Miss Megan's Must Haves

So....
When I sat down at this computer and felt like blogging, I was in a rather bad mood.  I figure there was one of two ways this post could go.  I could throw a pity party and talk about my problems and my struggles and possibly cry, or I could suck it up, put on my big girl panties and have some fun.

Luckily for everyone involved I chose option two.

Since I am feeling down in the dumps, I don't really wish to toot my own horn about losing weight and toning up, even though that does make me feel better about myself.

I decided that I would let you guys (read ladies) in on some of my best kept secerts.

My biggest best kept secret is this stuff for ELF (eyes lips and face) Studio.  It's Under Eye Concealer and Highlighter.  It is a whooping $3 and can be found online at ELF or at Target.  It is seriously the best stuff...like EVER.  I use the concealer under my eyes, (duh) and then put a dab of the highlighter there too.  Then, here's the kicker, I put the highlighter on my eyelids as primer, and your eyeshadow stays on all day!!!!  SERIOUSLY ALL DAY!  For $3 you need this stuff.....like yesterday.  If you can't find it at a local store, shop online, they are always having some kind of deal :).

buy this...now
 My second best kept secret is something my dear friend Amber turned me on to.  It is Sinful Colors Nail Polish.  I found it at Wal-Mart, but of course you can look online for stores that sale it.  It was $1.98 at Wal-Mart.  And it literally last for a week, even without a topcoat.  And there are a ton of colors.  It makes me smile.  If you are like me and paint your nails constantly do yourself a favor and check into this stuff.

The last three are three of my favorite colors, Cinderalla (it's a blue shimmer), Mint Candy Apple and Island Coral (that is on my nails currently)


Piko Tops, are my next best kept secret.  I am sure most of you have discovered these already, but if you haven't please buy one.  They are comfortable and flattering on everyone.  They literally feel like you are wearing pajamas and you can find them just about anywhere.  Google it.


The website Modest Closet is one the best boutiques with the best prices.  Check it out ASAP.


So, that's all my secrets I feel like sharing with you.  I can't give it all away.

Jeans

No matter how stores try to candy coat it, there is a certain stigma around the plus size section of stores.  They can call it curvy or misses or whatever, but we all know what it is.  There is an imaginary line in the middle of the store where no one wants to cross.  At least that's how I feel about it.  I'm sure the girls on the "regular" side could careless, or the workers for that matter, but I always feel self conscious when shopping on the side of the store.  Sure, you get used to it and laugh when you're with your skinny friends and say "I'll be over on the big girl side" and saunter on your way to the plus size section.  While you began to search through the racks on your side, you secretly long to be on the other side of the store, where there is double, sometimes triple the selection of clothes.  You find something, take it back to the dressing room to try it on.  It doesn't look right, it's too tight, it's not what you thought ...

Transformation Tuesday

Good Tuesday Morning to you all! I am up bright and early to go to a workshop today.  It was hard to get up, which is funny because I get up early every other day. Anyways, this blog isn't about my workshop, it's about Transformation Tuesday.... I literally just read a quote on facebook while I was looking for a picture to use, that sums up transformation:  Transformation is not easy. It starts on the inside before you see it on the outside. There are struggles. It comes with pain. It comes with a lot of hard work and effort. Without going through the tough stuff you aren't able to enjoy true transformation. Don't be discouraged but the rough days. Greater things are on the other side! ♥   That's the honest truth.  Transformation isn't easy, but it is the most enjoyable thing I have experienced.  And the thing about transforming your body, you also transform your mind.  Everything changes.   This is me.  This is me before...

What I Want You To Understand

I posted the following picture on Facebook and Instagram last night. I posted the following caption with it:  I wish I could explain how it feels to look at these pictures. I'm sure I should feel proud, but I feel disgusted. I remember being that girl. I remember how I felt.... Miserable. Look at that stomach. That isn't normal. That's not how a woman is supposed to look. I am disappointed in myself that I did that to myself. I am also disgusted that I've come so far and I've been slacking. I hate it. And I hate what I've done. Turning around again. ‪#‎ progress‬ ‪#‎ motivation‬ ‪#‎ fightingtheinnerfatgirl‬ My Instagram friends took this post for what it was worth, leaving comments such as "We all fall down and get back up" and "I understand how you feel,I've been slacking too".  My Facebook friends, however, just kept telling me how I was beautiful before and now and that beauty is not defined by a size and not to be to ...
