Quick thoughts on being attractive

I feel like saying this.

I don't obsess about my weight.

I don't determine the worth of food by counting its calories.

I eat whole, organic, real food.  Lots of it.  I don't need to earn the right to eat by exercising or restricting myself.

I don't diet.

I don't wear Spanx or "tummy-control" clothing.  It sucks and it's uncomfortable.  I don't believe in being uncomfortable all day, in an effort to fool you into believing that I'm thinner than I am.

I'm not thinner than I am, and I don't care who knows it.

If someone doesn't find me attractive because of any of this, or because of anything else, WELL THEN I GUESS WE JUST WEREN'T MEANT TO TOUCH WIENERS.

And you can't begin to imagine how okay I am with that.


You're beautiful, just the way you are.

  1. Yes, as the matter of fact, you're fucking gorgeous. But if it's all the same, I'll keep my nonweiner to myself ;P

  2. I know, right? I'm also okay with wearing clothing that doesn't "flatter my shape" or make me look like I have a waist or push any part of my body up or in. I'm so over pretending.

  3. You said that beautifully and are simply gorgeous actually. I wish this message could be imparted to every 10-11 year old girl on the planet. And, like Jessie, I'll keep my nonweiner to myself as well. Still giggling over that one.

  4. I had an interesting thing happen to me this week. I'm a single mom who has been feeling a little frumpy lately, a little too round around the middle, not sexy at all and I had a beautiful man out of the blue comment on my nice body. It totally changed my perception and made me feel round, sexy, and womanly. Now if I could just do that for myself!

    I'm hoping I can file his comment in the "things to remember when you don't feel beautiful" file in my brain.
