Good morning/afternoon/evening,
This is just a little blog update to let my 3 reading humans know that I am in fact still alive even though I am proving to be terrible at writing a blog. Recently though, I have been very inspired for current projects, future projects and working on my own happiness.
The current thing stopping me start a few of these projects is the fact that in less than a month my GCSE exams start, and in case any new people do read this and have already done GCSEs and know that really compared to other 'stuff' in life GCSEs aren't really a big deal - I already agree with you however I want to pass sooo projects must wait!
I am one of those people who have never been comfortable in my own skin, I always feel self-conscious in tight fitting clothes and would much rather wear a baggy t-shirt that is 4 sizes too big for me however I have decided that this summer I want to feel comfortable in shorts and a crop top. I want to see photographs of me having fun and not caring that my stomach is showing a little, because currently I don't enjoy it. This has been an issue for me for as long as I can remember, I always envy people who are happy with their figure because I'm not. Is it their fault I'm not comfortable? No, well done them for being proud of their body! Now, I am going to take more care of my body. Not just in the whole losing weight etc. but in all of it. I am going to have to live in this skin until I die so I am saying no thank you to premature wrinkles etc.
My advice to people like me is: if you want to lose weight or tone up or get fitter then do it...but do it for you! Don't do it for the satisfaction of other people, do it to please you! So you feel confident. Another thing, you see a moisturiser that you like but is 'too expensive for such a small bottle' treat yourself. If you can't treat yourself once in a while then I think it is time to give up. Do things to make you happy, I promise it will be worth it.
Update on the Lia being comfortable in own skin movement:
I went for a jog yesterday. I have come to the conclusion that I am extremely unfit and my legs are crying.
I think it is important to appreciate the little things in life and recently one of the little things that have made me smile are summer nights. I know, I know, it is only April and it isn't summer yet but in the Easter holidays my friend Katie and I had a day in town and then went and sat on some swings and watched it turn dark around us and just had a chat about everything and anything. I think it's important to do that, I am lucky to have a lot of people who I can have a laugh and a joke with but also turn to when I am sad. On this day with Katie, we went on a car drive as the sun was setting and it was a beautiful sunset so I tried to capture a photo however taking a picture in a moving car isn't always easy and this was the end result...
I couldn't leave this post with just two pictures as it is sending me crazy just thinking about it so I shall think of another topic to ramble on about for a bit to provide a picture with. Sound good? Ok.
Oooh, Katie has just helped me think of a topic 'clothes, me, food, ME' was the response I got from her. This small human also has a blog, click here for Katie's blog, and reading her posts always inspire me. She's a positive one and helps me a lot, I am eternally grateful and I don't show it a lot. So here is a selfie to say thank you.
Hopefully this is the start of Lia-actually-blogging-regularly-and-being-a-good-blogging-person however I am not promising anything. I'm going to steal Katie's 'Letter to my Future Self' so hopefully that will be posted one day this week.
Until then,
Goodbye Earthlings x
