Looking fantastic is fine, but if they are not nice, not kind, that goes out of the window for me. Having a pleasant personality is everything. I also enjoy people who make me laugh, they really brighten up my life!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5922496502378828071.post-3982374667823573392011-04-29T01:17:42.576-07:002011-04-29T01:17:42.576-07:00I'd love to learn yoga but my financial situat...I'd love to learn yoga but my financial situation isn't really there yet. There are a few dvds at the library, but I know I'd do better in a class setting. You have a beautiful figure Erika.

Remember how skinny I used to be? Well, some meds made me gain 60 pounds in 3 months, and I was devastated.. It literally took me a couple years (just recently) to realize it really doesn't matter what you look like, or how "small" you are. It's about who you are inside. After all, “You don't have a soul. You are a Soul. You have a body.”<br />I believe our bodies are so meaningless in this lifetime. What does it really matter? Seriously? (although, making your body healthy is a very very good idea! you don't want to get sick!) Your body is also a temple. Treat it as such :D (I'm sure you know that...)Erikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09073814457648153241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5922496502378828071.post-2510334636816295032011-04-28T09:09:02.721-07:002011-04-28T09:09:02.721-07:00I agree with you, post-baby body feels like ou are...I agree with you, post-baby body feels like ou are living in someone else's skin!!! You spend 9 months slowly growing and getting used to a new body and then all of a sudden, flabby stomach, no muscle tone, odd shapped breats, and the list goes on.... Although I constantly feel blessed and fortunate to have a healthy baby, I can not help but think that I will never have "my" body back, ever... but that's not true. This is my body, I need to learn to love it, cherrish it, nurture it and respect it again. Doing Yoga has helped me in many ways to re-connect with "my" body. Almost 7 months later I can now say that I love looking at myself in the mirror again... so ditch your scale, go for a walk, do Yoga in the morning, eat healthy and tell yourself one quality about your body everyday, because you deserve it!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5922496502378828071.post-43901543619416140362011-04-28T01:46:57.092-07:002011-04-28T01:46:57.092-07:00Hmm , at 17 years old I was 95 pounds then went to...Hmm , at 17 years old I was 95 pounds then went to 180 while pregnant.On the east coast the men pretty much demand "thier woman" get back in shape.Ok this is 1976.In 6 mths.
