14 Body-Positive Quotes To Get You Ready To ROCK Your Summer
It's time you start loving yourself as you are RIGHT NOW.
Summer is in full swing. You know what else is in full swing? Short shorts, bikinis, cute but barely there dresses and crop tops.
We look forward to summer all winter. The bright long days, the warm sun touching our pale skin, cute clothes and fun adventures with friends.
But this past long, cold winter definitely brought one too many wine nights, tons and tons of pizza and comfort food on the snowy days, and little-to-no motivation to hit up the gym.
They say that summer bodies are made in the winter but I guess we missed that memo.
Or, maybe that memo is completely wrong. Every body can be a summer body, right? Right!
Sure, you may start off the season a little unsure of how much leg the shorts are showing or how you think the bikini top is fitting the wrong way. But you’re wrong.
