Let me start by saying this: I am in no way bashing body shapes.

I embrace all type of body shapes, and I am a firm believer that God made all of us unique and beautiful. Look at me: I'm no size 2, and I could definitely step on the treadmill and toss the Cheetos from my food bin.

Okay, so cutting to the chase- we need to throw out the "body positivity movement".

Hear me out when I say this, every body is beautiful in their own way, and diversity is truly beautiful. However, what isn't beautiful is allowing society to think that both being over-weight and under-weight is something to idolize. And I understand what the "body positivity" trend stands for, and how it is a platform for acceptance and giving the idea of "loving yourself for who you are, no matter your physique".

Being unhealthy is not beautiful or inspirational, and it is definitely not loving yourself.

Both obesity and malnutrition from anorexia is at an all-time high, as it is all because society has tricked our minds into thinking beauty has one certain standard, and if you don't have it, you need to find a way to attain it. I get that, and I understand that part of the body-posi trend, however, that isn't a healthy way to look at it.

My boyfriend's mom tells me frequently that healthily maintaining both mental and physical health is how you gain self-confidence. You truly need to appreciate your body in order to allow it to run smoothly. Which means eating the beneficial-nutrient heavy foods, exercising in some form everyday, and removing toxic things and people from your life. Your body is like a car- no matter how pretty or satisfied you are with the outside, you still need to keep it maintained, or else it won't run right.

So please, let's all ditch this trend, because it isn't even accurate. Body positivity is being positive about your health, and keeping positive as you strive to make you the healthy person you need to be. Go to the doctor regularly, eat good foods, workout a couple times per week, do what is going to make you feel good on the inside.

Stop thinking about society and it's views and platforms; do what you need to do to make you healthy inside and out, because newsflash: body positivity could end up harming you more than benefit you in the end.
