I feel like with all of my posts being so gun-ho about how I've changed and do this and this to better myself in some way and all that, I make myself sound like I don't have weaknesses or insecurities still.
But, I do.
Very much so.
So, this post is dedicated to talking about my weaknesses. And what I still need to change about myself.
I think my biggest problem is my inability to say no to people. Obviously, I can say the word in situations which would require me to do so, but I'm talking about when someone asks me to go shopping with them. I hate shopping. I hardly ever want to go, but I feel bad saying no, so I go. I want to help people and make them feel good about themselves and what they're doing. I guess I think that if I say no, it's going to make them feel bad, so I refrain from doing so.
I still have problems with my weight. I'm more confident with how I am now, but every once and awhile, I'll look in the mirror and think, "Gross. I need to have thinner thighs and I want abs." I don't have time these days to do much about it, so I don't work out much. I can't complain if I'm not doing anything about it. I grew up being told I was fat. When I wasn't. I wasn't skinny by any means. I was just bigger boned and was carrying a few more pounds than I should have. I was always told if I lost 10 or 20 more pounds I'd be better, faster, prettier. It diminished my self esteem about myself. I don't think that way now, and I'm a million times more confident with myself. I just have certain days when I'm all wtf.
So there. I just shared my two biggest weaknesses with you. I've still got a lot of changing to do, but I have no doubt that I can do it.
