i'm embarrassed to write the following sentiment but i think i better get it out there so i can consider the consequences of such an inbuilt attitude!
i'm pretty sick today, i have a cold bug, i'll be in bed most of the day and i don't really have much of an appetite...
so a little voice in my head said 'cool - might lose a couple more pounds!'
that is some fkd up shit!
why did i think that? i don't even agree with that kind of depressing self-harming self-hating BS!
that must be shit i've heard around me!
and if i've heard it and quite rightly dismissed it, what about the girls who heard it and ran with it!
sure i been losing weight - but to be healthier! being sick is not healthy!
but when i think about it i hear it all the time, people seeing weight loss as an upside of being ill! crazy!
my boyf doesn't want me to lose anymore weight and that's ok i just wanna get fit now i've shed the excess i was carrying around my waist and my hips, i feel so much better for losing the weight i have but there is such a pressure on girls, put on by themselves, to be perfect (whatever that is!)
jeez modern life is such a head fk sometimes... i'm glad i wasn't born in 1875 a peasant who lost her teeth by age 20 and died at 30 haha but i think we have our own cross to bear, we make life pretty complicated for ourselves... now where is that Kibbutz i'm moving to! haha
i think i need some broccoli...
