Hello, Lovelies! Welcome to my body positive, good vibes only, college athlete problem-ed, journey through my life! Y'all need to buckle up because it's going to be a bumpy ride!
For a little insight on my life, I was born and raised in the North-West Suburbs of Chicago. My whole life, I was surrounded around baseball and softball. My life long dream was to play in college. So here I am; Located in Raleigh, North Carolina, playing softball at Wake Technical Community College, aspiring to find a four-year institution to play softball and to call home for the next two years.
When I was younger, I was never happy with my body (glance at the b/w image). I over ate, only exercised when I had to for softball, and I always felt tired. During my Junior year of high school, it dawned on me: Exercise and eating right would reduce my sluggish behaviors, and that I love my body! So what if I'm not the skinniest or have the "ideal" body type? I'm perfect for me. I know I still have work to do to better myself but I love my body. It's the only one I'll ever have or need. So I better start embracing it, right?!
Body positivity is what truly drove me to start this blog. Hearing women of all sizes say "I'm ugly" or "I need to change for 'so-and-so" kills me! You are all beautiful! Accept yourself! Your body is perfect for you! Embrace every curve, bump, lump, dimple, and imperfection. You are gorgeous: And don't let anyone tell you differently! {If they do, tell them "BOY, BYE!"}
I hope my journey will inspire all of you to embrace yourself and to enjoy my different viewpoint on the world!
