Embracing the Journey: From Weight Struggles to Self-Acceptance
As someone who has been “fat” all her life, I have now come to understand that working out, healthy eating and healthy living have become a lifelong journey for me.
I have been teased severally, mocked, laughed at and even publicly shamed for something I never really had control over
“Don’t eat they say, you’re fat because you eat a lot”
“Eat only veggies, you’ll lose weight drastically if you do”
I still get a lot of advice on my weight, and I myself have done some somewhat crazy stuff in the bid to lose weight.
But now, I am just letting my body do its thing.
I’ll do my best and enjoy each phase as it comes. The struggle is real and many times, I still fail at it.
So this is to let you know, you are not alone, we’ve all been there. Whether it is weight loss, or smashing life goals.
We all have our moments.
So pick yourself up and start again.
Love,
Theo.
