In a world that profits off our self-doubt, choosing to stay exactly as you are is a radical act of resilience. I’ve spent too many years waiting for my “real life” to start—waiting for a certain number on a scale to give me permission to be happy, to be stylish, or to be seen.
Here is why weight loss shouldn’t be your 2026 priority either:
🚩 Diet culture is a thief: It steals your time, your mental energy, and your bank account. It’s designed to make you fail, so you keep coming back for more.
🚩 GLP-1s aren’t the “answer”: While they’re the latest trend, a shot can’t fix a relationship with yourself. True peace doesn’t come in a syringe; it comes from unlearning the lie that your body is a problem to be solved.
🚩 Diets are built to fail: Statistics show that the vast majority of intentional weight loss attempts fail long-term. Like 95% of them. Why spend 2026 chasing an unattainable goal?
🚩 Happiness starts now, not “after”: You don’t need to earn the right to take up space. Your life is happening today. Tying your happiness and worth to outside validation is a recipe for disaster.
2026 is about expansion, not restriction. It’s about more joy, more movement that feels good, and more memories that have nothing to do with calories.
