There's an alien in my tummy!
Does your tummy talk? Mine talks constantly almost like is ranting at me. I'm one of the people whose tummy just takes over their life. I can't remember the last time I liked my tummy or felt like my tummy felt healthy. I'm sure I have an alien sitting in their trying to take over.
I have IBS and I'm lactose intolerant which doesn't help my case, however, I know I'm the only person to blame for this as when I was younger my brain just told m to hate myself and starve all nutrients out of my self to keep me what I thought was beautiful and bony (obviously wasn't).
To this day I can honestly say that I still well and truly hate my tummy if I could cut a body part out and still survive it would be my tummy. I'm hoping one day I will feel different but at 22 years old I'm getting on, that I should be over that self-hatred feeling come on girl you're not a teenager anymore!
It doesn't help that social media these days just takes over your life telling you to look like this, feel like this, BE THIS!
I can see my future self looking back and being like god damn what's wrong with you wasting your time worrying about something so small that it took over your life. Your lovely young life which you won't ever be able to relive.
I'm living my life as still very wary of what I eat. My tummy still gurgles and growls at me. It hurts and bloats. I still hate my tummy. HOWEVER, I love my life and small changes DO make a big difference
.
I now eat 3 meals a day, I've gone veggie nearly vegan to cut out nasties, I go the gym most days and try not to feel bad if I miss a day because of my busy lifestyle. These changes are small and still might seem silly to some people (in your head you might be thinking get a grip but this is my little bit of grip on my life).
Tummy one day I will love you and appreciate you but, right now it's a slow burner. People, 22-year-olds, older, younger, all genders, etc etc you are beautiful and you can struggle. It will eventually get better. Maybe not now or in a couple of years but, hang on. Get a grip on your life even if it's only a little bit.
