I hate my body I walk five miles with my dog so that I can feel confident one day, to walk out in a bikini and NOT have the urge to run and hide. To look at myself in the mirror without judging what needs to be changed quit telling myself that I have to be in love to be loved And for once, I could throw on a outfit and not change forty different times I stretch, walk, push, lift working on it So that I can have the courage to take a picture of myself without editing or changing it, And actually keeping it Instead of throwing it away

Many women including myself struggle with image at times! We are all beautiful, just realizing it takes a bit. I do enjoy exercising, walking with nature really helps me think....
