Sometimes I come across old pics of myself where I’m just like, got damn. This was taken a couple years ago. I was 50 pounds lighter then and had a navel piercing that I’d wanted for years growing up. My body has since rejected the piercing (I’m allergic to everything lol), and of course, I’ve gone down the typical rabbit hole of criticizing my appearance and feeling less than because of my larger body. I try to remind myself that I’m still hot as hell these days, and especially that my worth as a person isn’t tied to my weight or how I look. I remind myself that even when I was this tiny, I somehow thought I was fat and ugly. Self-perception is a wild thing that seems to fluctuate so easily. Here’s to having more healthy feelings of self-worth, and a little reminder to you as well as myself that we’re all bad asses regardless of our sizes and appearances. Happy Friday 💖
