I’m currently trying to lose weight through exercising and dieting. At a frame of 5’3 and weighing approximately 160lbs I have an average build. But why does that number affect me so much, the moment I saw 160 I freaked out, doctors say I’m healthy and to not be concerned. But 160 has started to define me, I don’t want to be 160. I want to have a flat stomach, be able to go outside in a bikini and not feel self conscious. I want to feel comfortable in my own skin and stop comparing myself to friends who were dancers and cheerleaders. However I lack the discipline to continue the diet and exercise. I lack the determination because I want to be comfortable in my body no matter what weight. Society has dictated that my body isn’t desirable and only women who are size 0-4 are beautiful. I want to feel beautiful but I also love food with all my soul. Quite frankly I’m in need of support.

Confidence comes from within. You need to shut out what you think societies expectations are of you. I have to work on this as well.
Just be good to you. Eat yummy healthy and well balanced meals, workout and try not to think much about the number on the scale. Focus more about your health and feeling comfortable with what you see in the mirror. Compliment yourself and learn to love your body.
