Have you heard these myths about self-love & weight loss?
You can only love yourself once you've reached a certain weight.Self-love means you shouldn't want to lose weight.Wanting to lose weight means you don't love yourself.We'll share the truth about these myths, but get ready to be surprised. Stay tuned for some eye-opening revelations!
I think self-love is all about the way that we talk to ourselves, first and foremost, because you could take all the bubble baths, you can get all the massages, you can do all the things, but if you're beating the crap out of yourself inside your mind, it's fake, it's not real. It's a band-aid.—Laura Conley
