Body image.....
Now don't get me wrong who is 100% happy with their bodies...Well, Nobody,
But I'm not talking about this, I'm talking about this new-age breed of obsessive weight loss and starvation going on, literally Women (and some Men) 'dying to be thin' and picture after quote sending out the ' I'm not good enough' message online..
It's sad, It really does get to me that some people out there are on such self-destruction mode, As a Woman myself I do feel the pressure of trying to be perfect, but the older and wiser you get the more you realise that it doesn't matter what size you are, you won't be happy and you'll move onto the next so called 'flaw' to fix..! Love the skin your in...!!! I can't stress this enough to any Young Girls out there..!
Eating disorders, Diet pills ect. Is a massive problem today, By writing this blogpost I want to send out the message that....
We are ALL in the same boat, We all dislike parts of Our body, I have a list as long as my arm about things I'd love to change, but trust me you'll be happier if you accept your body, flaws and all.
Remember ladies confidence is a very sexy thing, have you ever met someone who's fairly average looking but there is something about them...?
It's the way they carry themselves, the message they are sending out to the World..!
I must add in...
Be healthy if you want to lose weight just stop eating crap and go walking..! Diet pills and becoming calorie obsessed isn't going to transform your life into a happy fairy tale, And that's what (in my opinion) I think goes wrong with body image nowadays,
If I have a smaller (bum, tummy ect ect.) I'll be happy.
If I have a bigger (insert here) I'll be happy
If I lose five more pounds, I'll be happy
NO.YOU.WON'T
I'm going to come across very non-Irish here (We hate to big Ourselves up, In the fear of being called 'stuck-up' ect.)
So I ask You, Next time you get out of the shower look at yourself, Instead of being all 'euuuu I hate my big....' And 'I wish I could change...'
Pick out something or a few if you can of things you LOVE about yourself weather it be your hair, bum, boobs, eyebrows, lips, eyes or even your toenails...Focus on it...!!!
And if you can't do that pick a skill your good at and focus on it...!!
Remember Image is a funny thing, With social media being a huge thing Today, What you see and perceive can be very distant from reality,
You know when You look at pictures via facebook, instagram ect. and think God I'd love to have His/Her ...(insert here) Just remember,
You don't know who is doing the exact same thing to You :)
