs all the way from my upper abdomen to my ... well... low low lower abdomen :o) And when I'm not so flubby, I'll rock my scars just like you!

    What a wonderful, womanly figure! Thanks for the inspiration today: I sometimes forget to find role models for my journey that have also had kids and lived a little! Congrats to you!

    I have stretch marks around my hips and I haven't even had children. Its all from gaining weight. I've had them for years. I have cottage cheese thighs too so I'm not perfect either. All that matters is you making the change. You're on the way!
