For what it is worth, I think we ALL struggle with this. I am naturally thin and still find I prefer working out at home because I don't have to go through the whole, what do I look like in the gym outfit, how does my backside look when I do xyz. The funny thing about comparison, is if you are inclined to think you are less than, you can always find something.
I try (and its a daily try) to remind myself how I am a unique package of all things. I remember complaining to a high school boyfriend about my small boobs and he said, but if you had bigger boobs you would be perfect, and who wants that. He had a point. Attractiveness is in the differences and the quirky way we come together.
I can’t tell you how badly I needed to hear this today. thank you, as always, for sharing your beautiful words with the world
Thank YOU for reading. Means so much!
Not me reading this one week after basically telling my therapist I need to work on the same thing 😅
Haha, relatable!!
