Weight Loss Surgery & Self Love
I tried to condense my feelings about the importance of self love into a YouTube video. There's definitely much more to say on this topic. But, I tried.
To be brief, I think self love and self care lies at the heart of weight loss and health, work life, forming good relationships with friends and family. It is crucial to carrying yourself with confidence.
It took me a long time to realize that I deserve to be treated with respect, but most importantly, I have to respect myself and my body. I realized that I could look to other people for my happiness because when I was alone, I would sink into the darkness of thinking about how alone I was. Deciding to make the changes necessary in my life came from a place of telling myself to snap out of depression.
But wait...
Now, I try to focus more on myself and what makes me happy! What makes me feel good about myself is critical to sharing that joy and positivity with others!
Happy Valentine's Day, y'all! Commandment Number XI: Love Thyself!
