✨it’s okay✨

Today is a proper Monday. One of those days when you just want to stay in bed and do nothing.

I forgot to pack lunch, my car needs fuel asap, I did not loop my belt through all the loops and walked into work all wonky, and now I wanted to cancel an update on my computer, and it decided just to start it anyway. So now we wait. And all that before 8 am.
I want to go back to bed, and that’s okay.

I am thankful for my job, grateful I have a car, thankful that I could choose my outfit this morning, and just generally grateful to be here.

But it’s totally okay to have shitty days. These days don’t make you any less thankful for what you have. Good things can be annoying too. So we navigate through these shitty days and look forward to better ones.

✨don’t be afraid to try something new✨

I have wanted to start kickboxing for years now. I always wanted to go and try, but I was so scared to be judged for my weight or not being fit enough. So I never went.

But as I am learning to live my life unapologetically, I have decided to get over myself and just start. So I did some research and found a studio that offered all women’s classes for beginners, and off I went. I went for the first time last week, had a second try out on Tuesday and fell in love with the sport.

Not going to lie, it’s exhausting and challenging. But I enjoy it so much. It’s such a great feeling to finally have found a way to move my body and enjoy it.

Not all sports are for everyone, and that’s okay. Go and find something you love, something that feels right for your mind and body, and something you want to keep doing. And then go do it. Whatever it is!

✨personal growth is beautiful✨

If you had told my teenage self that I will eventually go out showing my arms, wearing shorts and crop tops, living my life unapologetically, not despite my weight but with my weight, I would probably have laughed in your face. There is no way anyone can love someone with a body like this, especially not me myself.

It turns out this body can very much be loved. Not just by me, but by others too. It turns out this body is not a battleground for social beauty standards, not a target for hatred. This body is my forever home. In fact, the only forever home I will ever have.

So I have decided to be gentle with myself, to learn about myself and my body, to see doctors when I feel sick, to do my best to keep my forever home happy and healthy.

And to no surprise, happiness and health do not solely depend on your weight. Shocking, I know. What matters is your mindset and the way you treat yourself and your body.

So take care of yourself the way you would take care of others because you deserve it too.

✨focus on yourself✨

I heard you were focusing more on yourself and worrying less about everyone else.

I think that’s beautiful.

✨ things not to point out ✨

You should never point out things people cannot change within a few seconds. Do I have something on my teeth? Please let me know! Have I gained weight? I almost certainly know already, and it's none of your business anyway.

So please never point out things like body hair in places you are not used to, acne, scars, crooked teeth, body size, stretch marks, or anything else people can't do anything about at the very moment.

While this might be something that stands out to you, people already know about these things. They live in the body you are talking about. They know about their stretch marks and about their teeth being wonky. And while it may surprise you, they might even actually like their body this way.

Because bodies are different, and that's great. Differences don't make us any less worthy of love and admiration. They make us unique and wonderful.

You should give a fuck. You really should. But the only about things that set your soul on fire. Save your fucks for magical shit.

By @kenziebrenna

Honestly, I say “I don't give a fuck!” a whole lot. Because there is a lot of things that are not worth worrying about. It's such a waste of time and energy.

Save your fucks for things that matter. For your loved ones, things you are passionate about, your hobbies, and especially yourself.

There is no use in wasting your energy for unnecessary things. Save your fucks for things that matter.

✨beauty and weight don't correlate ✨

Beauty isn’t measured in pounds.
Weight does not dictate your worth.
There is not, weight limit on beauty.
You are beautiful just the way you are, skinny or fat.

✨ Reminder ✨

You don't need to starve yourself to feed a society that will never fully accept you, anyway.

By @hol_wynne

As fat people, we are often told that losing weight will solve all of our problems. Strangers, friends and family, and even doctors often think that only our weight is the problem. It’s not.

More often than not, society will find something else that is ‚wrong‘ with you and will try to change that too. You cannot win. You can never be what society wants. There will always be something ‚wrong‘ with you.

Only that there was never anything wrong with you in the first place. No matter your weight or any other thing people may criticise: you are perfect just the way you are. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

Don’t let people tell you what you are allowed to look like, wear, or behave like.

You are perfect just the way you are.
Don’t let anyone take away your happiness. You deserve to feel at home in your body and love yourself just the way you are.

✨ you have reached a self-care checkpoint ✨

If you haven't done it already:
- drink some water
- get some fresh air even if you just open a window
- text a friend and let them know you are thinking about them or need support
- take a break, physically and mentally, put your phone away and take some time for yourself
