Science, Fashion, Health, Melissa.

Everyone should take a moment to evaluate why they’re working out and eating right. Is it to be healthy or is it to look good? Think carefully about this. At first thought you may not think it’s damaging to your self-esteem to do it for a sexier body (After all, aren’t I just making it better by working out?), but think again. Think about the times you’ve looked in the mirror and felt so fat, ugly, or whatever other negative things you’ve ever called yourself, that you binged on some unhealthy junk food, thus making you feel even worse.

If you make the choice to exercise and eat right for your health, you will have a more positive body image. You will stop hating your body. You will stop wanting to starve yourself to be thin. You will stop wanting to exercise every time you eat because of how “fat” you feel. You will instead develop a healthier relationship with food and exercise, allowing for you to focus on your goals instead of worrying about every last calorie or pound.

This change can be hard, but for many people it’s completely necessary.  If you do it all for your health, the sexy body will just be an awesome reward for your hard work. Your body and mind will thank you.
