I lead a healthy lifestyle because it’s sensible and I care about my body, not because I’m trying to lose weight. I don’t believe that the things that are “imperfect” about my body are wrong. They are simply different from what society insists is iconically beautiful. Like everyone, there are moments when I might feel down on myself when compared to a girl in a magazine, but the point of this post was to be thankful for the body I have right now, as it is, curves and all.

I mean, only a few will admit what’s wrong with their body. Good thing that you are living a healthy and proactive life that will help you loose weight in the long run. Kudos to you! 🙂

It really goes along with the victim-blaming that we’re seeing within our society today (although it’s been in play for much longer, I’m sure). Instead of solving the issues by targeting the causes of them, it’s easier for us to blame people for becoming fat, depressed, raped, or abused. You’ve made me grateful for my curves today, too 🙂
