when i 1st got into kpop i was at my heaviest, ate unhealthy, didnt workout, haTED myself to the point where id cry in every fitting room i went into. my self confidence had always been low since i was always picked on for being ugly, "the fat sam", my stretch marks, etc.
at 1st i was only really a bts + gg stan, the 1st introduced to me were rv + blackpink, both full of beautiful very skinny girls. i know how unhealthy my mindset was and i don& #39;t agree with this at all, but then i felt if i ever wanted to feel pretty, i needed to be their size.
my friend had recently lost weight so i tried things she suggested, but because she started at a much lower weight than me, nothing was really effective. i lost hope & found ways to distract myself, which was dancing to kpop songs. this was about the same time i changed my diet -
since i thought of this as plan b.
i cut out junk/juice, ate veggies, & as hard as it seems, once you cut it out you honestly wont crave it anymore. i started to teach myself choreo to kpop songs i knew in my room, did this for hours every night. i started from the easy ones & -

overtime worked my way to the hard/more exhausting ones. i kept this up for months, never going to a gym, just dancing in my room to my favorite songs, i started realizing my clothes got looser. this was when i realized i was losing weight, & in 4 months time i was down -
2 1/2 pant sizes. the way i felt when working out completely changed my reason to lose weight. it came to me just wanting to love who i saw in the mirror & feeling healthy, something i had never felt- like ever. i didnt measure myself & only noticed in march i was down 50 lbs -
when my mum bought a new scale & forced myself to check. once i realized how much my body was changing i kept pushing myself, & now within about 10 months, ive lost 70 lbs and dropped almost 6 pants sizes & although i have my bad days, im the happiest ive ever been about my body
if you dont feel comfortable in a gym, or dread the word excercise, make it fun & enjoyable for yourself. if you hate doing pushups or burpees, put on those "random kpop dance" challenges & see far you can make it, or make a goal to learn every dance on the playlist.
people can clown me and call me a koreaboo all they want, but if i never got off my ass and & #39;danced the night away& #39; i dont want to know where id be right now. zumba is shook.
if you made it this far and didnt notice the typo in the title thank you
