Birds of a Feather

In 2012, there were a few curviebirdies that I feel were an inspiration to us all.  So I wanted to dedicate this post to the positive curviebirdies in Hollywood!

CurvieBirdie of the Year:  Jennifer Hudson

Before 2/2011

 

After 2/2011

This talented diva lost over 80 lbs and has kept it off for almost 2 yrs!!!  She decided to get healthy after having her son David.  She is the spokesperson for Weight Watchers and an inspiration to all CurvieBirdies that want to loose the weight!

 

CurvieBirdie of the Year:  Christina Aguilera

 

Christina told it best when she said to her record label that, “I am tired of being a skinny white girl!”  After years of trying to stay thin, the singer decided to do what she always wanted to do.  That is to just be happy with herself and her weight.  Hats off to this lady!!!

So if you had to pick a CurvieBirdie of the year, who would you pick?  Would either of these two women make your list?

Something to Chirp About: Vision Boards

Happy Friday CurvieBirdies!  I wanted to talk to you today about something that I have done that is very personal and inspirational to me.  On New Years day, I was given the opportunity by Babyshopaholic to make a Vision Board.  At first, I thought this was kinda stupid, but after I thought about it I decided to do it.

I must tell you that this board is some awesome!!  I sat down and thought about it and decided that putting down my goals could be very inspirational.  I already told myself that I wanted to do better with making some healthier choices, but that is not all I wanted to work on.  I think that putting your goals in written/picture form makes it easier to keep them.

So some things that I added to my board was making healthier choices, found love and getting it to the next level, finding a great career, and building a stronger relationship with God.  I put this on the wall in my bedroom so that it is the last thing I see at night and the first thing I see in the morning.

2013 is a year of change for this CurvieBirdie, and I wanted to share with you my most inner personal thoughts and goals for this new year.  I have never done anything like this, nor have I ever made any new year resolutions.  So here is my vision for myself.  I truly hope you ladies and gents think about making one of these for yourself!

So what do ya'll CurvieBirdies think about making a vision board?  Do you think that you will make one?
