Guest guest Posted April 26, 2006 Report Share Posted April 26, 2006 Ok... so I watched tv while I was making dinner lastnight... I admitt it! It was interesting. There was a lady on there that was gorgeous...she was so convinced she was ugly. Turns out this feeling of " ugly " was passed on from things she heard her Mom say to the mirror growing up. It was interesting. I have spent so many years dieting and feeling blahhhhhhh... even when I was in serious good great shape. I had two kids... a girl and a boy. They watched me get HUGE and then lose 40 pounds... and keep it off. They saw I did it by getting off the couch and walking and eating Weight watchers style. They are both into exercising and are in great shape... one problem..... My daughter sees herself as overweight all the time. I passed that on... I know I did. Both of my kids are hard on themselves. They are terrific kids... I am trying to feed them POSITIVE things even as adults now. Maybe reverse some of the things I passed on. Why am I writing this. LADIES IF YOU HAVE KIDS....PLEASE TALK NICE TO THE MIRROR. As you are on your BFL journey let your kids get excited with you... share with them how good you feel and how you are looking good too...one day at a time. Body for Life is a license to grow... to transform and a newness... lets share it with our kids so that they grow up confident and healthy both physically and mentally!!!! Off to my garden...
