I’m on a bit of an emotional struggle bus, so I went with clothes that are comfy and just make me happy. I do have a meeting with my executive director, so I wore my fancy corduroy overalls instead of my denim ones 😂

Good Morning all you beautiful ladies. I haven’t been posting much since I have the same ole clothes. Nothing new lately. I think I need to change that. Just another work day for me. But I feel alive again since I’ve been sick. I hope you all have wonderful days.

I love that outfit! You look great!

Lol, y’all pinup gals look awesome for sure, but this.

This is what I’m going to try my hardest to achieve.

Damn right & I would love to go braless, but can't imagine that being in the cards!

You guys give me so much inspiration and hope that one day I’ll be able to shop and not have to worry about fitting into something. I’m loving everyone’s outfits!

The difference between Jane Fonda and Jennifer Lopez is best demonstrated in one word, class. Jane Fonda proves you can be attractive at any age with your clothes on.

I think they are both awesome. In my own humble opinion, clothes (or lack of them) doesn't define class. The way one treats others unlike themselves does.

I absolutely agree.

I'd like to add that there is nothing wrong with the female/human body. It's a normal, natural thing. The idea of what one should/shouldn't do or wear are just social constructs, and they change over time. Plus, pssssst - look up Jane Fonda's body painting spread. And, I'd like to add that showing her body has NEVER been a problem for her. And it shouldn't be. I have a ton of respect for people with the confidence and self love to do what they want like that.

This brings up something that has been on my mind with the "ideal" discussion. A bit of background: I was super obese my entire adult life. Either dieting or feeling ashamed because I wasn't dieting and "should" have been. While having an "ideal" is a fun exercise, it's really not something I'm serious about.

My work right now is not changing my body into what I think I want it to be, and never being satisfied with it, to learning to love who I am now while still doing the stuff I love (I actually love weightlifting and running).

Of course within that is a balance, I'm going to have plastics in a couple of years to reconstruct my stomach (and probably my boobs). But I don't want to keep chasing some major ideal. I want some peace, and I want to model that to my students.

I know that we all have our own goals and our own wants. That's great and awesome and part of what makes us all unique and such a fun group. These are just some thoughts I'm having as I process what it means to choose to be in maintenance.
