'For me, 10 years ago - I would look at a styled photo of myself, where I looked ‘gorgeous’ and point out all my faults. The only person I had to think about was me... I guess you could say an element of me was selfish & materialistic!' Lauren continued.
Lauren then went onto how much she had changed since having children.
'Now I look at this pic of me, and think, that damn cold sore represents the efforts I have put in to make this move interstate as easy as possible on Miller. Working my butt off for two weeks to make him feel like he wasn’t living in chaos!' she wrote.
...And it has been wonderful, he has never felt scared or out of place and I am so proud. The pigment on my face symbolised the fact I am growing another life inside me, how cool is that? The bags... well they have been there since I fell pregnant the first time and symbolise the extra energy I didn’t know I could find, to make the most of everyday with my family' she continued.
'The messy bun, well that’s a sign of a mumma who has just made a delicious dinner, cleaned the house, run all the errands & spent some time in boss mode! And finally the gym clothes... which I’ve had on all day - show that I still managed to find time to look after my health amongst all that I do for others! So, compare this photo to one of me ten years ago... definitely not as glamorous... but I love this woman so much more, I think I look better... and I am completely comfortable being ME!'
