Oh how those images have bothered me, made me feel guilty, worried me and made me feel severely fat. But thank God there is some grace....No a lot of grace. As always, I am learning this bit by bit. Do read this article, it's fascinating.....

post baby weight....
Hey gals I just had to forward on this article that Jason sent me. It speaks to me because there have been so many times in the past six months when I've been standing in line at the grocery store only to be assaulted by images of "incredibly thin celebrity moms' 3 weeks after birth!"

Thanks for sharing Bek! It's so true--I know a mom who her and her husband have celebrity friends and she knew her doctor--had a c-section and an automatic tummy tuck and she's not even a celebrity! It's becoming more common which is so sad. I'll be praying for no more comparison for you :) love-a
I first of all have to say that I love you, I think this is a great post. You have a beautiful heart. I didn't read all of the article, but Brian did and filled me in. Celebrities are ridiculous! Thank goodness for Jesus and his grace and mercy!
You are beautiful in every way and Ava is such a gift from God. Thanks for sharing. When we are pregnant together we will have c-sections and tummy tucks K?Haha ;D NEVER!
Keep being you and please do not think for one second that you aren't one of thee most beautiful woman I know.
Love you! Lets get together soon.
Girl, you've got 'hey-hey' that I've only dreamed of!! Ha ha ha... You're gorgeous and I just want you to know that...and believe that. :)
It's hard getting used to a post-preggo body: my hips are an inch wider, my waist an inch higher, and my boobs an inch lower - and he's worth every upgrade!!
Love you!
Hey lady...thanks for sharing, it's good to prepare ourselves mentally...you're a sweetheart! Hey, can you tell me your address? We're mailing out prayer cards for India...AHH!
Wonderful sis :-)
I'm no mommy but I'm glad to see how God totally brought that article to you. He's so thoughtful, no?
Love you
