Once again, the season of summer is upon us and everyone is searching for that perfect summer swim suit! I know a lot of people don't wear bikinis, tankinis, or the like because they are afraid to show off that much skin. If it a reason of modesty, that's great and I applaud you. Certain styles of clothing aren't for some people and I think that everyone should dress in what they are comfortable in. What's the point in buying something that makes you itchy and squirmy?
So back to the topic: bathing suits and the beach bod! It has been said a lot lately that the perfect beach body is YOUR body and I completely agree with that! If you are scared to wear a bikini because you are "too big", honey, please! You will slay that swim suit and look fabulous! You don't have to be a certain size to wear a certain bathing suit (or any clothes, for that matter! Crop top?? YES MAMA!!). If you have your eye on a bikini and it is your dream to wear it, do me a favor and go buy it right now!
If you are working out and trying to lose weight to be healthier, that's amazing and I am so proud of you! It is a struggle to wake up every morning and make the choice to burn off those pounds by using weights, yoga, or cardio. Trust me, I understand! So if that is the reason you are working out, working on a better you, that is great and the right reason to do it. But if you are trying to ditch those extra pounds a month or a few weeks before beach season, hold up. Stop drinking that magic drink that is guaranteed to melt fat (I have tried it and no dice). The reasoning behind it isn't healthy. You are telling yourself that you will look gorgeous in that suit- but there are pounds to be dropped? Stop right there. You are gorgeous already and you just need to put on that bathing suit! This goes for guys, too! I know y'all out there are worried that you need to have a six pack to be a hot guy but you don't. Personally, I like a guy who has some meat on him. You don't have to slave away in the gym to get ripped, okay? Again, working out is great, but make sure you are doing it for the right reasons.
So take a moment, take a breath, and tell yourself this: "I will look amazing in that swim suit right now. As I am. I don't need to drop that weight to be gorgeous(or handsome)." If you need to repeat that multiple times or write it on a sticky note and put it on your mirror, do it.
I know you are amazing and you can do it. Have confidence in yourself and start believing that you are worth it in every way. You need to be able to see your beauty and light to be able to be confident in yourself.
So take that suit and slay at the beach! It's going to be great and if anyone gives you any problems, send them to me ;)
Love you, beebs!! Have a fun summer in your super suit!
