Body stuff

Make nice with your body, because who really needs more enemies?

Tuesday, November 6, 2007

Stop beating up on yourself and start realising that you are beautiful just the way you are. Sure this sounds easier said than done, but not when you take into account these little pearls of wisdom.

What you see on TV, in the movies, on music clips and in magazines is not always what you get. Remember, there's a lot of airbrushing, make-up and special diets that go into making those girls look so hot.
Your body isn't the reason you're having a bad day, so don't put the blame on it.
A dirty look from someone else should never influence how you feel about your appearance. Chances are they're jealous of you or just in a foul mood.
The secret to a hot body is respecting it. Feed it well, work up a sweat every now and then and give it a break when it needs it.
You wouldn't tolerate anyone else saying nasty things about you, so there's no reason to let that nasty voice in your head do so.
You know that girl who you would swap your brother for her body? Well, there’s no doubt that she has a few things she hates about her body too. Remember, the grass is always greener.
It's not the end of the world if you give in to temptation and allow yourself to have one too many slices of pizza.
You always see yourself differently to how others see you, and most of the time this is in a negative light. Have someone you trust, like your mum or your best friend, give you an honest critique.
Comparing yourself to your best friend or friends does nothing but make you resent them. Everyone is different, has different flaws and different features.
It's a given that everyone will gain a few inches during winter. So, don't beat yourself up about it. As soon as the warmer weather hits, you will shed the kilos.
