Rossetti, not Reubens

First, I want to say I do think that people who want to be super fit are awesome and more power to you....but I don't want to be hard or ripped or anything like that. I want to be fit and strong, but I'm perfectly content still being a bit round.

Maybe I'm weird, but my motivation is by my favorite sort of paintings. I like pre-Raphaelites, and I've been compared to these ladies before, though after having a baby, quitting smoking and getting lazy, I have not been quite so cute anymore.


I'm down 15 lbs since Jan 30th, so I'm feeling good. These are the bodies that motivate me...not fitness models. Anyone else with me?

I think the woman in the painting is very pretty, so you should feel blessed that people have compared you to her.

I LOVE the pre-Raphaelites! I've been compared to them too, so I definitely get where you're coming from
