21 Day Body Transformation - Day 4

So we’ve made it to day 4.  I don’t know about you, but I’m kinda sore today.  Not sore bad, but sore like my muscles actually got used yesterday.  I feel FANTASTIC! Today’s challenges are really neat and #1 is something that I’ve kind of learned to do since becoming a Paleo life-styler.  I don’t [...]

 

I am so, completely over hearing about parents who are up in arms about dressing their baby girls up in pink ruffles and frills.  These are the same people who assert that gender “stereotyping” is out of control in the media and scream for gender “equality”.  They think that our girls should wear clothing with [...]

 
A Conundrum

So if you’ve been reading me since I first started blogging (when I was Rebel Crunch Mama), you know about  how a couple friends decided that I was unbearable to be around because I’m *GASP* opinionated. I’ve been lucky enough to not really run into them while out and about in Savannah (other than a [...]

 
Fit Friday Confession: I'm Still Fat

So since I posted my fat confession, I have lost 10 lbs.  And then gained them back.  Plus one. I’m terribly unhappy with my body and yesterday, I was thisclose to switching Grady to formula so that I could start on a strict anti-carb diet and work out regimen. Kyle was soooooooooo pissed when I told [...]

 
My Fragile Psyche

So as uncomfortable as I am looking at myself in the mirror, I have never been happier or more comfortable with myself in my life.  I don’t know if it is because I am getting older (30 in 2 months), or if it’s because my hunky husband somehow still wants to have everything to do [...]

 
Confession:  I'm Fat.

I’ve never been happy with the way that my body looks and I know for a fact that my friends, from Middle School to current, can attest to the fact that I put myself down way too much.  Now that I look at pictures of myself from pre-Madilyn, I am disgusted that I ever thought [...]

 
How Does Racial Sensitivity Affect Equality?

This blog post from The Stir has me REALLY stirred up.  It is entitled “Racial Sensitivity Courses Should be Mandatory for Adoptive Parents”.  Um…WHA?  The article asserts that adoptive parents should have to learn about the culture and community that corresponds with whatever race of child they choose to adopt.  The writer says that by [...]

 
She's Beautiful, So Why Aren't I?

Having a daughter scares me. I grew up with a mother who struggled with body image. She was anorexic/bulimic and I had to call 911 multiple times for her passing out after not eating for weeks. I’ll never forget when she weighed 88 lbs at 5’7″ and would suck her stomach in until you could [...]

 
TSA Invasion: Boobies Beware!

There has been such a hubbub about the new full body scanners in airports.  This insurgence of media coverage has caused me to spend quite some time thinking about what I would do if faced with the possibility of going through one of those vs. having a full body pat down.  I also think about [...]

 
I Want my Body Back! (whatever that means)

It all happened way too quickly.  I was not pregnant and not looking to get pregnant one minute and the next minute I was most definitely pregnant.  Two pink lines and BAM.  My body began to change.  I went from being the head chairwoman of the “Itty Bitty Titty Committee” to Pamela Anderson Lee’s chest [...]
