To those with a healthy body image, how did you get where you are today?

Looked at myself in the mirror over and over again and said positive things and found positive things.

Then! Date a guy who is attracted to you, like truly attracted to you... the reinforcement is a multiplier.

When I say attracted to you, I don't mean "oh you have a great personality and love me" I mean a guy who would gladly objectify you first, and jack off to your photos without talking to you. It sounds bad, but it's not. Because what women do is objectify themselves, when they are insecure and have low self-esteem, it's because they see themselves as objects only, without considering their own mind.

The only way to see the value in your body, besides your own sort of hypnosis (because who would actually be attracted to themselves naturally?), is to find someone who would objectify the ever-loving-fuck out of you.

Fake it until you make it.
