Some of you may think that being skinny and having “the perfect body” will solve all your problems, but the truth is it won’t. If you aren’t happy with yourself now, what makes you think you’ll be happy with yourself when you’re skinny? Because then you’ll be skinny? Because then people will judge you? People will always judge you, regardless of what your weight is. If you think people will stop making judgments about you when you reach your goal weight, you should rethink the situation.
You don’t need to be skinny to make your life better; I know that it may seem like that at times, but that’s not true. You have all the resources now to make your life better; use the resources, and stop bashing your own body.
Learn to love yourself. Learn that it’s okay to be you. Learn that it’s okay not to be skinny. There are more important things to life than being skinny. Being skinny should not be your main priority in life.
I know ‘being skinny’ is glamorized in our society, but being skinny does not equal to happiness. Being skinny does not equal to having a perfect life. If that were the case, why are there still so many people with insecurities and countless problems?
skinny ≠ happiness
I wish people would realise that.
& being skinny will not make EVERYONE love you. You’ll always have people who hate you and people who don’t like you. Oh and not to mention, being skinny won’t get you a boyfriend. If guys like you when you’re skinny they’re not worth it. They’ll most likely just want you for your body.

So I am a little overdue for an update. Its been a really rough winter for me and I am finally recovering from my skiing accident. I’ve come to a few conclusions since I started…the journey to your ultimate goal weight isn’t going to be easy and always smooth as you would like and at some point or another there WILL be things that will slow you down. The scale won’t always say what you would like. You may hurt yourself or get sick and have to allow your body time to rest. Sometimes you may even feel defeated and want to give up, but you can’t let all the factors guide you away from your dreams. There were times of doubt, and I didn’t think it was possible to lose this much weight. I still have a ways to go but I know now that I can do whatever I set my mind to… as long as you believe in yourself you can accomplish anything. I may not be where I would like to be, but I’m far from where I started and it’s beyond what I physically see in the mirror. I look at pictures of myself and I can’t believe I was really THAT big. Creating a fitspo was one of the best things I could have ever done and its from messages from all my beautiful followers that keep me going. I hope you all find happiness like I have and if you never hear it at home.. I BELIEVE IN YOU. YOU CAN DO THIS!

Lies fitblr has told me and how to combat them:
- Don't keep junk food in the house and you won't be tempted to eat it: Don't keep junk food in the house and you'll end up taking out the entire jar of nut butter with a spatula since it's the only thing around.
- Binging is because of lack of self-control: Binging is because of unresolved emotional tensions or not allowing yourself to eat what you really want, when you really want it.
- Have a cheat meal once in a while to cut down cravings: Don't put any foods off limits and they'll stop being so special.
- Don't add sugar to anything because processed sugar is BAD: If adding a spoonful of sugar to your cocoa powdered oatmeal will satisfy your chocolate craving, don't pretend that unsweetened chocolate will satisfy you.
- White flour is BAD, whole grains are GOOD: Food is not inherently good or bad. Food is neutral.
- When you feel a craving coming on, it's because you're lacking x nutrient, so eat this food: When you feel a craving for chocolate coming on, eat half a chocolate bar instead of greek yogurt, a big bowl of fruit, three pieces of ezekiel bread, a cup of nuts, and three chocolate bars anyway.
- Scrolling through pages of fitness models will motivate you to get in shape: Scrolling through pages of fitness models will cause feelings of inadequacy and self-disrespect.
- Lack of discipline and self-control are responsible for fitness failures: Depriving yourself of what you really want and getting burned out on exercise are responsible for fitness failures.
- You can look like this fit person if you stay on track: You will look like what healthy you is supposed to look like when you do exercise that makes you happy and eat foods that make your body AND mind feel good!
