If you're friends with my on facebook you know I've had a rather eventful weekend with all three kids along with myself getting a stomach virus. It was not fun. I got an okay workout done on Saturday and Sunday my abs were killing me as I stood over the toilet.
I've had tons of great conversations this week with friends about body image and health and daughters. I previously shared an article that spoke about getting fit for the purpose of being able to outrun a mugger or lift a boulder, and this article has 10 Things I Want My Daughter to Know About Working Out which furthers my belief that while vanity certainly plays a part in wanting to lose this pregnancy weight being able to live a better life has an even greater pull.
These conversations remind me of this pictograph I saw awhile back of all the Olympic ladies who each achieved greatness within their fields and none look alike. Strength and fitness is beautiful! So go be beautiful today! I'm trying to get my kids healthy while trying to grasp some appearance of normalcy in my life.
