Gross

Today's People.com poll is "Who has the best body after baby?" The nominees are Halle Berry, Nicole Kidman, Jessica Alba, Nicole Richie, Gwen Stefani, Christina Aguilera, and Jennifer Lopez. I'm grossed out. As if these women weren't already obsessed and starving themselves so they look the way they're "supposed" to, now we get to compare them--and vote on it! Disgusting.

I actually didn't vote, Megs. I have, in the past, participated in the People.com polls--but this one irritated me. I, too, struggle with the post-baby body (lo these two + years later)--and will never ever return to my previous form w/o surgical intervention. I'm irritated that the media has turned the post-baby rebound into a contest.

Of course, I would pick Gwen--but just because she's awesome (no matter what her body looks like).
