30 Days of Truth (Day 01)

Day 1: Something you hate about yourself.


Stretch marks or striae (singular stria), as they are called in dermatology, are a form of scarring on the skin with an off-color hue. They are caused by tearing of the dermis, and over time can diminish but not disappear completely.


I wont lie, I'm very self conscious. I hate my weight and the effects that pregnancy has taken on my body. Now, granted I weighed more before I became pregnant with Kade, than I do now. But I had two huge babies. I gained 35lbs with Kade and about 50lbs with Kyson. For some reason the scale keeps telling me that I have lost it all...but the mirror begs to differ. I have stretch marks from hell! I have decided that my stomach looks like Freddy Krueger's face...and its just as scary!!

Okay, okay...maybe its not that bad...buts it's still just as scary. It is streched so bad that the skin is loose. So even if I lost 100% of the fat on my stomach it would look even worse because then it would be shriveled! ewww! Can anyone relate?

Needless to say, no cream can fix what I have...I need a tummy tuck!!! I would LOVE to have a stomach like this....

Actually, the rest of that body would be nice too...
