How do i deal with this?
Okay, so around here weight seems to be a BIG deal. Well not so much weight as size. Either you're too thin or too fat. How do i deal with this, starting with me. How do i build up my self-asteem about how i look and ignor others comments about me? THANKS SO MUCH!
Firstly, do yourslef up so that YOU feel you look good!, Do your hair nicely,makeup, dress to impress. I Garuntee doing this, and pampering yourself will make you feel SO much more confidant, it helped iwth me :)
When you say weight is a big deal around "here" what exactly do you mean? You know this is a weigh-management site right lol
Just don't listen to the people who judge you for your looks. Before you digest their insult or whatever remember that they get their ideal bodies from air brushed photos and super models who most likely have eating disorders.
Thats just what I wanted to put out there. OK here is some advice:
When you look in the mirror, don't look at what's wrong with you, think of all of the things you like about yourself.
Also, try not to compare yourself to other people. Even though you may feel better after you look at a girl who may be less pretty or whatever, its really devastating to then look at a girl who you think is better looking then you. Well, that's all I got.
Hope that helped :)
What I'm going to say will sound pretty lame, I bet.
What makes anyone else so IMPORTANT that what they have to say should crush your self esteem? What do they have to do with it? Who are they? What did they do that makes them amazing? Why do they get to determine how you feel, or how comfortable you are with your looks?
You have to be confident in the fact that you don't deserve to be treated rudely or commented about. You don't deserve it, so don't take it. You're beautiful. My "don't **** with me" attitude basically developed because I realized not that I was thin or gorgeous, but that whether I am or not, what people say about me shouldn't shake me up. It's my life and they aren't important. It's easier said than done...but you don't deserve to be treated badly. That's the fact.
I still hate my body, but anyone who tells me they dislike how I look can get out of my face. It's not their body to judge.
NOTE ABOUT DEVELOPING SELF ESTEEM: do what you're good at, or simply what you enjoy. it'll raise your self-perception, raise your mood, and when you're feeling low it'll take your mind off of people. I play guitar, write, and read. even watching TV helps sometimes when you just don't want to lift your head up.
it's not all about realizing how great you are, it's about realizing these people aren't better than you.
First of all, your voice is the only one that really matters! with that being said, this helped me years ago to get past the "other voices"... every morning and every night look in the mirror and say out loud "I LOVE YOU" to yourself. Even though it may seem strange and feel uncomfortable, do it any way. Choose one thing on your face that you love ( eyes, nose, etc. ) and tell yourself that that one thing is beautiful.Say it every day at least once a day. When you feel really good about that one thing, choose another thing and continue this.This helps to record positive messages in your head so that you get built up from the inside out. Also you can tape to your mirror positive mantras so that you see them all the time...more reenforcement. As far as weight and other peoples comments... your weight is not you. It's a PART of you. YOU at your core are who you are. Ponder that for a while and see who you are ,Not your career, not your family or your bank account not even your thoughts... Who are you at your core? when you look at yourself as a beautiful wonderful being...You will begin to not care about those comments.Maybe get some new positive friends? Build a supportive family around you. Hope this helps.
when someone's mean to you, just remember that you can do something about your weight, but they'll always be a jerk [: that's what i tell myself when people make fun of me. it usually works.
