I have had it. If I see another post about quick fixes, pills to take, or trash talking about their own body my head will explode. What are we doing to ourselves?
No more excuses. No more "I won't try because I will never be...".
Get off your ass and MOVE. Fuel your body with usable food that expires. Stop looking towards air brushed, surgically altered, emaciated photos of celebs for a personal goal. We will never reach it because it isn't real. What we will do is become a depressed, defeated, self deprecating example for our kids. Our kids see pieces of their parents when they look in the mirror. If we continuously bash ourselves in front of our children what are we teaching them when they look in the mirror and see that person? What are we teaching our boys about the postpartum body? What are we teaching our daughters about the female form? It is amazing. It forms LIFE. The cost of that miracle leaves marks. More miracles = more marks.
There is no perfect. There is no easy fix. What is beauty? Self respect. Working towards the best version of YOU. That pursuit of a healthier lifestyle makes you beautiful. If anyone tells you any differently - let me know and give me some contact info for that person.
