Bren writes: "I love my muslos. Just love them! Do I have talks with them on days they decide to act "cheezy"? Sure! But, I've embraced and accpeted after many, many years of

being called "thunder thighs" that my thighs hold me down! They are strong, defined, and allow me to run in the sand... Additionally, since I don't have

the biggest culo in the world, my thighs are that juicy part of my body that keep it sexy no matter what and ultimately support the hips

that'll allow me to bear children. And for fun, the men love some thick thighs!" These aren't going anywhere... ;) "

The pressure to look like a real man is intense - and more so the younger you are I think.

Or that's what I thought until Muscle Fitness has ' This Guy is 51!' on the cover - like being over 50 is ancient yet you could still look good if you put your mind to it.

Fat Girl number 9, 1/4 size, 20pp.

This is bravest thing I have ever posted. So I'm hitting upload before I chicken out - this is in response to a BBC article I read and subsequently shared on Facebook about the reality of post pregnancy bodies - It led to a really refreshing conversation with a group of my friends feelings about their bodies.So I took this photo and wrote about it. here.

 

This is me – part naked, exposed and posting this before I chicken out – this is in response the BBC article - Are women’s bodies still beautiful after pregnancy? I read and subsequently shared it on Facebook and it led to a really refreshing conversation with a group of my friends – all mothers – feelings about their bodies.

 

Stretch marks, cesarean scars, weight gain between us we had all felt that something was at fault with our bodies. It made me feel – for want of a better expression. Less alone.

 

I was stupid while pregnant ate and ate and ate, young and niave so thought “it’s baby weight – it’ll come off”. I was a size 10 -12 when I fell pregnant yet came out of the hospital a size 16 with added stretch marks and flabby bits. The only time I’ve fit into a 12 since was when I was on antidepressants – I got better then my back and hip problems started and the weight piled back on.

 

Oftentimes I hate my body – I have no real hang ups on how other people view me, But I really do have issues with how I FEEL and I how I view myself and that feeling is compounded by the heatwave we’re currently experiencing. Spring, Autumn, Winter – hell even in the last few summers I’ve been able to hide behind jeans, jumpers and shirts, I can dress and pretend, but in this heat there is nowhere to so.

 

It’s uncomfortable to be fat. Clothes don’t fit – summer clothes are designed for waifs and in shorts and vests everything is on show. The fat on my thighs – because WHY DO THEY MAKE WOMENS SHORTS SO SHORT, the stretch marks on my arms, the creases on my back it’s all there for the world to see - and I feel uncomfortable, so very uncomfortable and exposed.

 

Some one sent a card into postsecret:

 

Being Fat Is like having your most humiliating "secret" visible for the world to see and JUDGE!

  

And they hit the nail on the head. While in reality I don’t care what YOU think of me, it only takes one story in media, one television programme about thin being beautiful, one stupid stupid facebook post or hurtful remark in the street to reinforce my feelings about myself. And I shouldn’t feel this bad about being me.

 

I’m 32, a Mom of one, recently married with a great job. I’ve overcome homelessness, selfishness and health issues to be where I am today and here isn’t such a bad place…

 

…So I’ve been brave and taken this photo. This is me laid bare, I can look at this and see the back fat and the split ends or I can look at this and see history. Every ounce of that weight has been on a journey with me and I need to be grateful for who I am and what I have, and so should all of the other ladies who were talking to me today. I have the greatest of respect for you my friends. You exude confidence and are so much fun to be around from the exterior no one would know of the body issues beneath.

 

It has taken so much courage for me to take and post this photo ( no really there was nearly tears and I’m home alone) but you’re - WE’RE - all beautiful and think we just need to believe that of ourselves.

  

I found a really great way to take pictures of myself - i have a horizontal light right over my mirror, and my camera strap is just long enough to let the camera hang on it snugly with no risk of falling down. Self timer + look in the mirror = you get a picture of yourself while understanding (vaguely) what is in the viewfinder. I woke up today and felt like I was having an "attractive" day, so I put on my leather skirt together with this crop top a girl from my college gave me. I asked her if she had any mesh clothes as I'm sewing a dress for Leaver's Ball, and she brought me this. The pattern doesn't fit with what I had in mind, so I guess I'll just wear it the way it was made :)

The Doll Project is a series of conceptual digital photographs that uses fashion dolls to embody the negative messages the media gives to young girls. Though it would not be fair to blame it all on Barbie, there have been many instances in which she has come dangerously close. I chose to use Barbie dolls because they are miniature mannequins, emblems of the fashion world writ small, a representation of our culture's impossible standards of beauty scaled to one sixth actual size. The little pink scale and How To Lose Weight book are both real Barbie accessories from the 1960s. They are recurring motifs in the pictures in the series, symbolizing the ongoing dissatisfaction many girls and women feel about their weight and body image. The dolls' names, Ana and Mia, are taken from internet neologisms coined by anorexic and bulimic girls who have formed online communities with the unfortunate purpose of encouraging each other in their disordered eating. With each passing era, Ana and Mia are younger and younger, and the physical ideal to which they aspire becomes more unattainable. They internalize the unrealistic expectations of a society that digitally manipulates images of women in fashion and beauty advertisements and value their own bodies only as objects for others to look at and desire.

We got our ultrascreen at 12 weeks and all is well. So I took a break from drawing this week to share this image of our little one, dancing/swimming/biking/running around my uterus.

 

Belly starting to show a little bit more this week. These are maternity clothes I am wearing, as most of my clothing is uncomfortable or doesn't fit.
