I used to feel so effortlessly beautiful (never even had a second thought about how I looked) and it just feels like so much work now and nothing is ever enough.

The dieting, the exercising, the pills, the waist trainer - it’s just all so depressing considering i’m still nowhere near where i used to be.

Any of my late 20s ladies feel me?

You’ll never be where you were when you were younger. I’ve learned to just embrace that and start enjoying things that make me feel most beautiful now(hair, nails, waxing, working out). It’s hard to adjust but it really all comes down to mindset - I don’t compare myself to anyone because I’m the only me and I love myself because of it!

Does the waist trainer make a difference? Thinking about getting one

Is the point of it to spot reduce or create extra sweat in the waist region? Or is the purpose more to support your back and ab muscles so they grow in a contained way? Thanks for the advice!

Yes! I feel you

Does it ever make you wonder why we have so many man made sects/denominations of christianity?

They are all denominations of sects that started with a man/woman disagreeing with an original church (e.g whether it be Catholic or Orthodox).

I mean we have Jehovahs witness, baptist, Anabaptist, Evangelical, independent, pentecostal, lutheran and the list goes on and on and on.

Its either God says only one is right and the rest were teaching false religions or we all go to heaven.

Thoughts?

I don't know who needs to hear this, but I have a few former classmates and colleagues sweating over lateral interviews. Take a deep breath and relax.

First, doing these interviews does not define you as a person.

Second, take it one day at a time; if they are moving forward, they see something in you.

Third, remember that the people interviewing you are human beings. Connect with them, be personable.

I think my brother is an idiot when it comes to his dating life. He recently started dating someone that the whole family loves - really down to earth, great personality, educated, hot and has a career. I just found out my bro is cheating on her with his ex (who is toxic/manipulative, stole money from my mother & doesn’t have a job or trying to get one). From a personality, values & looks perspective, the new girlfriend is what every guy would dream of. Im jealous &wish I could date her instead
