Remember what you say to her...
She listens.
She watches.
She thinks you are beautiful.
Stop telling her you are on a diet.
She listens when you say you are fat, ugly or when things are wrong.. as you cry, swear, step on the scale every single day and maybe several times a day and speak badly about yourself.
Because in her eyes she will one day remember..
The perfume you wore.
The days out to the cinema.
Having snowball fights in winter.
Picnics in the summer holidays.
How you lovingly plaited her hair.
NOT the fat stomach, the cellulite, the stretchmarks that you see, or how awful you feel after a "cheat day" or a day you missed the gym.
Change your words to "eating healthily" and "eating nutritious food", exercising to be "stronger" and "healthier" instead of diet diet diet and using exercise to punish your body.
Because she is listening.
She is watching.
She is taking it all in.
And she will remember... everything ❤❤
