Is social media toxic?

In a world where the Kardashians body/booty are so glorified we need to remember that what we see of them and others, aren’t always reality. It’s ok to use that as an inspiration but don’t get too caught up in it. And GUYS, don’t make comments or compare girls to these heavily edited Insta models you follow.

I’ll be the first to admit that pics are all about good angles and lighting. Remember social media is not real life and never let anyone’s photo make you feel insecure about yourself. If you don’t look like her or she doesn’t look like you, that’s how it’s meant to be. You are meant to be you and no one else.

Social media has become a toxic mirror. If you want to change your physical appearance, do it for yourself and not to meet a beauty standard.

Having worked so hard to lose almost 40 lbs within the last 18 months to now being skinny-shamed. Women just can’t win. We constantly have our bodies being policed by society and I’m so over it!!

Don’t be so hard on yourself and stop comparing yourself to others. When you look at your reflection, all you see is your physical form. You’re looking for flaws. But remember when others see you, they see your personality and intelligence also – the whole you.
