Health Comes In All Shapes & Sizes
Stop focusing on the scale, start focusing on being a better you.
The health industry is booming now more than ever. More and more people are jumping on to try and be more healthy. However how often do we watch the classic commercials, try out “Proven” diet plans, and do whatever it takes to reach a place that may be unrealistic for us? Whilst the health industry promotes a relatively good cause, it often goes about it in the wrong way, as well as leaving out essential aspects of an individuals health.
Ripped abs, incredibly toned body, spray-tanned from top to bottom, that’s a picture-perfect image of a “healthy person” right? If you’ve seen any of the weight-loss ads, health programs or exercise machine promos, that’s the image you start to form in your mind. I know for myself, even when I was at my physical best, as fit as anyone else, I still never looked like those men in all those health promotions. I constantly placed pressure on myself to look a certain way because hell, good health means I have to look like a model. An incredibly freeing experience was coming to understand good health did not mean I had to look a certain way. Most of all, all that health propaganda was some serious bull sh*t!
Health has absolutely nothing to do with what you look like. There, I said it…
