What Should My Body Feel Like at My Ideal Weight?

June 14, 20262 min read

The biggest difference isn't what you see in the mirror.

It's that your attention is on living rather than on how uncomfortable your body feels.

It shows up in the little moments. Looking in the mirror one morning and noticing your muscles. Feeling confident in the way your trousers sit on your waistline. Walking into a room and not immediately scanning for where you can hide.

It's an internal feeling

When you're on a weight loss journey you're often seeking external validation. From friends, from family, from the mirror, from the scale.

When you reach your ideal body, none of that matters anymore.

You internally feel good.

You're comfortable in your clothes and in your skin. You're happy to walk around the house naked. Your shoulders and chest open up with pride as you walk down the street and into the office.

You start connecting more presently with your partner. Feeling centred, joyful, playful.

You stop thinking about food

You no longer nitpick over small deviations from your diet.

You spontaneously go to the pub and order the pulled pork burger because you want it. Not because you think it's going to make you fat. In fact you're not even thinking about that. You're just thinking about what you feel like eating and enjoying it.

You wake up differently

Not only with energy but looking forward to your day.

You're the one making plans and inspiring ideas for others because you have the confidence, the energy and the inspiration to embrace the day. Rather than feeling self conscious, depressed and uncomfortable in your body and just wanting to stay home in your sweats, you're asking yourself how can I really maximise this day?

Your relationship with exercise transforms

Exercise feels enjoyable. Fun. Non negotiable — not because of fat loss but because it makes you feel strong, capable and confident.

When you see yourself working out in the mirror it reinforces how strong you are. How capable you are. How awesome you are for keeping going.

She chooses to move her body not from a place of fear or lack. Not because she hates where she is. That version of her is in the past.

She chooses to move her body because day by day it makes her feel stronger, more capable and good.

And then something unexpected happens

The people around her start making subtle shifts too. Choosing to eat healthier. Moving their bodies more. Asking her questions that make her feel knowledgeable and proud.

She realises she has inspired them. Not through telling them what to do. But through prioritising herself.

By putting herself first, by investing in her body and her health and her vitality and her mental wellbeing, she has quietly inspired the people she loves most.

And that in itself is awe inspiring.
