Being happy with my weight and going natural

I am in a place now where I am happy with who I am and what I look like and seeing other ladies of different shapes and sizes has helped. It not the size that matters or having the recent make up trend, but how you feel within yourself and on the outside. 

The image is of my son and one of our walks we do through Morden Hall park in London and filmed us doing this walk, check out this link here to watch it: https://youtu.be/UZlq8tbCtgY

This blog is not slating those who wear make up in anyway because I do like wearing it too, but for my skin I don't wear a lot. I find myself giving myself pressure as part of me keeps telling me to put in on everyday but I like going make up free some days and allow my skin to breathe. 

Listen to your skin and having a good skincare routine is a must for me and I love skincare. So is why i do like to go more Natural, and I like doing a look wear I haven't got a lot on and have a natural make up look. 

It can depend on the day and have been working on my sleep routine, and on my energy levels. I am trying to control my eating habits as this can affect how we feel and have implications on our body when we do consume unhealthy foods, but I like having a McDonalds a few weeks and eat out, but not all of the time.

There was a time where I hated the word diet, because I thought it a negative word and unachievable and never going to have a flat stomach, but I am not bothered by that now. I am no long bothered by size, and it feels good to say that. That is the question, do you want to continue to battle with having the perfect body or live your life? 

It is up to you, but for me I feel so drained by thinking about this and made up my mind that this is not what is important to me. Yes like to have a break from wearing leggins all the time, and make an effort, I just no longer want that battle with myself and live. 

So I am happy with the weight I am now. I do still check daily as I have had to lose weight because I was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes, but I feel okay with it and do feel I have control of it, and that this a big part of my change of mind, is being in control and not allow weight to control me and eat more natural foods and be in Natural environment too, as me and son now like going for walks by water and near nature. 

So I really hope this helps you and lets work together to feel good about ourselves and have confidence in ourselves.
