    Mediterranean Chicken Flatbread Pizza

Who are we kidding.  Whether it’s that postpartum saggy skin, stretch marks, that little bit of cellulite that came out of nowhere, those not-so-perky-anymore boobies, or those scrawny stick legs with no muscle tone.  We’re shown “perfection” our whole lives in magazines and on TV and live in a competitive society which makes us feel like we have to constantly improve.   Plus, as a woman, it’s in our nature to be judgy and…
