THIS THIS THIS

When I was 13 I went for a checkup, and the doctor prodded me in my jiggly belly and asked if I ever exercised. It was clear she thought the answer was no. I responded that I ran cross-country on school days and took dance classes 5x a week.

You can exercise a lot and still not have the body that people associate with “health” or “fitness”. Sometimes you’re just built the way you’re built, and that’s okay.
