These days, social media is full of "body positive" influencers, encouraging people to discard societal expectations in favour of accepting and loving your body the way it is. They discourage dieting, eating disorders, self hatred, etc. I fully support this movement, and I agree that weight loss and the pursuit of it can often be intertwined with self-loathing, disordered eating, etc. Skinny doesn't always equal healthy. But, while I do love my body and want it to be healthy, I still do want to be skinnier just for the sake of being skinnier. I have gained 30 lbs since Jan 2020, and while I do want to turn my eating habits around for health reasons, truly one of my motivations is wanting to look better and be "hotter". This attitude is pretty frowned upon by body posi people. Just looking for some input from others. How do you reconcile body positivity with the desire to lose weight to be more attractive?
