I Hated Pictures of Myself

I HATED PICTURES OF MYSELF
2 years ago this would have been soooo vulnerable for me to share! Not any more.
This is me
This is my body
I have NEVER been happier or healthier. I have never loved myself as much as I do today.
I once said I would never share something like this on social media.
I've changed and grown and I decided to do this for every person who has ever cursed their body, beaten it up, dieted and wishes it looked different. To every person who hates pictures being taken and picks apart and judges their bodies.
I tried to scrub away my stretch marks and used all the creams, wraps, ointments to remove my lines and bumps.
I have struggled with body image my entire life.
Recovery from my eating disorder was one of the hardest things I have ever faced and caused me tremendous mental and emotional health struggles. 12 years alone and in silence.
I had body dysmorphia, binge and emotional eating episodes, bulimia, I yo yo dieted for years following my eating disorder. 4 years ago I still had negative body image thoughts - DAILY!
To all the women who have inspired me over the years - thank you. @loveronica22 @thebirdspapaya @bodyimagemovement @nonairbrushedmeamber @isabelladavis6 @leahelleloves @danaemercer @jaimmykoroma @thebaileyp @mikzazon I'm grateful to each of you!
If you beat your body up, if you struggle with negative body image, yo-yo dieting, binge eating, restricting, emotional eating, hating your body, not wearing shorts, hiding away, criticising your bumps, dimples, curves, lines, cellulite, hating pictures of yourself, lacking confidence then I hope my journey inspires you.
I hope you know what is possible for you.
If I can move from where I was, to beginning to heal the relationship with my body, to now loving it.
You can too. 💗
I promise you it's a journey.
It's not perfect.
but keep on going - it's worth it in the end.
Something really exciting is coming your way... keep your eyes peeled on Monday.
If you are struggling to love yourself and your body this is for you! 💗
Drop a love heart if you are committing to loving your body 💕⬇️
