I’m 2 months postpartum in the right hand side photo, I remember this day I went to the gym and caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror and my first thought was “yuk, never, ever, ever wear shorts to the gym again”🤦🏼♀️ _
Now I have a confession.. I actually haven’t worn shorts to the gym since this day. It’s stupid how our minds work and play games.

Today I went to grab my tights and let me tell you, you know when you open your oven door and the heat hits you in the face well that’s Sydney’s weather right now 😓 I said to myself “ You’re an idiot just freckin wear shorts”. It sounds stupid I know but trust me this took a lot to do. So I rocked it, acted confident.

So here’s me in the left hand side photo today, I looked in the mirror and accepted my reflection and honestly was proud of the person I saw before me.

I wanted to share this because something that seems small to another is a HUGE step for others. I’ve said this before but it’s taken me years to be content with my self confidence/body image. I try everyday to focus on the things I love about myself not hate. 💖
