The media
M/18 5’9” SW:240 CW: 184 GW: 148
Background: So ever since I can remember I’ve always wanted to be in the media. Acting has always been a skill of mine, and I’ve always wanted to nurture. Recently I’ve been getting more into social media as I want to brand myself to later expand of my talents.
The Problem: because the acting business and media as a whole is face value, being overweight and a man can be disheartening. That I know of no Hispanic overweight man has had major career success unless they are playing someone in comedy, for example, Gabriel Iglesias. I’m not discrediting him, I’m just trying to state that that’s not the lane I wish to go in. This can be taxing on my mental health as I feel like if I don’t have muscles or have a slim body, then I won’t achieve my dreams. Currently, I’ve had really good success with my fat loss and I am super happy with my progress. I can genuinely say that I like myself and I don’t see my body as a tool for self loathing. I enjoy exercise and see nutrition as a tool to get to where I want to be. With that said I guess my old obese self still lives in my head, and is constantly telling me I’m not good or hot enough to post pictures on Instagram or pick up a script.
My Question: How to do get out of the fat person mentality while losing weight?
