So happy to see ...I love the new look of your blog. So happy to see a photo of your ladies, in all shapes, sizes and color;) The particular subject of this 'rant' hit so close to home for me. When I was in high school, I struggled terribly; not with weight but with self-image that turned into weight issues. It was all about being accepted, being part of the 'in' group, the competition of who can lose 5 pounds in a month? a week? a day?! My 'weight issue' turned into anorexia. I was 'skinny' through my 20's and after 2 kids and menopause, I see myself as fat! I long to be skinny...or at least, skinnier. I argue, fight and battle it out with the 'skinny lord' every day! Then I am hit with guilt because I KNOW it saddens my Heavenly to see me in such despair over what I perceive as "not good enough". The mirror image that I have set all judgment against. How wrong I have been, and still am. I am a work in progress, as slow as it may seem at times. Thank you for being so candid and honest. I love your blog posts my dear :) Luana Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
