How do people have so much confidence?

Question

I am a plus size 20 yr old. It's not that I am huge or anything, but I have a horrible problem with self confidence. I have tried to post pictures of all the beautiful plus size models in my room. I have tried to start thinking better. Nothing works for me. I am still in my mind the fat girl. I aam going to eventually lose the weight but I need to know how to keep myself happy while I am trying to do it. Any help?

Answer 1

Well, self confidence is something people sometimes just have, because of looks, or a special skill they possess.   However, I don't think it can come through looking at other plus size models or what not.  I myself am kinda on the heavy side, and I do things that make me feel better.   In my case, I get my hair, my nails done from time to time.  I find clothes that compliment my body.  Those are the superficial things, aside from that, I try my best to work out when I can, I go out and stay active, I try to better myself in all areas of life.  These are things that motivate me, and at the end of the day, no matter what size I am I feel s**y and confident with the person that I am and have become.   Posters wont really make a difference.   If its your weight that bothers you, try a diet, stick with it, and maybe dedicate yourself to going for a walk an hour a day.   Believe me, when you work a sweat, go home take a cool shower, you will feel much better about yourself.   Think of all the positive qualities you possess.  

Good Luck In All You Do!

Confidence  comes  from  being  secure  with  yourself  and  who you  are.  When  a  person  is  secure  with  themselves  they  are  happy  in  general.
