I dread the next 6 months of being so fat after the baby is born.

It's unfair that we are teased with perfect bodies in our teenaged years (when we have no concept of how to truly appreciate them), and then they are yanked away from us after such a short association. We spend the rest of our lives remembering what it felt like to have lean thighs, flat tummies, skinny little waists. Our thoughts, "if only i could lose 10 lbs, i'd be happy..." How sad."<BR/><BR/>I totally agree with all you've said, but particularily envy you on the above statement. Unfortunately, I'm one of those individuals who has pretty much been overweight all my life (sometimes more than others...), so I can't say that I even 'know' what it feels like to be 'thin'.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3732505642831040032.post-20460862134940418522007-10-15T22:50:00.000-06:002007-10-15T22:50:00.000-06:00Amen, this is why I love you.

Sure I would love to lose 10 lbs, but if I were honest with myself I'm probably exactly where I am suppose to be. Thank you for reminding me that we all are too caught up with weight and we don't recognize the inner strength we already have.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08155085662034403052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3732505642831040032.post-25520059776877839292007-10-15T21:33:00.000-06:002007-10-15T21:33:00.000-06:00I had a few moments to catch up on your blog--abou...I had a few moments to catch up on your blog--about the tamales; they were SOOOO good! I think you're a fabulous cook. Well, anyone that cooks for me is fabulous, these days! Anyway, Amy, I always enjoy your cooking and think you're being too hard on yourself regarding your culinary skills. Please teach your mom how to make tamales!!! There were only two--I wanted twenty! Good work!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
