Thanks Deb for coming over and checking out this post. Practice makes permanent, right? I’m working on it. I’m working on it.

Listen to your husband, Jen. Guys dig curves!

Though I’ve never gotten naked in public (even a bathroom/quick changer in locker rooms), there is something very empowering about just letting go of all of the concern over what people think. But truly feeling good about ourselves, I agree, is another mountain to climb. For me, motherhood snapped me out of a lifetime of obsessing about my body. I began to focus much more not just on my kids, but on things that mattered to me and building my confidence in general. A greater body acceptance fell into place. The trick seems to be to think about it as little as possible.

Great post! I will definitely check out the Salon article too.

You have a very good point. We need to love the skin that we are in, if not for ourselves but for our kids. So that they can see we like what we have, though it is not perfect.
