Happy Sunday, FS! The start of a new week. A chance to set new goals, recommit to past goals, start fresh. I'm continuing on my journey to health and fitness with exercise, eating well, and drinking lots of water. Strength training is going well. Completed 6 days last week. Planning to change up my routine by picking some new exercises. Keep it interesting. Also working on listening to what my head says about my body. It's not always correct!! I'm working on saying kind things about my body. For too many years my family told me I was fat. Told me I had thunder thighs. That hurt and has made a big impact on how I see myself and how I feel about my body. Hope you have a great day!

I also have a distorted view of my body because of hurtful comments like that. Thunder thighs run in my family and they never let me forget. I have changed my outlook and am embracing my curves. I'm glad you have changed your outlook as well. People don't realize how much havoc they wreak on our mental health and image of self

I wish there was a way to be able to instill in people the attitude of why would I even care what these people think or say. All of my aunts on my dad’s side were short and squat and my dad used to tease me and say that I would look just like my aunts when I grew up because I also am short. He didn’t say it to be cruel but to tease me. My response was, “bet me”. He would have lost that bet

Riffing off of what @Kenna wrote, I was always the rebel in the family. If my parents said I was a certain way or was doomed because of genetics, I would make it my mission to prove them wrong. After a while I realized they were using reverse psychology intentionally to motivate me. So some people people are beaten down with comments and others rise to the challenge. I don’t know you, but I do know we are all capable of change, and it starts with setting goals and boundaries.💚👁️🏆

I needed to hear this... I have had some major health issues and have been on and off medicine including steroids. I'm up 16 lbs since December and very discouraged

Good for you! The only person who has the right to define who we are is ourselves.

I heard it said somewhere that if you wouldn't speak to a beloved child or a dear friend that way, you shouldn't speak to yourself that way. I try to live by that. And yep, we can do this! 😃

I'm thankful for each of you and your stories! Thank you for sharing and for your support. I hope we all find our way to loving our bodies, for all they have done and will do for us. There is a song, Victoria's Secret, that speaks to the heart of loving our bodies and all the negative messages we hear from everywhere. One of the lines says:
"I wish somebody would've told me that thighs of thunder
Meant normal human thighs"
That hit me hard. My body is amazing because of the things it does, who cares if my thighs jiggle 🤣
