Hating Your Body And Being Insecure♡

First post - Hating your body and being insecure.

....

It came to my attention that this week is National #SpeakUp week.

I think this is important becuase eating disorders and body image is in my opinion, the worst it has ever been. My question is where the hell did society go wrong?

When did they say that; Women are suppost to look like this, and be a size 0 with a thigh gap and have minimal/no flaws or whatever.

and I'm not bashing on anyone who is lucky enough to be like that! If you're naturally that skinny, then, thats awesome, embrace your natural body. What I'm saying is if you don't look like that, don't beat yourself up for it.

and lately looking like that has been ''In''. Now, you're not reading this post that has been written by someone who knows how it is to have an eating disorder, becuase I don't.

But saying that, I do have crazy big hips! And that's something that's not ''In'' right now, but I'll embrace it becuase it's not gonna change anything by hating myself, becuase I'll never look any different than I do now.

The point of this whole thing is, I don't want you girls to be messed up by this, and yes a size 0 is acceptable by the media, but a size 10 or 12+ should be accepted every day, every where.

Perfection isn't measured in pounds, but there is no such thing as perfection. Speaking for myself, I am a girl, and as a girl I know its not that easy to look in a mirror and be 100% satisfied in what I see. Girls just pick themselves apart and stuff and the more you act and feel like that, the more flaws you will see and focus on.

Natural beauty is the best beauty. God made you look a certain way becuase he knew that was how you were meant to look, and how you were meant to look is the best way you can look.

Now, I don't know about you guys, but I would rather taste the food I wanna eat every single day then to look at myself and be pleased, because I know that's never going to happen.

I know I am never gonna look the way those girls on Pintrest and Tumblr look, becuase thats my natural body and I'm not going to fight against it. We have this person set in our minds and that person is too perfect and you can never be that person, so accept it and accept you.

But forget about me, You girls or guys, whoever you may be, going through an eating disorder or if you're just unhappy, its a serious thing and I feel for each and every one of you. I'm not writing this as a random person who just wants to put a post out there to encourage you, I'm writing as a teenage girl who has felt the way you do before and I'm also writing becuase I care and I'm your friend.

It breaks my heart to see girls on instagram or whatever comment on certain celebrities photos,

"How did you loose all that weight?!"

"I wanna loose that weight."

"I skipped a meal today becuase I want to look like you do."

we should not be convinced to skip our meals!

I could just go on and on about how I hate my hips, but, complaining isnt gonna do anything about it, not eating isn't gonna do anything about it, yeah temporarily it could make me really skinny, but in the end, is that gonna make you happy?

Yes, I have my share or stories which I don't know if I'm ready to talk about openly yet becuase I'm not ready, but I did go through something.

Just remember, I'm not perfect, nobody's perfect, not even your favourite celeberities and idols are perfect..so don't try to be perfect.

Much Love, Hannah . ♡
