Body Positivity
What do you love about your body?
How has it shown up for you?
I do not love my body anymore. It is broken down, overweight and the fat just doesn't want to leave. I don't have good days and bad days, they all suck. I just try to hide my feelings best I can and go on.
Hi
. Welcome to the community. Given how you feel, I'm really glad you found us and that you felt comfortable sharing. That's what we're here for -- to offer support and a safe place to vent.
Have you always felt this way about your body or are you having more bad days than usual lately? I ask because it's normal to dislike your body at times. We've all been there. But those feelings can be debilitating if they are always present and they can actually feed that cycle of impossibility, making you believe that nothing can change.
Have you ever talked with your doctor about how you feel? Your doctor might be able to help you with weight loss, if you are interested and if you think it would make you feel better. It's important to be honest about what you think might work though. If you have tried dietary changes and exercise in the past and been too overwhelmed, say so. These days, there are lots of prescription options that can help, including inexpensive appetite suppressants. What felt impossible even a year or two ago, is much more achievable now.
Regardless, we are here for you.
Sending the very best of wishes your way. - Lori (Team Member)
Nothing makes me confident or not confident. Like everything else not good, no bad not anything, just is.
I don't understand why anyone feels any way about much at all. Okay a funny joke or a sad movie or whatever but, 99.999% of everything just is how it is.
No feeling this or that way or doing this or that changes how the world is.
We are born through no choice of our own, we have to survive however we can, then we die. Same for every human and animal there is.
It just is how it is, we just are how we were born, same as any animal. No feeling will change genetics.I never thought of it that way, but that is an interesting perspective, and I imagine it can be a very healthy one. Thanks for sharing. 😀 - Lori (Team Member)
