668: How to Feel Confident in Your Body Right Now — Not When You Lose the Weight20 aug9 min

Hey hey beautiful human!

So many of us have made a quiet deal with ourselves.

Once I lose the weight, then I will feel confident. Then I will wear the dress. Then I will book the trip. Then I will stop hiding in photos. Then I will finally feel comfortable in my own skin.

Well, I get why that feels true. When the discomfort feels tied to your body, it makes sense to think changing your body will fix it.

But here is the part that so many women do not realize: losing the weight can change your body, but it does not automatically change the way you see yourself.

In this bonus episode of Embrace Your Real, we are talking about the "when I lose the weight" deal so many women make with themselves, why it does not always give you what it promises, and how to start building real confidence in the body you have right now.

What's Discussed:

Why the "I will feel confident when I lose the weight" mindset feels so believable

How the finish line can keep moving even after you reach a goal

Why changing your body does not automatically change how you see yourself

Where confidence actually starts to come from

Why keeping small promises to yourself matters so much
