I want to be healthy and strong and not give even the smallest of fucks about what people think

Keywords: {0}

I always say I don’t care what people think of me so why am I so concerned with my weight and how I look. But I read something today about the shame that women feel about their bodies, despite the absolute fucking slog they go through every day of their lives. It made me think – I’m probably right when I say I don’t really care what other people think but maybe I care what I think and maybe that is shame. Do I feel ashamed because I’m “fatter” than most people around me? Do I feel ashamed because my stomach that was home to two beautiful babies for 9 months (absolutely fucking huge babies might I add) isn’t flat? I mean it isn’t even round, I don’t know what shape it is! Do I feel ashamed that I weigh more than my partner? Do I feel ashamed when I eat something “bad”?
