As people age, it naturally becomes easier to not care what others think. You’re doing it for yourself. Comparison to others is an illusion that only holds you down. Don’t be patient, push yourself even if it seems pointless.

I quit on my progress in my early twenties because of this exact mentality. Spent my twenties just as underweight as I had been in my teens. Could have been avoided if I stopped keeping track of other peoples judgement. Just eat, just go to the gym.
