“Love yourself, for if you don't, how can you expect anybody
else to love you?”
Think about that quote. It's very true in every situation. My mom always says this to me, when I'm upset about not being in a relationship like alot of my friends or other people. My biggest problem in my life is not accepting myself. Waking up in the morning is a struggle for me. I act like I am a strong person but in reality Im not. Everyone is like that though. I used to cry myself to sleep because of what I looked like. Waking up in the morning saying "Why me?", "Why am I fat?", "My friends are all skinnier then me!"
I used to think its not fair. Cause its not fair in my eyes that I have to get up in the morning, watch what I eat, work out twice as hard as other people, I can't sit there in a bikini on the beach, guys don't check me out, I have to go to the plus size section of department stores, I don't like hanging out with friends during certain activities because I feel huge. Just different thoughts running through my head. Other teen girls, are skinny, pretty, don't watch what they eat, guys check them out, they get boyfriends. When is it going to be my turn?
Being me isn't easy, being a teen isn't easy period. The past year has been hell, but the saying "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger." It's true. Alot of the stuff I have been through in the past year have helped me become who I am today. Im not asking for sympathy, cause Im not. Im not blaming anyone else for the way I am, its my fault I am overweight no one elses. I have started an adventure to lose the weight. It's tough, and its difficult. I will reach my goal though. I work out everyday, sunday's I rest, but still do cardio. After I lose the weight, I'm not going to be all over guys, trying to get a boyfriend, or to impress other girls and to fit in. I fit in perfectly, I'm losing weight for my health and more importantly myself. I am proud to say I have started looking in the mirror everyday and saying "You are beautiful." And its true, I am beautiful. The reason of this post, well is for me to vent mostly. haha. Also, to show you that you need to accept yourself before anyone can accept you. Confidence is the key. Trust me. This post is kind of boring haha, but do me a favor who ever is reading this guy or girl go into the bathroom or go look in a mirror and say "I am beautiful/I am handsome." You will feel alot better I promise. Have a great night :)
