The perfect me!

While determined to slim down enough to feel comfortable in a swimming suit, I realized the vision I had of myself was with someone else body. I listened to a talk by Elder Holland telling us to escape our culture’s obsession with comparing, competing, and never feeling we are “enough”. It made me realize the goal in my head is of a perfect body, not MY perfect body. So I did a good thing today and rid my mind of the world's perfect weight and proportions and instead replaced it with my perfect weight and my perfect proportions. More importantly the vision of myself is no longer a swim suit model body with my head photoshopped in there but what I can look like if I lowered by body fat. In line with Brittney's comment I want feel good in my own skin and not the dream of someone else's.
