I was huge. Yeah, it's okay. I know. I was huge! I had over 10lbs of baby in my belly and she stuck straight out. So afterwards, my tummy was ruined. The skin never quite recovered and the stretch marks. Oh my goodness, the stretch marks!! I have never worn a two piece bathing suit again.
I have told myself for these last 7 years that it's my skin's fault. The baby stretched my skin out and that's why my stomach looks the way it does. I would see other women with flat abs and console myself with the thoughts that those women had better genes and smaller babies.
But now I'm starting to wonder. Perhaps those women put in the time and energy in diet and exercise instead of excuses and ice cream. So I'm done. With the excuses anyway, I still like the occasional bowl of ice cream (in moderation). And my goal for this summer is to wear a two piece bathing suit to the lake. It can be a tankini, I have been scared to wear one for over 7 years, but I will wear a two piece bathing suit in public. So help me God. Please, help me, God.
