Send us Fan MailDo you find yourself quietly comparing what you look like to other women? Whether it's us judging ourselves against people we know or not, comparison is a no-win game. This is especially true if we are comparing ourselves to photoshopped and filtered images on Instagram! If we aren't careful, those negative feelings can take over our lives. It's all we think about, and end up obsessing over how to 'fix' our bodies to fit more with what the current ideal body standard is of the moment. Needless to say, spending so much time and energy comparing what we *think* we look like against how others look is a waste of our precious time.
