“I had to grow to love my body. I did not have a good self-image at first. Finally, it occurred to me, I’m either going to love me or hate me. And I chose to love myself. Then everything kind of sprung from there. Things that I thought weren’t attractive became sexy. Confidence makes you sexy.”

Thank you for sharing!.. “It is not the image without, but the beauty within that matters”.. (Author Unknown)… “For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others, for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone.” (Audrey Hepburn).. 🙂
Until we meet again..
May the sun shine all day long
Everything go right, nothing go wrong
May those you love bring love back to you
And may all the wishes you wish come true
(Irish Saying)
Awww! Thank you so much! 💖 This means a lot!
Well, health does have weight limits…
True. But it seems we have a society that expects us all to be stick-thin and looks down on even average-sized people. That’s not cool either.
I am overweight. In fact, I am quite a fat guy. However, I do not feel that kind of social pressure, perhaps because I am a man. Yes, society is still unfair with women, and many women are indirectly encouraging this unfairness.
I couldn’t agree more. Women are pressured to be pencil-thin and some just weren’t built to be a toothpick. Many people also have under-active thyroids which makes it almost impossible to lose weight. My point is that no one should judge others because of their size. I understand the health consequences of it. However, it’s never right to body shame anyone whether they’re overweight or underweight. Like you, my husband is also an overweight man, but I still love him so much and think he’s a sexy rascal! Thank you so much for your thoughts on this topic. You don’t know how much I appreciate them.
Well said. I totally agree.
Thank you so much, Sherlene. 💖
wise words! 💖💖
