WOMAN SAY SHE USED TO BE A CHIOBU, LAST TIME IN BEAUTY PAGEANT, 2 KIDS LATER NOT CHIO LIAO

I used to be a chiobu, how do I become a hot mum now?

Advertisements

I was a competitive netball player and was in beauty pageant (no shame is saying this since it’s anon online), but life has slowly wore me down.

I used to eat health food, have an exercise routine, yoga etc. But these days it just feels like I’m fighting so hard to stay afloat with caffeine, disrupted nights (I have two kids now and hubby wants one more – I don’t mind but I feel like I need to get back myself first).

Weekdays are just trying to get through the kids routine, chionging work so that I don’t have to bring work home etc.

Going to work, I put on minimal make-up on my face and I just dress in the same usual clothes that I know would look forgiving.

But deep down, I know my skin has gotten quite bad when I didn’t even need to maintain last time. Old itch scars coz of bad habits don’t seem to heal as fast or as well.

Some flabby parts are showing but I don’t have time for exercise on weekdays (hoping to squeeze some time on weekend).

I feel like my youth is over but yet it shouldn’t when I look at my peers doing all their rock climbing etc.

Something feels like self-care shouldn’t be tough, and these days I’ve been thinking if there’s those kind of beauty salon that can “fix me up”.

Just maybe let me lie there and let them make me beautiful again? I want it to help me start having healthy lifestyle, exercise routine feels like a natural part of my life (rather than to struggle to start to a routine again). How much will that cost? Is $200-300 a month sufficient? Never been to any of those places, how does it work?

Any tips or advice will be appreciate, thanks in advance.

Netizens’ comments

  1. Instagram “hot mums” are putting in fitness classes 6x a week and following ridiculous diets. It is really that difficult to maintain after you get kids
    Every other advice here is just feel good crap
  2. Hey mama you’re doing your best and you should be proud of it. You see dark circles and flabby meat but I see a responsible mum doing her best. If your child is young, this stage won’t last. Focus on having enough rest and having the best life with your spouse and kids. I’m sure to them you’re the most beautiful mum in the world. Yes rest is the most important and I know its hard right now but it will get better. Once the kids can sleep through the night you can have beauty sleep again.
    Outsource whatever you can and want to. Cleaning, teaching the kids, even waking up with the kids at night. It’s not your sole responsibility. Make sure husband steps up and if it’s still not enough hire helper if you can. Best if you can also tap on support network like family and friends.
    Drink enough water this is very important!you’re probably too busy to remember. Get those water bottle with markings so you remember to stay hydrated throughout the day. Maybe those sports bottle that you squeeze jnto your mouth so you can just drink with one hand while other hand can carry baby.
    Try doing YouTube workouts if your body allows it. Not right after giving birth though!! It’s free n convenient! Can even squat with baby LOL
    Lastly can go for facial or massage. Check out fave app there’s usually trial price like 18, 28 etc but they will usually hardshell you to buy package.. but can say no if you don’t want to. But if you want consistency can consider signing up too if price is reasonable. It’s cheaper in jb batam Bangkok etc if you’re able to go sometimes!
