Today I Wore Shorts
Like for real, I went to Walmart and bought a pair of shorts, and a cool tank top. And not like those bullshit, goes all the way down to my knees, practically pants, like shorts. Like the legit, Short Shorts.
I never expected to buy these before I was fit and skinny. I do that with everything, I put everything off until I look the way I want to, which has never happened.
So, I need to say thank you to a few people who have taught me, in one way or another, that no matter how big or small or fat or whatever I am, I deserve to dress and feel however I want. My family always told us how gross fat people looked unless they were covered up head to toe. But, aubernutter, bbbenwilliamson, oatsnjen, fit-raven, jaydeyfit, thefitally have taught me to love yourself no matter what. That there will always be something we want to change or improve about ourselves but that shouldn’t stop us from living life and loving life.
Thank you all so much for showing me what confidence is, and how to really just not care what other people think or see. I feel like a huge weight got lifted off my shoulders now that I care less about how people see me.
I felt great today, I’m the biggest I’ve ever been, and I’m working to get smaller and more fit. But, for now, until I get there I’m going to stop waiting to live my own life.
