Loving your body and yourself is not an easy task. Especially when we’re presented with so many “unrealistic” images of what a “perfect body” should be like. Social media is a crazy thing. It’s something that most people now have. A majority of us probably have an Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, or even all three. We spend so much time scrolling through feeds and liking photos. At the end of the day it‘s important to remember that social media only shows a glimpse of people’s lives. Social media makes it so easy to forget that.
Following accounts that make me inspired and motivated keeps me on going. It reminds me that being obsessed about how I look 24 hours a day 7 days a weeks is not what life is meant to be like.
