"You look good for having 3 kids." Have you ever got that? I am lucky not to have so far, but this weekend I was reading a dieting ad and one of the "before and after's" quote was "I heard 'you look good for having 3 kids', but I just wanted to look good period." Wow! I never thought of it that way. I am lucky enough to be one of the ones that goes in for a 6 week recheck and the doctor says "You don't look like you just had a baby 6 weeks ago." That is nice, but you were there, right? If not I want my money back. Anyway, I have found new light on the "you look good for having x kids." From now on I am sticking with, "Damn, you look great!" Point. Blank. Done. End of comment. That is what we mean, right? Why bring 9 months and 80 extra pounds into it? Especially if it was 1, 3, 5, 10, 16 years ago.
