Do you all have lovely ones to want back then?

swap you if you like. I got mine back and it's all crap and wrinkly, don't want it anymore thanks.

hunkermunker · 16/05/2006 16:08

Ah, mine crap and wrinkly too. Am seeing if padding it out with chocolate helps Grin

I don't want my pre-pregnancy body back but I don't like the one I've got. If anybody has a size 10ish tall body that would like to swap with a pear shaped 5 ft 4inches then let me know. Otherwise I've got to carry on going to weightwatchers and trying to run my arse into getting smaller! Grin

Wear a big corset then, apparently binding is the way to go - just ask Gwynnie.

LadyTophamHatt · 16/05/2006 16:13

I'm actually quite fond of my wrinkles and baggy bits now.

just as well really I suppose.

CarolinaMoonfish · 16/05/2006 16:15

I am trying to pad it out with another sprog, funnily enough Smile

motherinferior · 16/05/2006 16:16

It's not just the size thing, it's the feeling like a person, IMO. I wanted to feel like me again.

BettySpaghetti · 16/05/2006 16:16

I'd quite like mine back (the one I had when i was 18 please) - little did I realise at the time but it was OK as bodies go! No wrinkles/wobbles/muffin top etc

SoupDragon · 16/05/2006 16:17

My body was stolen my a 24 year old model and I WANT IT BACK.

hunkermunker · 16/05/2006 16:26

I don't know whether I don't feel like me or not.

Blimey, MI, what a confusing thing!

Yep, I had no idea how hot i was until it was gone. Grin Ds is a fair swap though. Actually more than fair, bloody wonderful. Even if i can never wear a bikini again...

Blandmum · 16/05/2006 16:34

Can I hire a size 14 body for a collage reunion in 4 weeks time?

I'll pay the insurance as I am likly to get pissed and misuse the body....which migh explain why my body is a size 18 Sad

dinosaure · 16/05/2006 16:36

DH, very oddly, seems to prefer me how I am now to when I was younger and thinner. Strange.

motherinferior · 16/05/2006 16:38

I meant more when you've recently had a baby, Hunker, and people say 'consolingly' to you 'oh, don't worry that you look like a deflating spacehopper, look at your lovely baby' and generally make you despair.

ruty · 16/05/2006 16:40

that is nice Dino. My ds does say my skin is really good now - what is that saying about either your face or your bum....?

Blandmum · 16/05/2006 16:41

My body was fairly crap before the baby if I am honest.

Not only was I at the back of the queue when they were handing out breasts, I was at the back of two diiferent queues! Grin

So I didn't feel that different after being pg, just a touch flabbier. The benefits of always lacking a good bady I suppose.

What I want back are quiet , uninterupted bowel movements.

expatinscotland · 16/05/2006 16:41

Am I the only one who truly would love to have her pre-babies body back?

I have to say, it was magnificent and I made the most of it.

:o

ruty · 16/05/2006 16:41

i mean my DH!

dinosaure · 16/05/2006 16:51

Well, mine would be wasted on DH, so I only want mine back if I can go and have some fun with it!

joelalie · 16/05/2006 17:00

No I want someone else's please.

I've lost quite a bit of weight but what I've got left seems to be a lot further south than it was. Hey ho......never happy eh?

Mercy · 16/05/2006 17:07

expat, mine was ok too pre-babies.

I have aged massively in the last 2 years - I now look like a scrawny old chicken. Nobody expresses surprise when they find out how old am, whereas they always used to. Even though my children are young, I find it hard to accept I am middle-aged.

CarolinaMoonfish · 16/05/2006 18:19

expat, if "making the most of it" involved blokes like that climber on member profiles, I'm not surprised you want it back Envy.
