Making this a post because all of the love 🫶 I want to say this because I know someone needs to hear it and I’m only speaking from my experience. I was always the skinny kid growing up. It almost feels wrong to say that I had trouble gaining weight, to this day it’s hard for me to say that, because so many people close to me struggled with the opposite. I was always told “you’re lucky you’re skinny” but then within the same sentence I heard “you’re a twig and I could snap you in half”. Once I had the means, l ate constantly and forced myself to drink mass gainers every night, consuming thousands of calories before falling asleep, thinking that’s what I had to do so I would never be “snapped in half”. That was then followed by countless hours of staring at myself in the mirror feeling like I would never look how I wanted. This went on for longer than I’d like to admit. What I’m saying is, being skinny does’t always mean you’re healthy. Most days I still see this skinny kid in the mirror, but instead of putting him down, I hold his hand. I may be more fit than i was 10 years ago, but I’m still picking up the pieces of little codty. So the best advice l have is, eat better foods, workout regularly, meditate, and most importantly, take it easy on yourself. Your future self will thank you ❤️
