Damn, it is hard. I could be talking about life...... school, work, friends, family, boyfriend, girlfriend.... yes in many ways, I mean those. These things are so hard. Life is difficult. But for me, sometimes, I mean, my eating. Some wise person once said, "Every calorie is a war." That is so true. The actual actions of restricting may not be there. I may no longer not eat. To eat or not to eat, that is no longer the question. The question may be what to eat. And this affects my body image. The thoughts of, will I ever not think of myself as ugly? I now not I am not ugly. Am I beautiful? Nah, hardly. But I have come a long way to think of myself as not ugly. I am average looking, average build. I am certainly no beauty queen. You will never call me conceited. That just is not me. Sometimes i will look in the mirror, and say, hey why can't I be prettier, but sometimes I will also say, hey, I look alright today. You know what, at some point , you just need to say, there will always be someone thinner, prettier, smarter than you, and hey, guess what, there's also, chubbier, uglier, dumber people, so what? It does not matter. At the end of the day, you're you. I try to tell myself that anyway.












Yay good for you! It doesn't matter how other people perceive you if you don't have confidence in yourself! I'm so glad you can be honest and just love and accept yourself for who you are. Society should really be more like that.
Well that was a nice message to leave us with! These kind of entries can sometimes be so depressing, but you've got a more positive outlook on things, which is awesome.
