Growing up, I was always referred to as the “chubby sister.” And in reality, I was. At any given day you could have found me reading a Harry Potter book while snacking on a box of cookies. I struggled with my weight and body image and spent years picking my body apart, experimenting with all the latest diet and exercise trends. But nothing stuck and how I felt about myself and my body only grew worse.
It wasn’t until I began diving into God’s word that things began to change. I began learning about the unconditional love of God, how I was made with purpose, how my body is considered a temple, a sacred place. And that was when I finally learned this:
I realized that if I ever wanted to change physically it needed to start from the inside, by building a foundation of love and acceptance. So I did the dirty work. I journaled, read countless books and surrendered whatever timeline or expectations I had for myself. This did not happen overnight. It took a lot of work, self reflection and awareness to reverse years of body shaming and negative self-talk. And if I am being honest, it is something I still have to intentionally work on to this day.
Once I changed my mindset, I began moving out of love for my body. Instead of looking at exercise as a way to punish my body for my poor food choices, I began looking at it as a way of celebrating my body for all that it could do. I also started looking at it as an investment in my future. As an Occupational Therapist I see first hand what years of neglecting your health will do to your body as you age. Fair warning: it is not pretty. Move now so you can continue to enjoy life later.
I eventually found the joy in movement. Almost 2 years later and I have never been stronger or more consistent than I am today. This is why I took a leap of faith and decided to create the fitness journal I wanted for myself. I realized that the Move With Purpose fitness journal could be helpful for women struggling with their body image as well.
I am still on my own journey to becoming the best version of myself and loving myself every step of the way. It is a choice I make everyday and I pray that MELA VIE empowers you to do the same.
Nowadays, you can still find me reading a book but instead of cookies I’m sipping on Chai Tea….with an occasional cookie here and there ;)
