How to love yourself in 8 really hard steps

A few weeks ago I wrote a blog entry with the same name, and I was amazed at the response. I decided to take it to You Tube so I can practice using my words... I'm not a very comfortable speaker, and vlogging is pretty good practice :D

Thank you so much. I've needed something like this. I've never been comfortable with my body. I've always been chubby. I'm a soon to be 10th grader, and I'm still chubby. I still hate my arms, back, stomach, and thighs. Although, I'm trying to overcome my hatred towards them. I run track and cross county, I'm faster than quite a lot of people.I eat normal portions. I don't really eat sweets and fats. And I still do not understand why I'm this way. It's so crazy!

I think when people love themselves and are confident in themselves, theres something about them that I want. They are instantly beautiful no matter how they look.

You a top girl! And I truly love your ( australian) accent. People keep head up, we are great and noone and I mean noone have a right to judge us upon their own idea!

well i thin your right mostly but your missing 1 very big point and i know you said you dont like those talks but im in an aproach that says lets put all the cards on the table and not hide stuff so for me the right way is to go all organic and its importent that it will be organic cause non organic veggies and fruits are less tasty !! so than once we understand that point the right way is eating allota veggies like 55% of our food and than 40% fruits and than 5%nuts try u wont regret !

I love your video! I am a Health Coach (but more accurately... a Life Coach).  The MOST important thing about health, relationships etc, is loving yourself. Way to go! :-) I actually talk a little about this topic in the video that plays first on my channel. Thanks for the awesome inspiration you are giving all of these people. :-)

I like this video and i think you've hit on some great points. i encourage health and that doesnt mean being a size 2 or 0. it can mean being a size that fits ur body type and what shape the Lord gave us.
