My Body Image Has Been Changing (:

In my past, I used to be so self-concious about what people thought of me. It didn’t matter what aspect of my life, whether it was what I was eating, wearing or doing I cared what others thought about my choice. It’s like I didn’t even have a say in my own life…I was living out other people’s lives in a different body. A very strange concept to think about.

But looking at these pictures (and every time I look in the mirror for that matter), I truly feel beautiful. I love myself inside and out and I know I’m healthy! I try to exercise every other day, but I’m a server and I’m on my feet a lot so I often times count that as exersize because my legs are tired when I get home and definitely are not in the right shape to run 2 miles.

I have lost a lot of weight over the last 8 months (14 pounds)! I can’t remember the last time I weighed 120 lbs. I feel fit internally and externally! It takes consistency though! So I have to keep up with my work outs and exercises so I remain in shape (:
