I’ve spent years not fully comfortable in my own skin. Even when I’ve been lean enough to have visible abs, I still wasn’t happy. I still compared myself to others. I still felt like I wasn’t quite enough.
Comparison really is the thief of happiness.
No matter how fit or lean you get, if your self-worth is tied to how you look compared to others, the goalposts keep moving. You never quite arrive.
I have to really work on stopping that negative cycle — shifting my focus from appearance to strength, health, energy and self-respect. It’s not easy, but it’s important if I want to feel at peace in my own body.
We all deserve to feel at home in our own bodies — not at war with them.
