The New Year starts on Tuesday, and most people - especially women - will be making that ever-popular resolution to lose weight. The diet ads have already started: Weight Watchers is, actually, a diet, so don't be fooled; and the Discovery Health Channel's particularly misleading exhortation to "Get Your Health On" is just the kinder, gentler, less scientifically valid way to say "Hey, Fatties, you're killing yourselves!"
My resolution? To love my body. I highly suggest you all do the same.
Totally. I am all about eating healthy - but for my body. Not how the world dictates how I should eat. So, there.
ReplyDeleteI wish I could say that I am eating better and working out for health reasons alone, but mainly because I am completely unhappy with myself.
ReplyDeleteYou are really an inspiration Bmom. I wish that I could be genuinely positive about the way I look.
I'm trying.
Candi, it's taken me 25 years to get here. And I still have a lot of days where I feel like a giant ball of gross.
ReplyDeleteIt's a process, and it's often baby steps to get there.
