I’m Brandy. This is the first picture in two years that I’ve taken that has showed any sign of a body past my shoulders. I’ve always struggled with my weight but sadly I fluctuate slowly, allowing some of my most vulnerable years to be spent feeling ugly. From the end of elementary to all of my middle school years I was over 4’11” and nearly over 200Ibs. Puberty hit, had a growth spurt and lost a lot of weight. I was taller (for me that is) and skinnier. I felt confidence and health at its finest. I was 5’1” and 125Ibs at the lowest from High School to, two years after that. 

I finally found somebody and fell in love but it didn’t work out. The depression that hit after that made me feel like I needed to eat for comfort. Along with the fact I started smoking so the urge to eat was even more intense but I’m telling you all of this because I want you to know that it’s all about your own self control and how you want to see yourself. I’m not telling anyone to change their lives and lose weight, no. What I’m trying to say is, to keep a positive state of mind and don’t allow yourself to be easily influenced.

He/She doesn’t love you? Well that’s their loss because you are awesome. You think your depression or huge appetite is the reason you’re are unhappy? False, if you just keep on a smile and look at yourself, your body in a more positive light, focus on the good and ignore the bad, you might start to see a change in yourself. And you might just start to become happier.

You are all beautiful! Don’t let anyone tell you different.(Ps, This photo makes me giggle. I’m so gone. ^.^)
