She didn't come close enough to where I live that I could see her, so I'd love a chance to win her book. Thanks!</p>AsaraThu, 05 Nov 2015 15:47:57 -0000http://www.snarksandladders.com/?p=605#comment-506985632<p>I struggle with the same things myself. And you're absolutely right, it's impossible to say "I'm dieting so I'll feel better about myself" because all the reasons I'll feel better about myself are immediately tied in to what other people think about me. I want to be skinnier because I want people to stop asking when I'm due (yeah, I get that too. A lot of my extra pounds are in my belly. Thanks children.). I want my husband to find me attractive again (like, actually look at me like he is attracted to me, not just go through the motions because he need someone/something to go through the motions with). I really don't know how to change it or find that magical part of my brain that will convince the rest that I really do look just as good now as I did in high school when I wore a size 8 instead of an 18.</p><p>If you do find a solution, please do share.

Definitely worth the effort of making them.. each one was as delicious as the last!!</p>AsaraTue, 15 Jul 2008 12:01:44 -0000
