“I’ve gained weight and I’m ashamed to go to the seaside”


She is thinking of giving up the trip because she doesn’t have a perfect body




Doctor, next week I’m going to the beach, but in the last few months I’ve gained a bit of weight and I’m embarrassed to take off my shirt and wear a swimsuit or shorts. Should I give up the trip or do I do it anyway?

If you are on vacation, you have to enjoy the trip, you have to enjoy the beach, and remember the following: you don’t need to have a perfect body to be able to enjoy your vacation, have fun, talk to friends, flirt and so on.

This myth of the perfect body, or that we have to reach 100% to be able to go to the beach, causes unnecessary stress. Of course, it’s good for us to take care of our health. If you have gained weight and it bothers you, you should exercise more frequently, improve your diet and seek out a nutrition professional.

But under no circumstances would I stop going to the beach, enjoying holidays and having fun because my body isn’t exactly perfect, or how I would like it to be.
