I agree! I just noticed looking at the baby/pregnancy mags-how they only show models who are skinny or have that perfect little tummy w/out stretchmarks! I don’t know anyone who has looked that way during pregnancy-how is that different from the fashion magazines that show the skinny models with the clothes no one can afford to wear because of size and prize anyway. I’m all for eating healthy and exercising but there are too many factors affecting even those decisions-natural healthy foods are soo expensive. We all just do the best we can-let’s keep our feet on the ground and pass this on to our daughters and other young women we influence (I’m a teacher, I know I influence at least 20 kids each year)-lets educate them to be proud of being real women and to learn to love what GOD gave them.

Amen sister! I for one look at what a remarkable job my body has just done and the amazing gift it has just given me and all I feel is gratitude. Yes I would love to be slim again maybe a little less hip and a lot less boob…. but I wouldn’t trade it for the little one that I thank God for every day. I also have lost several and the one I have is well worth every extra inch! ( because though I have lost the weight… I don’t really recognize my new bod yet LOL)
