i think we need more

so list 5 things you hate (or hated when you were fat) about being FAT and 5 things you LOVED while you were thin (or thinner than you are now)


i HATE FAT:

1) red/sore from thighs rubbing together
2) feeling very self concious (hating to leave my house)
3) could only wear sweatpants or i was uncomfortable
4) out of breath easily, tired easily
5) strangers never looked at me twice

what i Loved about being THIN:
1) could wear cute clothes, and the adorable polka dot bikini i once owned
2) guys whistled at me when i walked by
3) more energy to do things i enjoyed
4) took more pride in my appearence (wearing makeup for example)
5) was much happier

This is great cause I am having troubles trying to get into the groove of things again. During the week I am great and then the weekend comes and it's over, I am back where I started.

Things I hate about being FAT:
1.) Being tired ALL the time
2.) No energy to play ALL day
3.) Full wardrobe I can't wear
4.) Not feeling like I look attractive
5.) How my body feels when I run or jump, (the chubbies)

Love being thinner:
1.) My house was cleaner
2.) I could play all day
3.) Felt better about myself and dressed nice EVERYDAY
4.) Feel great being naked and no covering up
5.) Had a lot of confidence (especially when people would say you have had a child? no way!....hehe I loved that!!!)

I guess everyone has a basic love of what they were like and how much better they feel about themselves being thinner. Not even thin just healthier. I have 2 small children and I have a really hard time keeping up with them everyday. Today we all took a nap together. There wasn't a reason I was just tired. So sad.

This can be motivating, but I think we also should do a What I love about myself NOW section. So we are carring some extra weight, that doesn't mean we don't have lots to offer.

what I love about myself...
1) I am a good mom
2) I am a good wife
3) I love to help others in need
4) I am a good listener
5) I have a good scence of humor
