To the person who is about to judge..
​
..the girl wearing make-up in the gym.
Did you know that she never gets a chance to go out and feel pretty, because she spends all her time trying to take care of her children at home?
Did you know that she tries to make the most out of her one single hour, 3 days a week?
..the girl wearing the bright leggings that show her dimples.
Did you know that she was once scared to even go to the gym, out of fear of what people may think?
She once thought that the gym was a place for the already “fit” people and that she didn’t belong.
Did you know that going to the gym, and wearing those leggings, makes her feel empowered?
..the thicker girl wearing the crop top.
Did you know that she has already lost 50 pounds?
Did you know that her self-esteem has sky-rocketed, and now feels that she could do anything she puts her mind to?
Did you know that your opinion of her does not matter?
Because she knows her worth now, and nothing is getting in her way.
..the underweight girl who’s in the gym.
Did you know that she isn’t in the gym to lose weight, but to gain weight?
Did you know that in her gym bag, she has different protein powders, snacks, and her next meal so she can do her best to try and eat more?
Did you know that she would give anything to gain an extra 10 pounds?
..the girl who is using an exercise machine incorrectly.
Did you know that she finally decided to make a change, for the better?
Did you know that both her parents are on the road to heart disease, and she doesn’t want to end up that way?
Did you know that even though she has no idea how to do it, she is going to get healthier?
..the girl who’s always working out, rain or shine.
Did you know that her husband belittles her, and makes her feel like nothing?
Did you know that going to the gym, or taking a long walk, is her way to get away from it all?
That exercising is her way of surviving?
So, to the person who is about to judge.. don’t.
