Weight Gain Denial Affirmations - Declining Mobility Edition
🍒 It’s normal to struggle to reach to pleasure yourself. That’s what toys are for.
🍒 Getting in and out of chairs isn’t supposed to be seamless. It’s perfectly healthy to need to use your arms to push up off a chair or out of bed, especially any that are lower to the ground.
🍒 Car manufacturers are making them smaller - it isn’t your fault that cars just aren’t built for humans of a regular size.
🍒 Losing your breath after short walks is just a sign you’ve worked hard and need a little more rest, so be sure to take a few hours at least on the couch after this.
🍒 Elevators are there for a reason - nobody actually finds stairs easy.
🍒 The walk from the car to the store is difficult. It’s totally normal to get a bit winded doing it. It just means you should park closer next time.
🍒 Your knees, hips, or back being sore after walking anywhere means you’re doing too much. Take it easy, take seated breaks, and ask for help when you need it.
🍒 Sitting to tie your shoes is the standard thing to do. Nobody finds it easy to tie them standing, and if it’s a bit difficult sitting, that’s just your sign to treat yourself to a new pair of slip ons and get some rest.
🍒 Its healthy that you notice your heart rate increase when walking from you bedroom to the kitchen. That’s just your body responding to movement.
🍒 10 minutes standing is no short time. It’s important to remain seated for a few hours when standing tires you.
🍒 They make seatbelts far too small these days. It’s not a reflection of your body, manufacturers just try to cut costs by not using as much material.
Rest assured that it’s perfectly normal to struggle with these things. Treat yourself today, you’ve worked hard and you deserve it 🌹
