I can totally relate to this. I’ve always had a high metabolism and for a long time felt smug that I never obsessed over what I ate. I snapped right back after my first pregnancy, which I’ll admit I also felt a bit smug about. My second pregnancy was a different story. My tummy never lost its pooch and I noticed it every time I looked I the mirror or at a photo of myself. I went on my first diet and certainly stopped feeling smug! I realized I’m just as susceptible to body image issues as the next woman. Not a fun realization for a feminist!
