big & learning to feel beautiful.

loving yourself is hard.

I’m not somebody who has ever possessed a great deal of confidence. I have a low self-esteem.

I’ll be turning 25 in two weeks; I’m a size 22/24/26 depending. Most often a 24/26.

I’ve been self-conscious most of my life, I come from a family full of fat-shamers and people who completely support sizeism prejudices.  

I don’t know how to love my body, or myself… but I’d like to learn how to. I’d like to learn how to love myself, because I can’t expect anyone else to do that for me. I want to learn to accept my body for every roll, stretch mark, lump and bump that it possesses.

I want to feel confident in my own body with my own skin, instead of staring at my reflection and going “cut this, trim this, slim down here”.

I’m ready.

Let me learn to love myself.
