Elle:

1) being able to clench your stomach and see your uterus isn’t abs.

2) I was a size 0 in high school. Big whoop. You’re fat now, nobody cares how thin you were last time lol

3) This is body positivity/acceptance that you will quickly retract once you’re able to starve again and show off how fast you bounced back. Based on this post, you have no right to brag about your post partum weight loss so you better not be “showing off” after baby.

How can she claim the importance of body positivity in the same post where she says pregnancy is like being overweight because you’re in the wrong body and it wasn’t installed correctly?? What the actual fuck?? I hope a plus size woman replies and says “I’m overweight and I feel completely myself in my body.”

Leave it to Elle to make a completely off-colour post!! Also love how she’s reminding us about her abs hahahahaha.

Does she not realize how ridiculous, out of touch and absurd her comments are??

“I have cellulite for the first time in my life”. Clearly it’s bothering her that she had to mention this.... but I thought you were loving your current body Elle???

She also writes how she’ll bounce back to her old body at her own pace. Sounds like she’s trying to convince herself here.

Her comment about how being overweight feels like you’re in someone else’s body is so insensitive and shows how she can’t relate or put herself in other people’s shoes. That’s a lack of empathy Elle, not a preach about body positivity!!!

How does she miss the mark every single time, she really needs to hire some professionals to edit her posts and videos. That women should not be in charge of her own comments. There’s one thing to not “have a filter” and say what you think but she needs to THINK AT LEAST FOR A SECOND before posting something.

Also, PSA for Elle but your side abs are the result of under eating and does not mean you have some super, hardcore midsection. You haven’t had real abs since you were in your 20’s and a TIU GIRRRRL. Lots of women still maintain side abs during their pregnancy so why are you comparing yourself to them?

Jesus Christ, she’s acting like she’s some 50 year old women who’s the oldest person ever giving birth to BABY GIRL. She’s clearly blaming her AGE for her getting fat and eating carbs all day.

For anyone counting: she used the word ABS four times in her post. Obsess much?!!

Her own insecurities are written all over that post and does not speak “body positivity” to me at all. She’s only jumping on this body positivity train (which is so 2018 by the way) because now she’s fat. Yet according to Elle, she’s not fat she’s just SWOLLEN.

Also, all of the fitness trainers (ie. Kayla Itsines) I follow on Instagram who are pregnant are not obsessing over their water retention and changing bodies as much as Elle is.

Rant over...

Or where she said being overweight is “inarguably unhealthy” or something along those lines. No Elle. No.

I have SO many questions. If she’s so secure and happy, why did she only post full body shots weekly BEFORE she got chubs? Shouldn’t she still be posting her normal weekly full body shot?

Or when she used to post herself working out pregnant (flexing!) and say “no excuses!” But now swelling and HG are ok excuses? There ARE valid reasons not to work out, but she’s always preached there aren’t.

She always says healthy good makes her FEEL SO GOOD ... so why is she eating junk? Just admit that sometimes junk food is tasty. But she used to swear that junk food makes her feel so awful.

PICK A LANE WOMAN

I almost replied because that post bothered me so much but I knew she’d probably get offended and block. But I’ve been pregnant. I’ve been overweight. I’ve been both simultaneously. They are NOT the same.

When you’re pregnant, you’re “allowed” to get fat. People don’t judge you gaining weight. The only person judging Elle right now, is Elle herself. She is clearly not comfortable in her skin this pregnancy. She is so
Butt hurt that she isn’t carrying the same as the other two pregnancies that I predict, she will starve herself once she’s given birth so she get back to a place where she is comfortable.

When you’re overweight, you don’t always feel like your
Body is foreign to you. Sometimes I care. Sometimes I don’t. Don’t put words in the mouth of a group of people you've never been part of.

And the way she wrote it so matter of factly. I just want to smack her smug face.

Also, how would she even know what being overweight feels like? She has never been overweight! Yes, pregnancy can feel very weird sometimes but it's certainly not the same as being overweight. For one, overweight people have generally put on their weight relatively slowly and therefore are more likely to be used to their bodies, whereas with pregnancy most of the weight/belly comes on within only four or five months, so yeah, it's going to feel weird!

I think Elle looks fine. She may have gained weight, but it's because she needed to for her body to be healthy during pregnancy. Women who start out underweight are advised to gain more weight during pregnancy than those who start out overweight. I started out my pregnancy 20 or so lbs. overweight and am now 32 weeks and have only gained about 7 lbs. over my pre-pregnancy weight (plus gained back another 7 lbs. I lost during the first trimester). Everyone is different!

Love how she wrote URGENT on it and then of course made an insta story to tell us she made a post. “TRUST ME YOU NEED TO READ THIS”

Okay, Elle. Chill. I’ve never seen someone work so hard to direct traffic.

OKAAAAY! Elle’s new instapost.... so many thoughts.

1. why do you have to point out that you have abs in two of the pregnancy photos? Why? It’s so strange and indicative of your body/thinness obsession
2. In the 4th photo, the way she is angling her foot is so awkward and OBVIOUS that she is trying to create the appearance of a massive thigh gap. Which is also indicative of her obsession with being scrawny. Elle, please bring this up at therapy.
3. “Being pregnant is similar to being overweight. You feel like you borrowed someone else’s body” BITCH, WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT BEING OVERWEIGHT AND WHAT IT FEELS LIKE?!? Just one more example of how you can relate to EVERYONE because you have suffered and felt ALL things! Give me a fucking break lady!
4. “Inarguably being fit is healthier than being obese” ok... but I know an “obese” woman who runs marathons, that lady has me put to SHAME in the fitness camp, and yet... she’s obese by all standards... so actually you don’t know shit Elle.
5. I hope that mark on your stomach is the beginning of a terrible batch of unsightly stretch marks and I also hope that your varicose veins become permanent fixtures
6. You had cellulite before dumb ass. You shared a photo of your lumpy normal ass in a bikini while you and Dan were away somewhere last summer, AND YOU HAD CELLULITE! So don’t pretend for a hot minute that you didn’t and this is all new to you. You’re as basic as the rest of us, just level up and admit it. You make a fool of yourself by pretending you’re better than you are.

Also, in case any of you missed it... this is a miracle baby... not her boys though, because they were conceived the old fashioned way. This time was a miracle because she didn’t have to have sex with “the most annoying man I could find to pay the bills while simultaneously allowing me to control every aspect of his life”. We all know that’s how she feels about him!

Omg I forgot about her ass shot at St. Anne’s Spa !

She’s clearly blaming BABY GIRL for everything wrong with her. Sounds like she’s repeating the past #mommyissues

I feel like if she wasn’t this puffy and hadn’t gained this much weight during this pregnancy, she wouldn’t have been going on about body positivity.

Video recap: weds vlog she’s posting today

KIDDING GUYS she was too busy being a motivation body positive rockstar to worry about her actual content. So now she’s two videos behind.

"Inarguably being fit is healthier than being obese. When I have this baby I will begin a journey to lose the baby weight and be fit again"
So she believes she is OBESE according to this wording. It's sad really. To think how unhappy she is in her own body.
I'm not pregnant, and I'm chubbier than her (just no baby belly)... same amount of cellulite... etc. I'm not obese. No where close. Overweight? almost. But I don't give a shit about losing all of my 2nd time baby weight (baby is now 15 months). I love myself and my body, and I'm healthy.

Yea, Elle has MAJOR body issues. Honestly, she’s so swollen this pregnancy, significantly more than the other two, but in reality, she’s so average. This is so fucking normal for any pregnant person. I wish she would just embrace being NORMAL and stop trying so hard to seem like she’s so much better than the average mom. That’s honestly her biggest downfall.

[Notablogger]

So I was watching the padsicles video (don’t ask me why)and her spring clean video rolled on next. It was a collab video and she was giving an introduction to herself. Anyways this is what she said about Dan. “My husband Dan is a vet.” That’s it. She said more about her dang dog. All this to say I think she downplays his accomplishments. A lot. If my husband was a vet I’d humble brag all the time lol. For Elle, I think she realizes it takes away from her “accomplishments.”

Also guys, there’s a huge gap in her life she doesn’t address. The time from
When she moved out/her mom died and the time she met Dan. She doesn’t talk about this period a lot. I mean apparently in that time she was a hairstylist and teacher. And having sex with other guys (since she didn’t say she was a virgin when she met Dan). I wonder why she doesn’t talk about this time? Maybe she went through a rebellious stage? I mean don’t we all in our early twenties. I think it would make her a lot more relatable if she fessed up.

Elle likes to think that she was the catch in the relationship, but Dan was the real catch. He has a stable career, saves money wisely, is athletic, and seems like he is kind to people. Elle seems to think Dan's shyness is a huge downside to his personality, but he is really just humble and down-to-earth. I'm sure lots of women would be happy to have him as a husband. Not that he's not complicit in Elle's schemes, but she's definitely not out of his league or anything.

[TeachIT]

I’m shocked she hates his shyness when she has said before she’s “introverted”

I think she only cares about his shyness with how it reflects on her.
And she’s totally only being so ‘body positive’ because she’s not as fit as she was previously. If she were as fit she’d be humble bragging and posting her ‘engaged but really flexing’ pictures. It’s also what’s ‘IN’ now (today’s parent had this whole article from the birds papaya).

It’s evident that Elle changes her perspective based on what’s vogue in the moment. When being able to brag about being a Pinterest-Mom was in: Elle was totally #momgoals. When the counter of being a relatable ‘hot-mess’ mom was in: Elle was all #momlife. When getting back into shape quickly was the rage: #noexcuses #9monthsin9monthsout. Now that ‘tiger stripes’ and ‘proof I grew a human’ is in (not that it shouldn’t be). Guess who’s now ‘proudly’ wearing her cellulite and maybe a stretch mark.

Secretly I think she’s terrified that one stretch mark is about to be 50.

[TeachIT]

Praying that it’s 50 stretch marks. PRAYING SO HARD.

Notablogger- I have noticed this gap of info as well and I’m TOTALLY curious! I bet she has some super interesting stories to share that would actually make her super interesting and actually a fun human. It’s such a shame she’s so focused on her picture perfect image, which actually alienates her from people.

I’m also praying that miracle BABY GIRL leaves her mark 75 times all over Elle’s precious ABS
