Negative body image is something that haunts us throughout life. Acceptance starts with our own positivity and ends with supporting each other.

"Being patient and nice to your self and body " — Michelle, 2023 yes girl! And also this will be my motto for the whole year. As a woman who has naturally skinny body, I was so insecure as I grow up since elementary up to college days. Living in a country that the standard body size would be between slim and chubby. People would always notice me for being skinny same when I applying jobs instead of seeing my skills and qualifications. But now, I slowly accept myself without thinking those criticisms. What's important is being healthy and contented with what you have. Meesh you'll always be my inspiration. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experience here in your channel.

The way she hugged michoi is just naturally cute 😢❤

Things people say can sometimes stick with you. By working on ourselves and accepting ourselves we can slowly overcome any insecurity we have. A beautiful vlog Michelle ❤

I practice “what other people's opinion about is none of my business” — since it's something out of my control and also ‘people always have something to say’ — so just live the life you want Meesh! 🫰🏻

Good vibes! 💕

Michelle’s vlogs just give me so much peace.

Thank you for sharing Michelle. After the idea of being "too skinny" struck my head, I stress about it constantly. People are often insensitive about making comments about someone being too thin when putting on weight is as hard as losing it. Hopefully I can be better at accepting myself and not worrying too much about what others might think. Thank you for being an inspiration <3

[christinenguyen]

Everyone talks about how they want to lose weight, the struggles and insecurities on that. Barely anyone talks about the opposite, the struggles with being skinny or actually wanting to gain weight. I can totally relate to this. Been struggling with myself forever and still do. Really glad you talked about it. And it’s true, you are your own harshest critic. It’s always a work in progress to love yourself and your body. We grow thicker skin and learn to accept some things we cannot change. As long as you’re healthy and happy.

thank you for sharing this michelle. I grew up with people always commenting about me being 'too skinny', and that left a silent mark on the way I viewed my body for years. Fast forward, and now I am so grateful and proud of my body, my own sanctuary, despite the memories those words left back in the day. In the end, we are the ones who have the power to accept and care for our body with so much love, only us.

your vlog has always been my healing time but recently i went through a bad bad breakup after 8 years of relationship and your vlog keeps me company and smile even just for a while, thank you!

[gogontlesetlhare]

We really have to shut out the noise and focus on being nicer with ourselves. There's so much grace in allowing yourself to just be and not worry about always being perfect to the T

[ma-lesrrno]

no need to worry about your body. we are all created differently and we need to embrace our individuality. stop comparing yourself to others coz you look great Michelle!

couldn't agree more with good weather + good company! so much good vibes in this week's vlog 💗

[Nganthebread]

hey Michelle! I recommend getting a floor vacuum (ex: zoomba) to help with floor hairs/pet hairs! we got one for my family and omg never going back. you can even program it to run automatically too. we hardly ever use the vacuum anymore unless its for tight corners/detailing. hope this helps!

[mmiakim]

i cannot explain how much it has helped hearing you talk about your body image & relationship with health/eating. even though i don't have quite the same issues, it really helped me realize how everyone is so much more critical of themselves than we need to be. you've really helped with my own image of self-love. thank you!! ❤

[sora-mkul]

I related a lot to your story about getting comments on having a "too small" chest or being too "boney" or skinny since I also experienced that when I grew up and it still has an effect on me to this day. I never saw myself to be womanly enough which affected a lot of my early relationships. It weird how a small comment from someone who probably forgot about it 10 seconds later can have such a severe impact on yourself for many many years. When you hugged yourself at the end of the video, it made me smile and I gave myself a hug as well. Thank you for this great video or message at the end! <3

[williamtinley]

Can I say how much I love the ending of this video! I also love the background music which adds authenticity and truth to what you’ve said!

[ChocoBunny]

you are so beautiful inside and out, and remember every person on this planet looks unique, and has a different body type and shape. no one is perfect. people that shame you are insecure about themselves. being human and you is what makes you beautiful. someone doesnt remember just your body when they meet you. they remember your smile, your attitude, and thats whats important. being kind and yourself <3

[elahbayan]

You just inspired me to love myself even more. You made me realize that I shouldn't let other people define me as a person and to not let the negativity consume my soul. ❤
