mirpuppet that seems pretty good for a whole 10 days away - and did you enjoy it? was it worth it?
StuntNun I was going to say - and ignore it if it's unhelpful, I don't want to upset anyone - that why would it be so bad to accept that our bodies bear scars, not all of them as actual scarring, of carrying and delivering a baby. We are not the same afterwards - and they can be empowering scars, depending on how you look at them? Dealing with very scarred and disfigured legs, and thinking about what plastic surgery I actually want if any, has made me realise that we don't always have to fight, we can accept.
I got back to my pre-child weight in the first year - but I didn't fit in my pre-child clothes, and I think that's totally normal. Bodies just are a different shape.
Yes also to mir and Seri carrying on through Lent - I will probably do strict bootcamp Mon-Sat and light on Sundays, 85% chocolate and LC baking will be allowed, given that Sundays aren't actually in Lent.
Actually I want this to be my WOE for the year, but manageable size chunks seem to be the way to go. Eva saying how she had kept to it with few off track moments steadily through last year to this, and starting a bit less than me, and ending where I can only dream to be, has encouraged me loads!!
Self-absorbed whingy bit
I'm struggling today. Went to my GP this morning, have some antibiotics, which will hopefully take effect in a day or several. So it will get better. But it is really, really making me long for nice toast
