Carrie Hope Fletcher, who’s currently starring as Eponine in
Les Miserables at the Queen’s Theatre in London, uploaded a pretty amazing
video about being healthy and happy. Please take a few minutes to watch it.
Well, I am not as confident as Carrie, so no measuring. But
I do love the message of this video.
Love yourself! Be okay with the way you look! You ARE
beautiful! Yes, you can wear that!
Believe me when I say that I do know what it feels like to
not be comfortable in your own skin. It’s a pretty shitty feeling. And there
are still days were I feel bloated and fat and like dressing in a bed sheet so
no one will see my wobbly bits. But that’s okay. Because the next day - or even
the day after that - I will feel fabulous in my new dress or favourite top.
And please, please, don’t let ANYONE make you feel crap
because of what they think of your weigh, height, size, colour, hair… This is
you. You are the only person who has to like it.
There will always be someone who won’t like your outfit or
your hair colour but the good news is that it doesn’t matter. You are not here
to please everyone.
If you want to lose a few pounds, fine, why not. As long as
you do it the healthy way and don’t harm yourself or others. If you want to put
on some weight, hells yeah! Whatever makes you feel most comfortable and happy
– do it!
Sometimes, when I’m extra happy I put on one of my favourite
“feelin’ sexy” tunes and have a little dance. Here are a few. Listen and let
go, babes:
Jessie J – Sexy Lady
Alicia Keys – Girl On Fire
McFLY –
Party Girl
Ellie Goulding – Burn
Scouting for Girls – She’s So Lovely
Shirley
Bassey – Big Spender
ABBA – Dancing Queen
I hope that Carrie’s video and this post have made your day
a little bit brighter. You look fabulous, you ARE fabulous!
