Do you ever have those days where you have a panic attack that really attacks your brain. Go to sleep after 1 hour of deep breathing ane STILL wake up feeling like you did somthing wrong, your life is a mess & you wanna die?
...yeah, i am currently in this state.
TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE. Zuckerberg showed me a picture i posted 2 years ago, this day, in one of my favorite dresses ever... you know, feelin myself. So it prompted me to wear that certain dress today!
Except thats where this all took an even worse turn!
Here is the photo. 2 years ago today. I look good. The quality of this physical picture is off, i look happy. But am i happy?
This is today. Same dress, basically same pose... BETTER PHONE QUALITY. The moment i saw this... i wanted to die. I nitpicked it all.
-ive gained weight
-it doesnt look the same on me
-who is this person? Its not the same as the other person in the photo from 2 yesrs ago

REALITY CHECK!
1 year ago, my husband started buying my fishnets cause i started playing around with my style... i then ended up with about 100 pairs and changing up the way i look with my style of clothing and make up, a way that was truly me. Wearing whatever i wanted, weather that be layering, belts, fishnets, and being austentacious AF... i did it. Because i was dressing my body the way my mind wanted.
That girl in the FIRST photo... is stuck. She doesnt know how to get out and express herself.
But it all started with a pair of fishnets.
HOLLLLLLD UP! i aint done.
Simple photo, poseing like everyone does??? That is NOT me.
Laughing
Silly faces
Smirking cause im hot AF

Please dont dress how 90s, 00s media told us to. Please dont listen to people who critisize your style or body. Please dont listen to the hurtful comments and humans in the world.
Do listen to your heart. Do listen to your worth. Do listen to WHATEVER THE FUCK YOU WANNA LISTEN TO!
YOU.
DO.
YOU.
BABY.
Xoxo,
Mm

You look beautiful, your selfies are so beautiful, and an example of writing extraordinary blogs.
You Go Mama 😃💪🏽👊🏽! You hit this message to us strong, loud and clear.
After my childbearing days I would look in the mirror at myself (particular the left over fat that accumulated on my belly) and wasn’t happy with that image. Eventually I loved myself again and was able to pretty up and dress up and feel okay about the changes in my body.
I’m glad you know you are beautiful and are not worried about what other opinions may come your way. I just recently ordered me a small box of fishnets too and I love them 😁. Very cute pic of you at the end!
For future reference this post would fit well in the Self Improvement Community where inspiration and ambitions are shared.
