Sharing one of the responses to the advise column of our magazine :)

You may think the answer to your body image issue is to lose weight. Ok, you could try that but in another five years, fashion magazines will tell you that ‘plump is in.’ These ‘beauty’ definitions keep changing. Don’t accept them. They are problematic and pull women down. Challenge them. The next time someone tells you to lose weight or whiten your skin say: “THANKS but I quite like myself. Perhaps you could go and learn some social skills.” Irrespective of what people tell you, there are many ways of being beautiful. Beauty lies in grace, in elegance and in self confidence. Beauty lies in dark skin, in a rounded bum and in being petite. In an ideal world there would be multiple definitions of beauty. If you don’t find them around you, create them. Your body is much more than some exterior cover that needs to meet some arbitrary standard of beauty. Cherish your body because it’s young, healthy and because it enables you to do so much. Enjoy all the things your body allows you to do. Don’t give into meaningless comments and comparisons. Start listening to yourself. That is the key to loving your body.

They are here to hear you out :D
