:( how i feel

I’ve lost weight since being at uni, but I don’t feel like I have. I still buy a size 10, only to have to return it as I realise I really am a size 6-8 now. It’s strange, even when I’m trying on clothes, I have to take in a 10 with the ‘just in case thought’. It’s irrational, but I feel the same. I’ve got some work to do in accepting the facts. When my family point out to me ‘Oh you’ve lost weight.’ I don’t say anything because I don’t want to thank them, cause I don’t see it as a compliment but rather a mere observation. I want to be happy in my body regardless of my size and shape. I have 4 beautiful nieces and I don’t want them to prioritise their image and trade their sense of self and happiness for society’s ideals.
