I know it really shouldn't matter, but with the changes of my body, I am feeling more like myself again. I am feeling my sexuality again. SO often that fat was like an insulation around my sexuality. It is finally lifting and I am feeling better about myself. It is tough as we age and gain weight. It is hard to bring acceptance to ourselves. It is just a journey that is difficult for women I think. I don't see men obsessing about this.
"It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell." - Buddha
We must really work on our own self talk and how we treat ourselves. I know I am extremely hard on myself. Just because I have some fat on me doesn't mean I am not a woman. I have to shed that thinking that is keeping me down and not liking myself. I have to embrace who I am, chunky arms and all!
We cannot change ourselves if we continually put ourselves down...our spirit will hold on to the real message it is getting...I will embrace my beauty...with fat or without it...I no longer want to be stuck in this space!
