 I think these women are completely gorgeous. They are curvy, but pretty toned and just exude confidence. This is the reason why I'm not going to focus so much on how much weight I'm losing- I'm sure these women would have unhealthy BMI's, but they look healthy to me. They look amazing- toned, but still padded in the desirable areas, and even some extra in the tummy and thighs. I want that! They look like WOMEN in my opinion. Beautiful confident women. 

This is what I want for myself. I want to lose the lumps and feel confident in a cute tight shirt or tank top. I want to wear body cli ging clothes without looking like a can of biscuits that just exploded. Don't worry, I'm not that harsh on myself, really. I just tend to wear clothes that skim over the curves instead of hugging them- keeping things looser in the stomach area. I never really wear shorts that hit above the knee- mostly because any shorts that fit well in the legs are likely to be a little/lot tight in the waist and hips. Similarly, most shorts, jeans, pants, etc that fit well in the waist are likely to be baggy in the thighs and right under the butt. How irritating is that?! I actually recently found a pair of Silver jeans from highschool that are pretty stretchy, and I can get them pulled all the way up, I just can't button them. That was a nice surprise. I know I have a long ways to go and a lot of work to put in, but little surprises like that are only going to fuel my journey.
