While many of us are carrying a few extra pounds around the middle, we're much more likely to stuff it into a pair of Spanx than let it fly for the world to see.
Not Toronto mom Erin Keaney, who has exposed her muffin top and penned a rap song dedicated to post-pregnancy body.
Keaney told NBC Today that she has two daughters, aged seven and ten, and said she wanted her video to be a counterpunch to all the magazine photos of celebrities who appear to bounce back to their pre-baby size within weeks of giving birth.
“It’s not a realistic view of females' bodies,” said Keaney, adding that her 10-year-old already notices celeb photos in magazines.
“We don’t talk about thin or fat in our house. We just talk about what your body does for you. I wanted my girls to know that I love my body."
Here are some of the lyrics to the 'Muffin Top Rap':
The next time you wave your hands in the air,
Don’t be shy, let it fly, there's no need to be scared
Your muffin top just wants to come out
There's nothing wrong, sing this song, then start to shoutBounce, carbohydrate, bounce
My muffin top
Bounce, carbohydrate, bounce
Embrace your mother load, we got to lead the way
Teach our kids to be confident in their bodies
Turn down the voice of peer pressure
We come in all different sizes, height, weight and colors.
