Deciding to no longer hate your body, to lift your self confidence and appreciate who and what you look like now is the best decision you could ever make.
However, making that decision and actually following through is one of the hardest things you will ever do.
It’s incredibly difficult to change the way you think about yourself and how other peoples perception of you affects your emotional state.
There will be days where it’s easy and you feel on top of the world.
There will be days where every other thought is something negative.
- I hate myself
- I look horrible. How can anyone be attracted to me.
- I’m worthless
- I’ll never accomplish anything in life
You get the picture.
It’s on days like these where a support system, no matter the size, is invaluable.
There are many places you can go to find support:
- Your friends or family
- Local support groups in your community
- Internet community/forum groups.
You can also find support groups on social media.
For instance, there are a ton on Facebook. Listed below are 41 groups that I have found where you can go to safely talk about what being plus size means to you, your good and bad experiences, to hear the experience of others, to discuss topics related to your size, to learn about business that cater specifically to plus size people, etc…
Take your time checking out the groups listed to see if there is one just right for you. If you don’t find one, don’t give up. There is one out there for you.
