<p style="text-align: center;">During one of my morning workouts, I caught a glimpse of my shadow.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">In an instant, I went from feeling strong to feeling like a pear or a bowling pin.  No matter how many <a href="http://www.girl-heroes.com/2010/02/15/weekend-workout/" target="_blank">swings</a>, <a href="http://www.girl-heroes.com/2009/05/11/houdini-sprint-workout/" target="_blank">sprints</a>, or <a href="http://www.girl-heroes.com/2009/12/07/living-room-workout/" target="_blank">squats</a> I do, I&#8217;m still a bit of a pear shape.  I started to get down on myself.   I felt like a <a href="http://www.girl-heroes.com/2009/04/15/mismatched-russian-nesting-doll/" target="_blank">mis</a><a href="http://www.girl-heroes.com/2009/04/15/mismatched-russian-nesting-doll/" target="_blank">matched Russian nesting doll</a>.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Then I looked up and saw&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Beaach111.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-2191 aligncenter" title="Beaach11" src="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Beaach111-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">The beauty of God&#8217;s creation.  I remembered life is <em>not</em> all about me.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Or my thighs.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Then&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Beach44.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2194" title="Beach44" src="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Beach44-225x300.jpg" alt="" width="225" height="300" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">(If at first you don&#8217;t succeed, try, try again.)</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Beach55.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2195" title="Beach55" src="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Beach55-225x300.jpg" alt="" width="225" height="300" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">(and again)</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">I jumped for joy.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Beach66.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-2196 aligncenter" title="Beach66" src="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Beach66-225x300.jpg" alt="" width="225" height="300" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">You want to change your pear shape?</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em>Change your perspective.</em></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Beach22.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2192" title="Beach22" src="http://www.girl-heroes.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Beach22-225x300.jpg" alt="" width="225" height="300" /></a></p>
