WHEN YOUR 🧠 IS A LIAR

Body dysmorphia is a real problem 😅 and it never actually goes away. I genuinely thought I was overweight in that second video and will probably look back on videos of me in my current condition in future with the same confusion.
I’m a 90s kid. I grew up in the age of the skinny model, and that was the beauty ideal. I genuinely believe that the ideals impressed on you during your puberty years stay with you forever. It took a lot for me to lose weight and when I lost it I still found myself (as you can see in the video) lost and unhappy with myself.
That’s when I realised this wasn’t about being skinny. It was about healing trauma and learning to love myself. That’s when I started prioritising my health and lifting weights.
Let me tell you.. I am so much happier now I let go of the obsession with being skinny. The biggest favour I ever did for myself was prioritising being strong and healthy and I can honestly say, I’ve never had a better relationship with my body.
