Improving Body Image - as part of the expert series by GeoBeats. If you are out to right to a body weight but you still feel fat the first thing you want to do is realize that you are in the same boat as everybody else, no one is perfect. Another good thing to do is write down all the things you like about yourself without referring to your body. Have a good friend or a partner, write all the things they like about you too. Catch yourself when you hear a negative thought going through your head, as Louise Hay would say “Just say to yourself: Thank you for sharing, and move on”, and then add a positive thought such as “I am really funny”. Treat yourself to regular massages, facials, manicures. Make sure you continue to exercise just for the pure joy of it.
