A colleague and I were talking about visiting family during the holidays when she mentioned that she was nervous about it because she was the heaviest that she’s ever been. Even though it’s only 10 or 15 pounds, she feels like she doesn’t look like herself.
I'm with you Wendy. I think many women in our age group are clinging to a physical "ideal" which is often difficult to achieve and not necessarily, healthy. For example, for me to get to my ideal weight, I have to skip meals. Frequently. I end up feeling irritable. Good health should be the ideal we strive for, but we haven't been conditioned to that.
Thank you Wendy. For me...I have been so upset with the aging process...I look at myself and ask why in just 6 years did I change so dramatically...I am now 61 and simply unprepared for looking so different. You are beautiful. xo
