    Don’t get me started on the upper thigh gap – I hate those things on Pinterest!

    I love my friend Brooke’s post a couple weeks ago – her hash tag #WYCWYC – meaning “what you can when you can.”

    If you have to wait 15 minutes for a business to open up, go on a walk for 15 minutes instead of spending 15 minutes on Facebook! There are always snipets in a day that you can carve out to do squats, lunges, etc. – I do it when I make copies in our copy nook when no one can see me! 😀

    Happy Friday Lisa!

      Love it! Good tip! Fit in some walking or something here and there!

    Yeah, fuck Pinterest. 😀
    Having two babies has done a number on me and I really don’t like looking at my boobs or stomach. I just try to avoid it altogether. But it’s okay. I can dislike the way my body looks and still appreciate what it can do for me: make and push babies out, feed them, run lots of miles, metabolize drugs and alcohol… I feel like whether we love our thigh gap or love our rolls, we’re still placing a premium on appearance and I wish we could just eliminate looks from the equation completely.

      I wish I didn’t put so much stock in the scale and how the body looks. I wish I could focus more on how I feel and how my clothes fit.
