Be Yourself - It Truly is Enough

Have you ever held back on a date, trying to be all quiet or some “way” you think your date would expect you to be? Maybe you’re feeling self-conscious about your size, and want to come off differently in your date’s eyes. We play games with ourselves - maybe if I act this way, he won’t notice I’m plus sized….STOP! Please stop, stop, stop doing this to yourself.

Your date is on a date with you because they want to be. They were attracted to you enough to ask you out. Now stop beating yourself up about being plus sized and just be yourself. Think about all of your friends….once you get to know people, is it their size you notice? No! It’s their personality — if someone is warm and sincere you notice that. If they are fun to be around, you notice that. If they are some cardboard cut out personality just trying to be something they aren’t - you notice that!

Let your personality come out - be who you are and celebrate your beauty of who you are, both inside and out.
