Welcome to TigerStripes

WHAT DO YOU HATE ABOUT YOUR BODY?? Easy question?

WHAT DO YOU LOVE ABOUT YOUR BODY?? Not such an easy question?

 

Why do we find it hard to answer that question?

 

Hi! my name is Candy. I am 24 years old and i have 2 stunning daughters under the age of 4 and an amazing boyfriend.

I have suffered from anorexia nervosa and bulemia since i was 12 years old. i have managed it very well until my 2nd daugher was born. in february 2012 i stopped eating. But now i am fine. I am better than fine, i am HAPPY!

I am 5"4, 11 stone and a size 12. I have a rather large bottom, a squashy tummy and stretch marks. My BMI classifies me as overweight. I am bigger and heavier than i have ever been BUT i feel happier and sexier then i have ever felt!!

 

I LOVE MY BUM, I LOVE MY BOOBS AND I LOVE MY STRETCH MARKS! i think i have quite nice legs. i do not like my arms, my tummy and my 'double' chin. (i probably dont have a double chin but i think i do!)

 

i am proud of being me! i am not perfect, i will never be perfect. i dont want to chase perfection...i realise chasing perfection is like chasing the end of a rainbow. If i did reach my goal weight i would still want to weigh less.

 

I love biscuits, i love cupcakes , bread, coffee and pizza. And i definately drink WAY too much wine, more than my weekly unit allowance!!!

 

I go to the gym......occassionally.

I do really enjoy it, BUT...if i get 2 seconds of free time from my girls, what i enjoy more is, tele and sleep!

 

I am a housewife and a full time mum. I LOVE MY JOB!!

 

I HATE.....

Special K adverts

Bikini adverts that use teeny tiny models

Adverts for fat free food (why should we feel guilty if we want to eat a FULL FAT YOGHURT???)

 

 

Be proud to be a woman, be proud to be normal sized.......sexy!!! After all, what would earth look like without mountains? What would the ocean look like without waves? What would jeans be like without pockets? You wouldn't know where to put your hands!!

 

Do not count the calories in a chocolate cake, count the smiles you get when you have chocolate icing in your teeth! Do not count the calories in a small glass of wine, count the muscles relaxing when your slide into a boiling hot bath with a bottle!

 

Ask any man, who wants an ironing board, a plank, a skeleton when you can have a woman? After all, you need some cushion for the pushin' and you need a booty if you wana shake it!

 

HANDS UP FOR THE WOMAN...THE REAL WOMAN no matter what size or shape, be healthy, be happy and be proud! LOVE YOURSELF
