Hello! Hrm, Where to start?
Well I've just been back to exercising more or less after being sexually assaulted throughout my short life-time. I always thought my weight or the way I looked caused these things to happen to me. Slowly I'm starting to think it wouldn't of matter if I was fat, fatter, underweight, healthy, small, short, tall, dainty or wide framed. Which is a relief of course my brain still finds ways to tell me otherwise with my low self esteem or "hatred" I suppose you would call it.
I consider this a success or achievement for the way I think, it's helped me lose 20kg I still have a little more to go but I feel more comfortable within my self knowing that I'm healthier psychically and to a degree mentally about what has happened.
The only thing I'm slightly annoyed with is letting these two individuals ruin some aspect of me and it's taken me a couple of years to realize that I have the power to reject their hold over me in a mental sense after so many years. Do I think I was at fault? well when it happened yes, But I've come to learn that most people will blame themselves for sexual assault to process what has happened to them.
I didn't deserve what happened to me, I can gain my power back now in my early adulthood life and that comfort is one I haven't felt in years. So I'm slightly proud of myself but finding it difficult to come to grips with being more feminine as I'm taking this one step at a time.
My exercise goal is to train for Touch Mudder in 2015 and complete it
Thank you for taking the time to read.
Kind Regards
