I think I like My Butt

I have to give you girls credit for really kicking it up and getting yourself in some smokin shape and getting tight butts in good order.

But, I am kinda past that point of looking smokin hot.. in fact, a nice simmer will do me fine.

And today, I came to terms with the fact that I like my butt and can live with it in its current state and shape.

I can wear a size 14 now and I am OK with that.. I realize that with my star qualities,   a Size 8 would put me on the front of Vogue or even get me a gig on Dancing with Stars.. but I am OK with just being me and having a  well rounded bottom.

So is it OK.. that I have no desire to be obsessing with a size,  or a shape, or anything that can drive us insane. 

I mentioned last week that I was OK with my legs from the knees down.  And today, I am OK with my butt.  I don't think I will ever be OK with my arms (they are pretty flabby), but I can't be PERFECT.

So inch by inch, I am accepting the shape I am settling into ... and I think that is progress!

  4. Congrats on another piece of you. That is what we aim for; to be happy with our bodies - no matter what size that takes us too:)

  5. At least you're moving upwards. So inch by inch you will love your bod. I figured out years ago, that I'd never have the 20 year old body again. But at least we can have the best body for the rest of our lives by getting this weight off.

    It's totally OK not to obsess. I don't know how one does that but, maybe some day I'll learn to not obsess.

    Good for you!!

  8. That's more than just progress. Even super model types often do not "settle in" to their shapes and have as good an attitude as you do. Kudos!

  9. P.S. Did I miss the post where you celebrated hitting the half way point? Don't think I didn't notice.

  10. We are soul sisters...I know exactly what you're saying in this post. I'm not yet satisfied with any body parts but I am satisfied with my pace of weight loss and the best part of that equation is that it's based on a plan of no formal exercise except for my walking. And that I can do forever with no anxiety whatsoever.
