I am who I am!

"I plead with you young women to please be more accepting of yourselves, including your body shape and style, with a little less longing to look like someone else. We are all different. Some are tall, and some are short. Some are round, and some are thin. And almost everyone at some time or other wants to be something they are not! But as one adviser to teenage girls said: “You can’t live your life worrying that the world is staring at you. When you let people’s opinions make you self-conscious you give away your power. … The key to feeling [confident] is to always listen to your inner self—[the real you.]” 8 And in the kingdom of God, the real you is “more precious than rubies.” 9 Every young woman is a child of destiny and every adult woman a powerful force for good." -Jeffrey R. Holland

SO I got this at Young Women's tonight and realized how much confidence I have lost in my self with the whole weight lost thing. So I am accepting who I am. Yes I am going to try and eat better and exercise. But I am not focusing on it any more. Lately I have been so unhappy and grumpy. I think that a lot of it is because I am focusing on my outer self and not on my inner spirit! So I am going to work on changing that perspective! and who knows maybe in the process I will lose a little weight. But for now I am who, I am and no one can change me!
