the power of positive thinking — its so true! sometimes i get down on myself, and who doesnt i guess…but even though sometimes you might just need to be in a stinky mood for five minutes, it's just SO silly to let negative things YOU tell YOURSELF ruin your night or week or month or YEAR. because it can happen! good job making the experience fun for you two instead of an awkward, difficult night

Awesome Post! I had THE EXACT same experience when I went Birthday shopping this year! we are so much a like it is funny! I want you to know that I think about your blog all the time and try to use it to help me be more positive about myself. I even told Jared the other day, when I said he looked cute and he disagreed, I said, Natalie's blog said you have to tell yourslef positive things so you will believe it! Thanks for inspiring us all to be better!

Your amazing! truly an inspiration to us all. I've had many instances of my own being in a dressing room, and mentally beating myself up because of how awful i thought i looked. Its been a journey getting to where i am today, but knowing that i'm not alone in this world makes me feel better! we are ALL BEAUTIFUL and AMAZING ladies. i love that we can get words of encouragement whenever we need it! Your story is one for the books. YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL

Oh…I LOVED this post! Oh my God you could not have posted this at the most opportune time because though I'm the opposite in weight issues, it HITS me so hard because I am really dealing with beauty issues as well…I admire the fullness and radiance in other girls, their curvy, womanly bodies, their big eyes, lovely features, etc…and I despaired that I would ever get over this petty vanity…

You have given me hope that it IS possible to be confident of myself, no matter how I look. The choice IS in me, and I CHOOSE to look at the mirror and see myself as the fairest of them all!
Thank you SOO much for this post!

Great post! Sometimes when I'm at yoga I find myself looking in the mirror and thinking my body isn't perfect enough to be doing yoga. "I'm not as thin as everyone else." But then when I can get through certain challenging poses it's a reminder that you only get one body and when it works hard for you, you should proud!

Isn't it amazing how much an article of clothing can affect our mood for an entire day, or even week? I don't know if it is just that I'm older and wiser, or if working out and eating healthy just makes me feel good in my skin (I'm thinking it's a little from column A and a little from column B), but I am totally with you on the fact that I can just buy what fits and what I feel good in and not care about what the size on the label says.

Oh, and I love my scary leg muscles. Even though sometimes I think "yikes, women shouldn't get definition like this" it still makes me proud that I can!

Awesome post! I'm so glad to hear about your major improvement. How you view yourself and the world completely changes the quality of your life, for sure! And trying on clothes, especially jeans, can be a bit traumatizing for those who are perfectionist. No body is perfect! Yay for realizing that and accepting your body

Thanks for the sweet comment on my blog!

trying on jeans always either puts me in the best mood (look! I'm so cute in EVERYTHING) or the worst mood (I have the weirdest body! why won't anything fit?!)… I'm glad you had a good one!

i love shopping with my fiance because anything i put on he'll tell me looks perfect
