A staggering 91 percent of women hate their bodies.* Women and girls of all ages weigh themselves and stare in the mirror, critical of their own beautiful bodies. Their day-do-day routines are disturbed by relentless negativity.

You’re not pretty enough.

Your legs aren’t skinny enough.
Your stomach isn’t flat enough.
Your skin isn’t clear enough.

Never enough.

This blog post was originally written for Metiza Magazine, a publication dedicated to guiding young women through all of life's struggles. To keep reading, view the original post.
