I’m Tired of Hating My Body Just Because the Internet Told Me To

Let’s name it:
You weren’t born hating your body. You were taught to. You were taught that your worth was in your weight. That being smaller meant being more lovable. That your body should be flat, firm, filtered, and feminine in all the right ways — but never too much.

And now?

Now you’re a woman who’s exhausted. Tired of chasing a version of beauty that doesn’t even feel like you.

You’re not lazy. You’re not undisciplined. You’re just done abandoning yourself to meet someone else’s definition of worthy.

Maybe you’re not trying to be a size 2. Maybe you’re just trying to wake up without picking yourself apart in the mirror. To enjoy a meal without guilt. To move your body because it feels good — not because you’re punishing it.

Maybe you’re just trying to come home to yourself.

And yeah — the internet still screams at you to “glow up.”
To lift heavier, eat cleaner, get tighter, tone faster, stay younger.

But deep down? You’re craving softness. Rest. Peace. The ability to look in the mirror and say, “I’m allowed to be here. Just like this.”

Here’s the truth:

You do not exist to be consumed.
Your body isn’t a project.
It’s not an apology.
It’s your home.

And no amount of self-hate will ever lead to sustainable love.

That’s why I created Back to Me. It’s not about fixing yourself. It’s about finally listening to what your body — and your spirit — have been trying to say for years.

You can stop waging war with your reflection.
You can start choosing peace instead of perfection.

And it starts on the page.
