Hi Angie,
Saw your link in the Women’s Health Blogfest. Nice blog. Love the photos! What I love about my body? I’m currently 34 1/2 weeks pregnant and love that I have this tiny little person that’s growing in there, getting ready to meet the world. What have I put off? Probably some much needed mommy TLC since I have a 2 y/o toddler and have put mommy time off over the last 2 years.

Hi Angie-
Great post. It reminds me of all the times I look at pictures from the past and think, “Wow, I looked pretty good back then” but, I also remember not THINKING I looked good at the time.
The message that we are beautiful today is a very important one, so thank you for the reminder!

Angie,
Thanks for a great post.
I have never really thought about what I love about my body. Although I don’t hate it, I’m not satisfied with where it is at this point. It’s not really with how I look, rather the dissatisfaction lies with knowing I need to be more physically active then I am right now. And I struggle to find something consistent.

Ladies- Thank you all for your fabulous comments!! I think it is important to acknowledge that having a positive body image isn’t easy every day for most women- it is something that most of us probably struggle with from time to time. We just need to remember to take care of ourselves and love our bodies for all the positive points!!

Thanks so much for reading!

Thanks for letting everyone know about Catilin’s Operation Beautiful, Angie. It is such a great campaign. I was going to blog on it myself today, but had never put up any post-it notes, much as I hate to admit it. I still may.

Totally agree w/ the idea that a positive body image increases success in achieving healthy weights. It’s really about taking care of ourselves, and when we don’t like ourselves, it’s hard to get motivated to do that.

Wonderful post! I love my body because it tells me exactly what it needs. Be it a good night’s sleep or an early morning run. It tells me it wants beans on toast for dinner and dark chocolate for dessert. All I have to do is to listen to it and nurture it.

I’ve also participated in Caitlin’s Operation Beautiful and the note I posted on a vending machine is still there after 3 weeks! I hope it made some people smile.
