I have been contacted a few times about my pictures I have on here..Some people had brains others did not..let me copy a few of those comments for you.
"I love that you are a strong woman,shows us we can do just about anything and be feminine." <---Has brains.
"I wonder how you work out yet it noticed in ur pictures your arms are large" <--No brains.
"i feel working out makes a woman look to butch"<---BIG lack of brains.
Mhm. Now most of you are wondering if crazy lady showed up...She didn't. Everyone has an opinion and now Im about to be a fly in your coffee.
That is not fat on my arms my dear readers that is what you call a tricep and yes its a bit bigger then most woman's. My shoulders sit higher then most woman my height and build. But I am not butch nor do I like that term and second I can kick your a$$.
Now I am for healthy eating and habits! I have no game consoles in my house and no tv. I do that so my kids know the outside and being active is the way to go. But let me tell you if I catch my daughter acting like teens do today which more then likely she will,I will be stationed at fort Crazy lady until I get it through her head what real beauty is.
Teens today are so worried about being fat its disgusting. I won't allow that around my daughter for as long as I can protect her. I don't want her skipping meals or eating candy for meals. I don't want to hear her at age 10 or 11 or 12 that shes fat.
She does not need to be hit on or get attention to know shes beautiful.
This is how my house hold works. I work out to be strong and if I lose the baby fat from my daughter I had 5 years ago....then awesome. I am a size 7-9. Not a 1...I'm cool with that. I will not be stopping my eating anytime soon. I will not be skipping meals and pretending I am not hungry any time soon. You can eat your salad. I'll take the steak and taters any day my dear.
Look, I could eat a water cress salad and go out and get hit by a bus....I live once. I am healthy. I might not eat the greatest things but I feel good,I have energy, I am not tired,I know what vitamins,minerals and sources my body needs. We eat no pork. We have a veggie almost 3 times a day. We drink our milk. Fresh fruit is a must. Iron,calcium,potassium are all considered into what I feed my family. I don't buy very many if any some months,sweets. We do not eat candy here. Except special occasions of course. Processed food is a don't. Red dye 40 is avoiding. We take vitamins. We drink OJ by the gallons during cold season. lol. And we are active. Best thing is because I don't stress over diets and dieting I have not gained weight in 3 years,I crave salads like crazy because no one has instilled in me that I MUST eat them. My kids don't see me stress,they don't think they have to be perfect and to them me working out is their mama being strong and independent. I'm OK with that.
I know some people have to diet and excersise to regain their healthy status. Thats fine. Your kids seeing that is normal. They will understand. And hopefully you make them understand its for your health not for a man/woman/media..etc.
Please though remember to be a parent. Don't allow or at-least try to keep your kids from saying they are fat. Pre teens and teens don't need to even think that. Watch what they say on FB,in your living room or anywhere. Make sure you don't just laugh it off,say something to them. I do with my daughter and she is 4.
And remember to be a human. If your into exercise and perfect eating then awesome. But if your that person that does it to be "sexier then the other woman" or "so he will keep loving you"... "Make sure your wanted by men"...if your doing it the un safe way? Then your wasting your life and if I meet you I will be the fly in your coffee because I will tell you off. I won't allow you near my kids.
My size 9 butt and my bigger then normal biceps and triceps will go on and eat our pasta and drink our coffee and be fine with who we are. I love me and I have a man that does too not that I need him too ;-) My confidence is when I look in the mirror and feel healthy not skinny. Not perfect. But me.
Now excuse me while I box the calories right off me and keep these arms fit.
*Please remember I won't judge you no matter what but society does enough to destroy what woman are really worth. What REAL woman look like. Lets not contribute to it. *
