I don’t feel beautiful anymore. I’ve gained weight in my face and body since having my baby 5months ago. My partner doesn’t hype me up anymore or call me beautiful. He doesn’t even show me off anymore. Working out will take some time to see results but idk what to do in the meantime to make me feel beautiful. I don’t even get compliments from ppl when I wear what I thought was a cute outfit.

I understand exactly how you feel ! Stop worrying so much about him and worry about finding yourself and how you feel! Hype yourself up! I am 10 months pp and there is times i feel so ugly but remember your biggest hype person is yourself! I am looking into starting the gym to make myself feel and look better
I’ll try to hype myself up more❤️ It just feels a little better when someone else hypes you up too

I felt this way about a week ago, as we had our baby a little over a month ago, and the effects of sleep deprivation along with lack of care were showing.
I decided to take a few extra moments when I went to the bathroom or when my baby went down for a nap to do some self care.
I invested in a gua sha face roller and have made sure to do my skin care, complete with any face masks. After the shower, I used my heatless hair curler instead of just throwing my hair in a bun or letting it air dry. In addition, I joined weight watchers and began tracking my points. As you said, all of this, other than the curlers, will take time.
However, with each step of skincare and with each day of tracking my points, I feel more confident because I know that I am filling my own cup.
Hopefully, this helps, but just know you are beautiful!! Life is just on a different chapter than what you are used to but have grace with yourself.
Thank you so much💕

If you can’t hype yourself then that’s the problem. Dont care what people think good or bad. And fat people get compliments all the time so you probably just have an “I’m ugly” look to you. Draggy, sad energy doesn’t get compliments. And even though you won’t see results the gym makes you feel good and changes your energy. Changes your mood. Then people around you change. Do it for you!

You have it all wrong. Because people only hype for so long then when you are too hype yourself they try and bring you down. So that’s why you should never care what ppl think. Some ppl even hype you when you are doing bad, so you can stay doing bad and not outshine them. People are inconsistent. The love for yourself never dies.
nah idk about that “I’m ugly” look 😁 I don’t go out in public moping around. I mean I still dress up n stuff but it’s just how I feel…but you’re right, I shouldn’t care about what ppl think💕💕

Lmao! Loook at you “naaaaaaah bitch now hold up! I know I’m fine.””
Hahahahahahhahahahah get it girl!!

You don’t have to show it for people to feel what you feel inside. Is my point lol. Energy is unseen. When you change the world changes around you. Test it out.
damn I guess you’re right😩
Thank you ❤️

No problem sexy!! 😉 😘

I get dressed up often and as long as I feel hot strutting out of that house that’s all that matters coz I carry that positive energy around w me all night w my head held high and that’s when I get the compliments. I don’t need them to look and feel good, they’re a good ego boost but I don’t strive on them either - when you are confident and glowing and carry yourself well (even if you do have some insecurities) that’s when the compliments come. So wear what u wanna wear, wear it loud and proud.
