I just stumbled across "Pretty Face" today. I thatought your last post was really great! I know what you mean about how we'll probably never be happy with our body as long as we're on the dieting cycle. Its so sad that healthy body image is practically non-existent in our culture. I don't know anyone who is truly 100% happy with their body. I myself can think of one time in my life that I stood in front of the mirror and looked at my body with a genuine awe and appreciation for the God breathed miracle that it is (I was pregnant for the 2nd time and pretty big - but I was amazed that imperfect as it was God was using my body to grow a beautiful baby). I hope that you're doing well and find an appreciation and contentment in your body today. Feel free to check out my post on my weight gain/loss story.
I am 32, and used to have a blog called The Pretty Face. I let it go and will update here from time to time because I'll miss my readers too much otherwise.
