We were all made of different shapes and sizes. No matter how much we go through mentally and physically to get our  bodies to look a certain way. Neither dieting and strenuous work out will get you the hour glass figure if you were not born with it. It will be completely impossible to get your body to look that way. Not to burst your bubble. Unless surgery is some how involved.

So why is it that when ever we are shown a picture of the perfect body, it is always an hour glass figure for a women and an upside down triangle for the man. This problem isn’t something that women go through alone. Now a days it is effecting the male population as well. Not that it is anything new but it keeps getting worse.

We should start to instill in our children early on in there childhood to love there body for what it is. To feel special and wonderful that the body they have was made especially for them. We as parents and as people they look up to,  should do the same. Instead of wanting what we can’t have we should love ourselves for what we do have and who we are. Let’s not let the media dictate how we should feel and how we should look.

This can be really hard to do as we are human and things in life effect us in so many ways. But we have to be strong for our children. We can only teach to love if we truly love ourselves.
