{Sleepless in Suburbia}
I know my body will never spring back to it’s old form, I have the stretch marks to prove it. I’d just like to feel like I look like this again. The laughable part is I actually thought I was fat back then.
How times and perceptions change.

You were beautiful then and you are beautiful NOW!
Happy Mostly Wordless Wednesday
You are beautiful, then and now. As a had a double mastectomy and failed reconstruction – you can read all about it on Monday as I guest over at http://bahtocancer.blogspot.com/ body image is something that is on my mind a lot, infact I have a regular councelling session on a Tuesday to help to accept the body I now have. What I am trying to say without all the waffle is you are lovley!
I realised something recently: if I was thinking I was fat when I was 20 (which I was), and thinking back on it I was actually gorgeous
then this may well happen again, i.e. at 40 I will think I was gorgeous at 32, why was I worried. So I've decided to like me as I am just now. Try it, it's great!
Listen to Mwa she makes so much seance! you never know what you have till its gone! and you really are gorgeous!I'd kill for that hair!:0)xx
I think we all do this – I look at my wedding pics and look so young and fresh faced and not tired!!! Then I look at the boys and realise it's all part of moving on in life. Be proud, not wistful
Sara – Thank you
The Mad House – Thanks for the reality check. I should be grateful and for what I have.
MWA – I do try and accept the me I am. I'd just like to think I can be the me I am now but a couple of dress sizes smaller.
Icklebabe – Thank you. I used to hate mt red hair but as I have got older I have grow to love it.
Hot Cross Mum – I shall try and be proud. Thank you.

I hope you are happier now you're a mum. And don't stress about your weight. I did that for years and I thought I was fat too when I wasn't. Your blog islovely and so are you.
I think you look terrific then and now! I wouldn't stress about it. Getting a body back in shape after pregnancy takes time. I've been working on mine for 3 years now
I just keep pushing forward.
I don't think you need worry about it too much just yet – your shape does change after having children, but the excess weight will come off gradually over time. I am now at the point of turning pear-shaped – with age!
