According to a poll conducted by seventeen, 90% of teen girls feel anxiety or stress about some part of their looks when getting ready in the morning.
Ever said something harsh like this about your body?
It's not just on days when we're feeling hormonal or bloated- we are always at war! It's us against our bodies. Sometimes you feel like you've 'won'- by putting together an outfit that conceals all your 'flabby arms , your 'thunder thighs' or other body parts you feel conscious about. Even so, we're focused about one thing- whether we look okay or too fat in our dress. It's exhausting. And most of the time we fail to realize how badly obsessed we are.
Let's sign the Seventeen Body Peace treaty today and pledge to love, accept and be at peace with our bodies, and not let our size define who we are.
Because life is too short to be fighting a battle with ourselves and our body all the time.
I want you to write this down on post-it note and put it somewhere you can see everyday:
Beauty isn't just about my looks. It's my amazing personality and my energy that creates a whole, unique package.
On a final note: you're beautiful and don't let anyone tell you otherwise :)
