Body image is a never-ending journey.

Today The Fat Athlete and I were talking about body image and how it’s a never-ending journey.

It’s easy to think that a positive or healthy body image, or body acceptance, is a destination that some lucky people have reached and you just can’t seem to find.

But no matter how much work we do on our self-image, we’re still surrounded every single day by a world that gains power and profit from our hating ourselves and our bodies.

Resisting that is a lifelong work.
