Dear Body Pt. II

Dear Body, I love you and I am thankful for you. I am thankful the body image issues are now in the past and I am thankful you've been on my side ever since I decided to become healthier, more toned and much slimmer. I am thankful you're always on my side when I seem to be getting off track, and I am thankful you are always there to help me get back on track. Ever since I was little I knew one day I'd have you and now I am thankful you are mine. And I am thankful I'm always on your side too.

    Congratulations on this thankful thought! Happiness is having a great self image, no matter who you are or what you look like. An inspiration for those who made New Year's resolution to create a healthier, happier self/body.

    Leah, thanks, it really does feel good to love your body - I know because it wasn't always like that.

    I swooned. Bravo J, for putting in the effort (always uphill) and for your bravery. Your confidence is brimming and it shows, and hopefully, infectious. Stay with it and never settle!

    What I appreciate about this post is your sincerity... Your sentiment is so sincere that it does not come off as bragging. There are so many attractive people who never get past the vanity stage. But you've clearly moved past that and onto a mature sense of self love. I'm not sure if I expressed my thoughts as clearly as I wanted, but I think you get the idea!

    Oh, and your body's rockin' :D
