Well, hello everybody, and welcome back to the Coffee and Bible Time podcast. I am literally so excited to be here. I just have to say, thank you for being so patient as I did transition off to college. Did I mention that this was the Coffee and Bible Time podcast? Clearly I'm a little out of it, okay? And the reason why I would say I am is it's late at night

I've had a long week of school but that isn't going to stop me from a spread in a truth okay

that's what I do on here um I wanted to start off by saying thank you to all of you for who

for who hello hello should I start over

should I start over this is a question I'm asking can you guys give me your feedback should I start

over or should I keep going okay I'll keep going so here I am okay I wanted to thank you guys for your comments on my last video

that I posted on the coffee meppel time YouTube channel, which was on what I do and I'm struggling

with body image. Okay. And I was gone for about a month on the podcast, just settling into college.

It might have been less than a month maybe

it was only a couple weeks i don't know but um i thought that a good podcast to start back on would just

be on something that i'm passionate about right now and that would be body image okay i'm not gonna lie

i was just sitting here preparing for this podcast and i took a selfie of me with my laptop and my Bible and I clicked on it and I cringed a little because there was cellulite on my arm and I was like, what?

Since when do I have cellulite?

So, you know, naturally I adjusted my angle about 13,000 times only to find that you can't really get cellulite to go away on your arm by switching an angle.

So I put my phone down and I was like, you know what?

I'm going to accept my body right now.

And I'm going to continue making this podcast because listen ladies we all struggle with body image

why I don't know maybe because we live in a culture in a society that is obsessed with how your

body looks I really don't think it even matters necessarily your age. I think every

age struggles with body. I know that when I was younger, I actually had a bit of a turning point

in my youth where someone that I considered a close mentor and someone just really close like family told me that

I was fat and I needed to do something to change my weight and do sports or do something.
