Yes I realize I am carrying around a few extra pounds but if you think you can use that against me and my self esteem think again!
I am in FABULOUS shape for a woman my age. No, my body is not perfect. I have carried, delivered naturally and nursed three children. I have had some surgeries--nothing major but they've left scars and distorted parts of my body I'm not eager to show off! But I exercise EVERY day. I watch what I eat and a year and a half ago, I had lost a LOT of weight.
Then I had to have knee surgery (birth defect) and because of the physical therapy I had to endure (followed by my unplanned, yet totally deserved, divorce) I have put some of the weight back on. But I'm working on getting it off through my diet and exercise routine and am planning on some plastic surgery in the near future.
Not that I say this with the intention of putting down ANY of my friends or anyone else, when I look around I see people who are thinner and in better shape than me but I also see A LOT of people who are worse off--to the point of having major health problems. I dont have to take any medications for weight-related health issues, havent had to have any surgeries because of strain on joints or other bones and I can still hold my own on the dance floor, around the track or doing any other strenuous activity with a LOT of women HALF my age.
So I'm PROUD of the way I look and if you dont like it--bite me! I will soon have a body you'll never get to touch ever or again!
