Mirror, mirror on the wall xoxo

Feeling uncomfortable in my own body was a nightmare. I had suddenly ballooned and I did not know what to do!!

I had lost control and felt as if I were walking around inside a stranger's body; nothing seemed to fit and my stomach was showing through my clothes!!! (Insert hand over face) I ran (let me tell the truth... lol...I walked to the bus stop and got the bus a few stops to the west end). 

...Hunting for control pants as if they were my lifeline, I found a good fit! Thank God I thought... They worked...

Control pants were not the answer, yes they covered up what I did not want to see but they did not deal with the issue. As time went on they began to hide a little less and I had to make the decision to change, the decision to be the best me I could be and hiding wasn’t the answer.


My first step was to get my mind to think long term, what were the consequences of overeating, I then had to take a good look at myself, strip out of my clothes and look at the direction my body was taking once I had done these I had to acknowledge the consequences all this had on my emotions, self esteem and self worth. It was a lot to take in but I had to force myself to do it. Doing this encouraged me to make better decisions for me, my health, body and self esteem.


Big, medium or small, boy or girl, black, white, or asain, 18, 21 or 41 if you're someone who is blasé about your health, I encourage you to take it seriously, speak to a family member or a doctor if you have any concerns because it could mean life or death. xoxo
