Even though I did not write this I still feel pretty connected to it. Yes I will admit I am a big on working out and all the while comparing myself to others. “This doesn’t look right or I wish i could just be thin like her”. In all honesty I forgot the reason I started working out in the first place all because I saw other girls, skinny and have the ‘perfect body’. But I recently reminded my self I do it because it makes me feel better. I get to release my stress and anger in a healthy way. So as you read these next few paragraphs I hope you take away a little piece of it! Enjoy:
“Sometimes I have a tendency to compare myself with other girls. Let’s be honest we all do it. A girl on my Instagram was saying how she is not eating as much everyday because she is leaning out. She works out most days too. I can’t help but feel I need to get my ass down to the gym or stop eating some stuff I enjoy. But then I caught myself on. You are not her and that is perfectly ok. It’s ok to not want a six pack or obliques or big biceps or a low body fat percentage. You are a unique individual with your own desires and goals. I am perfectly happy with my body at this minute. Sure I’m gaining weight but that’s ok. I like seeing my boobs and butt get bigger. And I’m perfectly ok with the increase in size being fat because that is clearly what my body needs.”
This is just a reminder that the next time you compare yourself to another person just remember that you aren’t them. It’s so simple. You aren’t them and what makes them happy will NEVER make you happy.
The motto of the story: Be who you want to be regardless of how she wants to be
STAY BEAUTIFUL 😘
