Gia Kim Instagram – I put myself through all the toxic diet trends all throughout my 20s. It left long-term repercussions that completely ruined my healthy natural relationship with food, which was only meant to bring joy. It’s been 3 years since I recognized my disordered eating habits. I am still recovering. I still occasionally (but a lot less) struggle through body image issues. I’d get into obsessive thoughts about food & weight & what I ate / what I should eat, etc.. In the past the default reaction would be to force myself into action sprouting from thoughts of self-deficiency and negative self-image. But now I keep reminding myself of one of my favorite quotes – we can’t shame ourselves into change, only love ourselves into evolution. And it’s been a game changer in how I look at situations whenever I feel old toxic patterns kicking in. You can’t shame yourself into change, only love yourself into evolution. 🙏🏻❤️ And what a waste of precious fking energy and time I have on Earth to be focusing on all the wrong things!!!!!! 😅😭WE HAVE SO MUCH MORE TO OFFER THAN OUR BODY FAT PERCENTAGE!!!!🤣🤣🤣 January 2024 has been an amazing start to this year already. Can’t wait for the rest of the year!!! 🤩 나 자신을 미워해서 변화시키려는 대신 나 자신을 사랑해서 진화시키자는 마음가짐으로 항상 ❤️ 올해 첫 달 너무너무 좋은 시작!!!! 🥰🥰🥰
