In a world where fat shaming is sometimes a sport for people, it is important to be the type of woman who is about compassion and empathy for yourself and others. Often women fat shame themselves and along with the stress and social pressures of the shaming others do, it can be a very stressful time if you gain weight. It is important in the body image and body love mission to ensure you see that others shaming is only a reflection of them and to let it ride on by because others’ opinions don’t really count. It is your opinion that matters and if you have an opinion of yourself that is not healthy for you and is about shaming yourself then now may be a good time to make some changes. As you age, it is rare that women are as thin as they used to be while they can be. People don’t know truly what someone who has gained weight is going through or has gone through, so it is such a gift to be compassionate and have empathy for yourself and others. These insights will assist you to gain compassion and empathy for your situation and with others because as you judge you shall be judged:
