For anyone with Netflix, especially women there is a documentary called Embrace I recommend. I struggle so much to accept my body and taking meds can be hard because of the weight gain side effect. Earlier today I typed "how to accept my body" into google and all that came up was a bunch of thinsperation fat shaming memes which were far from helpful and very discouraging rather than encouraging......I put on Netflix hoping to find something to calm my mind and the documentary Embrace was in my recommendations so I watched and glad I did. We are so much more than our size....we are beautiful even if not a size 2, 12 or 22. All sizes are beautiful and being thin doesn't equal happy OR healthy. I really need to keep reminding myself of this. I thought I'd share in case this documentary could help someone else whose struggling to accept themselves. Seeing how the media lies to us, it's nice to be reminded of reality. (((Hugs to everyone)))
