I Really Hope You...

I really hope you find the strength inside of you to love yourself. No one deserves to not be happy in their own skin, to not love themselves or be able to find fulfillment in themselves. To define your self-worth by a number on a scale? I can’t even imagine how empty that must be. I sincerely, truly hope that one day you can find those things and realize that being skinny won’t automatically make you love yourself, or find you happiness. Fat? It’s just an adjective. Melting away the fat won’t melt away all your problems. Being thin doesn’t mean you no longer have room for all the self-hatred you seem to carry around. It just means you’ll be unhappy and hungry — and who wants that?

I certainly don't want that!
Hmm maybe I need to read this 400 times a day?

Progress.

  1. Wow I love this so much! I hope you don't mind if I steel it and post it to my tumblr! So many people need to hear this because it's so true, " Melting away the fat won’t melt away all your problems."
