This is for me. I'm Alex. And this blog is to track my journey toward a healthy weight and a strong body and mind.

You my dear, are beautiful and amazing!So yeah, my finale step in accepting myself is taking my own advice and feeling proud of the way I look by flaunting it. I am way happier looking at these photos and feeling genuinely beautiful than looking at a scale and getting excited when I loose weight. Weight is not a measurement of health, your self worth and definitely not your beauty. Let aloe your right to wear a bathing suit when it’s hot as hell! You earned that body, it’s beautiful because it belongs to you!
The perfect bikini body joke has been going around for while, just thought I’d contribute, not steal someone else’s joke :PI love you
This girl is literally my favorite person on the planet right now

Like seriously, confidence is key. If you walk around like “fuck yeah my belly is chunky, you mad?” No one else is going to say shit because you already have that shit under control and their bullshit has already been rejected so own your shit.
not to mention people respond much more pleasantly about it/towards you!
<3 yes.

What if sleeping beauty became a knight instead?
A mini project I’ve been thinking about for awhile. You can find a backstory comic [here].

CAN WE JUST TAKE A MINUTE TO APPRECIATE THESE MOTHERFUCKING BOOKS
these fake ass diaries that were SO WELL WRITTEN that your 10-year-old self was about a million percent convinced that someone’s ratty ass diary survived the sinking of the Titanic and became a national best seller
THEY COVERED FUCKIN EVERYTHING
AHHH the Cleopatra one was my favorite. Of all time. And the remember patience whipple one gave me nightmares for months cuz of this one part where they torture some guy by opening up his stomach and putting HOT COALS inside. WTF? I read it when I was 11 and was so traumatized that i went crying to my mom, and she STILL let me read those books!! They were all amazing though. 10/10 will recommend to my kids haha.

Reverse gender stereotypes at the gym
Aaahhhh get on my dash you amusing thing you.
I kinda love it
this is actually great from an acting perspective.
the actors actually played the opposite gender instead of just relying on stereotypes (ironically enough) to portray that they were, in fact, the opposite gender. Usually if you tell a guy to act like a girl, he begins playing by the homosexual stereotype (faking a lisp, popping the hip, etc.) and while it accentuates femininity, it’s really uncomfortable and forced, making it just seem like he’s playing a stereotype instead of the actual gender. And girls will do this too; being told to play a male and instead just deepening the voice and say “dude” and “bro” a lot (although these are more common among modern practices).
The males played up femininity without coming off as a forced stereotype and the females played up masculinity and machismo without forcing their performance.
also the video is funny and I kind of forgot the point I was making.
DONT BE A LITTLE PENIS

Repeat after me kids:
A relationship does not have to be romantic and/or sexual to be important.
