The bag-o-flesh

Dealing with postpartum body is not easy... The few parts of your body you used to like, are suddenly gone, or even worst, are like an empty bag-o-flesh :-(

Your belly is huge, your boobs sag, your ass is huge... Not to mention your arms, thighs, hips, and sometimes face.

As you know, I've been dealing with my weight issue for almost a decade, and now I finally decided to do something about it. I have to say that the chicken soup diet and the hitting and slapping and banging and torturing method have had a positive result, because I've lost about 7 pounds and a few inches.
Although I still have many pounds to go, I do feel better. At least getting dressed in the morning is getting to be fun again.

Today I found the best remedy for not feeling like an empty fat suit. Taking your baby with you when you take a shower has a whole new meaning! Every time you look in the mirror and think that your best assets are gone, look behind you and see why your body is like this now.
Just take a look at your baby in the mirror and remember why you went through all of this!

So this would be the timeline:


 Me at 18


Me at 30 (before pregnancy)


Hahaha... I wish!!! This is more like it

The awful truth!! Present time :S

So that my friends is reality. And as we know, reality bites! Let's just hope I can get to look somewhat like the first pic!!! If I fail, I can always make my hair pink again =D
