I wont give up on myself!
I wont give up on myself!
This is something I’ve needed to do for a while. I’ll log onto my tumblr and still see masses of strangers reblogging my before/after from December, and frankly, I feel guilty because that’s not me. I looked like that for two weeks tops. The truth is, maintaining is a fickle creature, and you’re never going to stay at that “lowest” weight while enjoying life. I struggled to keep my body that size, measuring and counting every calorie and carb consumed, yet I’ve been eating a balance of “unhealthy” food and healthy food since January and have only gained a small amount. I no longer weigh myself, put stock into pant sizes, freak out over measurements, or compare my body and weight to other women. I’m not basing my self-worth on arbitrary numbers anymore.
For reference, though, all of those pictures are in chronological order. I gained 10 pounds from the second-to-last picture to the most recent picture. My message is this: quit focusing on the numbers, and quit getting so hung up over meeting your mind’s eye of perfection. I tried and it was costly to my social life, my self-esteem, and my sanity. There IS a balance between being healthy and enjoying life, and I’ve found it.
Favorite inspiration right here.

When I say diet I mean my daily food choices.
When I say I want to lose weight I mean I want to be healthier and lose fat.
When I say I love giraffes I mean I fucking love giraffes.
