Emotional Issues about Clothing

[newyearnewbody]

For me, this journey is as much about emotional well-being as it is about physical well-being. Maybe even more

I just didn't give a damn about clothing because I was so big that it never looked good and I just shopped to hide the fat. I hate shopping. It has changed a little with weight loss, but I still don't really have a sense of fashion, and have reasonably simple but annoyingly expensive tastes.

I think that you're going to have such fun indulging that voice that likes clothing! You very much deserve to let it out and treat yourself well! You deserve to look your best, and to take pride in your appearance. It feels so good to show off your curves! (And there are women who are not afraid to be fashionable at any weight!! Check out the Fatshionista community here on LJ!)

Oh, I've seen that community. The people on there are so beautiful! They don't have perfect bodies, but they have so much confidence! I guess that's what I'm lacking the most.

Hang out there and confidence will rub off... if they can do it, why can't you? =)
