From people who came through it
“for anyone starting with the mirror stuff: it starts with one comment and then it lives in your head rent free, which is rude. what helped me was noticing how much time I gave to strangers on Instagram and how little to Clive or Kemar or my own lunch. I am not fixed, not even close. But I stopped weighing myself before work. small. do one small thing that is yours and not about how you look, even if it is just eating the chicken with the skin on.”
keisha_wolf93 · been through body image and self-worth“I was where you are eighteen months ago. It was feeling like a fraud at work and I couldn't see past it. Last month I had people round for dinner. From someone who gets it.”
moussagreen96 · been through body image and self-worth“If you're at the start of this, I won't pretend it's easy. The first few months were the worst of my life. But I'm writing this from the other side, and some days now I forget to be sad. Lean on whoever offers, even if it's awkward. People want to help. Go slowly.”
Shannon from Des Moines Y · been through body image and self-worth“i know it feels like you're alone in this, but you're not. i've been where you are, hating my body, feeling like a fraud. the first step is telling someone, even if it's just one person. for me, it was my partner and then a dietitian. it's not easy, and some days are still crap, but it does get better. be patient with yourself. you deserve to be happy.”
