Advice from our Peers

"You’re growing and changing all the time, the average life span of a human cell is 7-10 years. after that it is brand new. There is never a moment in life that is not changing, so there’s no need to beat down on yourself. What matters is your own health, and after that, it’s a matter of accepting yourself. Although it’s easier said than done, it’s the most important step. Love yourself, be your own biggest fan."

"Don't be so harsh on yourself about how you believe you look in the mirror. Take the time to appreciate certain aspects of yourself, and allow yourself certain freedoms."

"Be who you are and gain confidence and comfort for yourself, you don't have to be someone you don't want to be."

"Try to look for the positives in your eyes. Some days you'll feel very confident other times you be very low and disgusted. One thing you must always remember is that your body is consistently changing throughout the day. The body you woke up to isn't the same as the one you go to bed at night. So its okay because it shows your human. P.S most influences fake it anyways."

"It's not always about looking the exact same as others. If your body works well and does what it needs to, there's no need to think or do drastic things to try and change it. Sure, physical improvement is a great thing to strive for, but there's healthier ways to think about and go about it. Everything is not gonna change instantly."
