#WearTheDamnShorts
Proud to be a part of this global campaign that spreads a message super close to my heart with my SB family!
I’ve had thick thighs all my life, so growing up I’ve heard my dad (jokingly) compare my legs to baseball bats and 金華火腿, or a leg of ham 🍗 And while I know he didn’t mean for it to negatively affect my self esteem, it definitely left a mark. For years, I felt the need to justify them to anyone who had anything to say: that I did gymnastics, that it’s because I have strong quads, that I’m only 5 feet tall so I guess they could only grow sideways 😂
It wasn’t until only *very* recently - a combination of finally accepting my own skin, cellulite, stretch marks, and all, and being old enough not to give a damn about what others think - that I no longer think twice about putting on a pair of shorts or a crop top. Okay, maybe I still do a little, but I’m working on it 😝
Here’s to loving and celebrating our strong, perfectly imperfect bodies for all that it do...
