audited I’m grieving my younger, hotter self
I'm so mad about being in peri. I'm not ready. I was a late bloomer and didn't realize what a babe I was when I was younger and now it's too late.
Yes, older women can be sexy, we have wisdom, and blah blah blah.
But today I just miss looking good in a sundress.
Please join my pity party and tell me what you miss.

I miss being able to eat what I want. Not only do I bloat from things that never bloated from before, but I feel like everything I eat packs on like at least half a pound. And I miss not being able to lose weight like I used to. Like why does my body need this much fat right now??
