My personal rule is to limit looking at myself in the mirror (especially those pesky floor-length ones) for more than 10 seconds at a time.

Remember what God says about you, “I have loved you with an everlasting love” (Jeremiah 31:3). We are indeed beautiful to Him. Keep praying. Your husband likely only knows part of how his words hurt. I will pray as well.

Smart Anonymous – That is not a dumb question. I didn’t know until I asked. A “muffin top” is the slang term for the extra midsection (fat) that hangs over the waistand of a pair of pants or skirt. It is shaped like the top of a muffin hanging over the cupcake liner. With tighter, lower-rise jeans and our fast-food diets, there is more and more of that in America these days. I vote that Levi’s and Spanx team up to provide shapewear jeans, thus solving the rampant muffin top issue (well, without us all going on the Biggest Loser).

I had an ugly day a while back when we were heading out to a lunch with my husband’s work mates and their wives. Hubby and kids were waiting in the car to go and I was standing in front of my wardrobe crying like my heart was broken because I had nothing to wear and all the work mates’ wives are gorgeous. My husband came in and found me like that. I wished he had hugged me and said it’s ok. I wish he had told me I am beautiful to him. No. He told me I should have “effin” gone and bought clothes like he’d told me to. I argued that it’s not so easy with four kids in tow. Ladies, thank the Lord daily for you husbands who love you. They may have their faults, but their love can cover a multitude of sins. I, in the meantime, will keep praying. K

I especially liked the part about the ice cream sandwich-LOL! Some days I feel like I have come to acceptance with my body and some days it gets me down.I am doing a small group thru my church with Lisa Terkyrst book Made To Crave and it is helping me crave God and not food!

Where did you get the photograph of Yoda? Was he sunburnt at the time, because I remember him as being more green.

More seriously, my DW’s beauty is much more thaqn skin deep. She has a holy character and a way of communicating God’s love to all of mankind that leaves me awestruck. So what if she’s put on a few pounds since we married, so have I. How can I ask her to do something (loes weight) I cannot do myself. Her body changed with the birth of our two children and she has a scar where she needed an emergency operation on an ectopic pregnancy, which never ceases to remind me of the risks she took to carry our children. She looks bettter to me today than she did when we first met.

Yes I have days like that when I look in my closet at my clothes and cry,”whhhhyyyyy?” I know it’s random but it’s how I feel when everything looks and feels UGLY! However, the other day I went shopping and found a bra and a pair of shoes all in the same day. I mean COME ON! That little blessing will carry me for many a weeks. LOL!

Lisa Maria – Thanks for the compliment! I’m convinced that if Marilyn Monroe had worn low-rise skinny jeans in her day, she would have had a muffin top too! 🙂
