Dying to be Perfect

Now, you’ve also got people, mostly women, who turn to crazy dieting and then unfortunately, eating disorders.  Diet is not in my vocabulary.  In my book, it’s eating healthy, exercising, drinking lots of water, taking my vitamins, getting plenty of sleep and maintaining happiness and a great attitude.  Not that I don’t wake up unhappy, we all are going to have bad days or not so good days.

A good part of society feels thin is in, especially for women to be thin.  To me, thin is not in!  Being and looking healthy is in.  Some of us are small framed, then others are large frame.  So you take what you have and work with it.  I’m small framed and I maintain a healthy weight.  I’m not out there killing myself to be thin.  I’m not out there dragging myself across hot coals to look a certain way.  It took me many years, but I have accepted myself as I am.  I have flaws like anybody else and I can be hard on myself, but I keep reminding myself that I am not perfect and I should be thankful for being alive, etc. 

Unfortunately, bulimia and anorexia still plays a major role in many peoples’ lives.  Anywhere from teens on up to much older folks.  It’s surprising how vast the age range is.  You figured it’d be from teens to maybe 30s, but nope, you have folks in their 40s on up who suffer from an eating disorder like these two.

I will say this…..I love food…..for me to say I don’t is such a lie.  So why lie…..I am not going to.  For me, it’s moderation and self control.

So lastly, my final word to everybody……..Stop dying to be perfect.  Accept who you are, be happy with yourself, enjoy life, be thankful for everyday that God gives you.  I try my best to do this everyday of my life, I really do.

We are all natural beauties………
