What's the Weight?!?

It is no surprise that I have had a battle with weight since childhood some would say...but is it actually a battle, I would have to beg to differ. In todays society it is a requirement for certain careers(modeling, swimming, performance) to be stick thin or at least attempt to be, this seems to also hold true for young women that are in search of a husband. But is it that big of a deal, weight that is. Well I see how easy it is to get sucked in to the idea that with a size 2 waist comes happiness, but I don't believe this is to be true.

We see it everywhere television, in the sizes that are carried in stores, school, even for many the household...there is a definate pressure to be thin. I too have thought about this fact plenty of times, but in the end whether I succumb to the societal pressure to be thin, I don't think that this would make me happy. This has to be something someone wants for themselves, no one else but self. Being a size 2 may make you happy when you look into the mirror, but it's the person you are inside that makes for a life of enjoyment or misery.

I admit that I have previously been on a fast for a few weeks sticking to a no meat restriction, I have also tried to diet before...what a struggle that was; the lack of motivation within myself was the cause. This motivation was lacking because, I feel that it has not held me back from anything in life, I am happy and still find affordable items to dawn on my body everday, therefore no need to drop the pounds. But health wise, yes, I do believe that doing body or master cleansing is very important to purifying and getting all the nasty stuff out of your system. This is the only part of dieting I would consider to everyone that is ok with haveing a few extra pounds or being over a size 8, especially if there is no access fat or anything that needs to be covered up.

I just think the key to let the pressure to be thin, surpass your need for happiness, is to find what it is within yourself that you like, and that attracts others(friends,family and loved ones) to you then you will be happy for that and that alone. Full Satisfaction!
