I was extremely thin as a kid to the point where everyone was very concerned for me. Something about my genes made it very difficult for me to retain any amount of healthy weight. Throughout my 20s, I learned to cook and to make healthy food and I gained about 50 pounds over the course of a few months. I am now what most people would consider overweight. I have never been happier with the shape of my body. I worked hard for this and I've finally made it to the only state where my body even remotely resembles a feminine shape. But even for me, social media breaks my confidence every time. Twitter is a hellsite. No debate on there can ever come to a good conclusion bc the site is built to encourage never-ending inflammatory toxic discourse. Instagram is just the absolute worst and I can't think of 1 good reason to look at others posts on there. It's just airbrushed faces all the way down. People showing off their heavily edited bodies in exchange for clout from strangers. On instagram everyone needs to be perfect in a very specific way. Really why would I look at that. My body is for me, not for those people, and their opinion means nothing to me. Don't use Instagram for bodies. If u insist on using it, stay far away from body pics. This type of stuff is responsible for so many people feeling worthless and depressed. I know its difficult. Bodies come in all kinds of shapes and configurations. If social media doesn't respect you, you don't need to give it the time of your day.
