It's your write

peacockfeatherz:

Pause.  Think for a minute: will you really be truly happy if you lose those last ten pounds?  The answer is no.  You won’t be happy.  You’ll be wondering why you still look like you did when you were ten pounds heavier and why you’re old clothes still fit and why you don’t look as skinny as you thought you’d to be.  Then you’ll be wondering how you’ll maintain your weight, since you’ve been slowly starving yourself for the past few months, eating nothing but protein and vegetables.  You’ll be exhausted and you’ll wonder how many more days you can spend three hours running while you’re still on your six hundred calorie diet.  You might even try diet pills… or worse.  They won’t work, though.  They won’t give you what you really want.  You won’t be happy until you accept your body for what it is.  Look in the mirror and see that your body is your body and you need to take care of it and be kind to it and love it.  It is yours.  You need to take care of it.  It’s your responsibility.  Treat your body with respect.  Learn to love yourself.
