One of the hardest things to accept in our life is that our bodies change . There’s very few people in the world that are going to look the same in their 20’s as they did in high school, or the same in their 30’s as they did in their 20’s, and so on for the rest of their lives.
Accepting that fact and embracing that fact about your body can be tough — but not for Jennifer Garner.

Jennifer Garner is one of our favorite actresses.
We love her ability to always keep it real and honest with her fans, especially when it comes to motherhood and her three children, Violet (15), Seraphina (12), and Samuel (9).
Recently, she opened up about her experience with her post-baby body.
Jennifer explained that she would never be one of those moms who lost the baby weight right away.
“There are some incredible women whose bodies just, no matter how many babies they have, they bounce right back to that slim-hipped, no stomach,” Jennifer explained on the Happy Mum, Happy Baby podcast. “It’s incredible.”
“I have so many girlfriends who have that physique, and I’m so happy for them. I am not one of them. That is not my gig,” Jennifer went on.
“I can work really hard, and I can be really fit and I will still look like a woman who’s had three babies, and I always will,” Jennifer added.
“It’s just a body. Be grateful to it. It carried you this far. It carried babies for you. What else do you want? My goodness.”
Jennifer had previously discussed this with Ellen DeGeneres.
“I am not pregnant, but I have had three kids and there is a bump,” Jennifer told Ellen back in 2015. “From now on ladies, I will have a bump. And it will be my baby bump. And let’s just all settle in and get used to it. It’s not going anywhere. I have a bump. Its name is Violet, Sam, Sera.”
