As you might guess, weight-loss isn't just about choosing to eat right and exercise. Many times, it's also about having the self-worth to make a change and believing that you deserve to do something positive for yourself! Make yourself a priority: Everyone's journey and circumstances are different. So instead of wondering why you weren't blessed with a faster metabolism focus on what you love about yourself. The next time you become self-conscious, remind yourself that you deserve good things in life, too, so commit to make healthy choices. Weight loss isn't a weakness, a desire to conform, or a sign that you're not awesome just the way you are. Every person is worthy of love, respect and self-care�and maintaining a healthy weight is part of that. Losing weight is hard work, but the change begins with you and it starts right now.
