At 18, I had smallish boobs and biggish hips with muscular thighs. My stomach was flat and my waist was small. I hated that I had abs and a soft stomach and the fact that where my waist met my hips it just went straight out. It wasnt a soft curve, it was like a big jump. (I have a short waist?) I thought I looked fat, even though I weighed 10stone at almost 5ft 6 and wore a size 10. I wanted bigger boobs, longer legs and smaller hips
....
Oh Lord if I'd only known!!!!!!!!!
..
.So now, weighing close to 4 stone more than I did, I remember the body I had and think 'what was my problem?'!! Let's face it though, it was a long time ago and, even with years of dieting, I won't look like that again.
So I look to curvy but toned women as my source of inspiration. I can't change my body-type so I have to work with it, while still fighting against my fat-ass lazy streak. I don't think these ladies achieved their beautiful curves through eating Chinese takeaways and drinking pints of Heineken through straws (I know!!)!
Beyoncé. Look at her stomach! (A bigger bikini top wouldn't hurt though!):
Kelly Brook. Such a stupid picture but wouldn't we all ham it up if we looked like this!?:

Hey, good to find your blog again! I was following your old one. And super excited to hear you're working out and eating healthy...keep up the good work, you're sure to see results. Although I always thought you were very lovely and dramatic looking...but fitter's never a bad thing ;o).
hahaha edel! nice one!
thanks fallon! not sure i'll be doing marathons like you guys but you never know! ;)
I just had that conversation with my husband about not appreciating my body when I was in high school. Most girls are ill developed and have no hips. I had child bearing hips at the age of 14! lol I was 5'9 and 140 pounds and a size 8. I have gained some since marriage (size 12 now) and wonder why I ever beat myself up in my younger years. I think I've learned my lesson though. No matter what size I am, I WILL love myself because I can never go back and change how I felt! I am on my way back to that weight in the meanwhile:) Great Post!!!!!!
love it Dani! thanks for your comment! my kinda girl! :P
