Self acceptance and losing can happen without one sacrificing the other.

I always saw myself as ugly, unattractive, and unfuckable. This changed once I entered college last fall. I realized I was not those things at all and learned to love myself. However, I still knew I had to lose weight.

Being on campus made everything easier though. I mirrored the meals and eating practiced my fit friends had and I didn’t have the constant presence of my toxic mom causing me to binge eat, and I was moving around a lot more naturally. I didn’t have access to a scale and didn’t really drop more than ten pounds but I started fitting into all of my clothes. I went from a size 14 tightly to now fitting into a size 10/8 with breathing room. (192-180lbs, 5’3)

And now, I’m back home due to quarantine but armed with my naturally healthier eating habits. I’m finally under 180, which I thought would never happen, and now it’s all downhill from here, but in a good way.
