Just Wear The Dang Shorts

I remember very vividly when I was a senior in high school walking out of the gym and a woman on the street looking at me and saying “if I had legs like yours, I wouldn’t be seen in shorts”. And my poor little 18 year old heart broke. I had just got out of a tough workout and then all I was seen for was the cellulite on my legs.

Let me tell you how long it took for me to wear shorts again. Literally years. Like 7 years. Even on the hottest days in the summer I would be outside in full length leggings or jeans. Never buying jean shorts or running shorts. Until one day I decided to take my confidence back.

Not much about my body had actually changed since that day, but I decided I was done being too hot because I didn’t want to wear shorts. I was done having people ask me if I was hot in those jeans. I was done letting one rude comment define what I showed up in.

So the moral of the story is to just wear the dang shorts. Your cellulite doesn’t define you and honestly most people dont even notice. And if they do, so what?! Wear the shorts and be comfortable in the heat. I promise you, you are so much more than your body and what you wear.
