God I am a blogger! This is a post from a blog I did two years ago... I just fell in love with myself <3 Read and you'll understand. Crystal Renn is amazing.
Day 32: Yes, I have lost weight!
I stumbled across this article today about Crystal Renn. She is a size 12 supermodel who started out like the rest of them, too skinny unhealthy and told they're perfect by societies standards.
She changed that real fast. Turned herself into what is beautiful by realities standards...(click here for the article)
This article was called "Yes, I have lost weight" and it goes through a multitude of photos from the beginning of her career all the way to where she is today. It was very interesting the way they spun the "I have lost weight." She didn't literally lose weight, she lost the concept of weight. Something we all should do! What I have said all along, the number on the scale is BULL SHIT! Are you healthy? That's what's important! I started all this not because of the number I saw on the scale, I hardly EVER step on the scale.... I started this because I had no energy, I felt frumpy, I had issues sleeping.....
I had already drastically cut back on my alcohol intake, quit smoking, started taking vitamins and was using exercise and my Yogi tea as a way to relieve stress... but I guess I also turned to eating WHATEVER I wanted.
That is not the way to be either. So I changed my mindset. My little sister had posted yesterday a quote:
That is exactly what I have been doing and it has been working! I feel healthy now, mind, body, and soul. Life is great. And it's not because of anything anyone said or did. I didn't get a promotion, I actually got shipped to a very chaotic store which is very stressful. I didn't win the lottery. Nothing spectacular happened in my life. I just started being grateful to be me. I look in the mirror and I like what I see because of me. I did this, and to feel good about myself BECAUSE of myself is the best feeling. You should try it.
They say in the past people thought that mirrors had the ability to show you your soul..... so what does that say when you see something ugly looking back? Change your thoughts, and change your world.
