Body image is a difficult issue.
I struggle with it. Almost everyone I know struggles with it in some form or another.
I also pride myself as an athlete. Am I an Olympian? Buahaha! Absolutely not. But I do love anything fun and active.
My sister-in-law recently forwarded this article on to me. It's photographic proof that there is no ideal body type, even for Olympic athletes---and these people use their bodies to make a living.
Check out this article and flip through the pictures. Good stuff!

Does this assuage all my fears about the perfect body image? No. But it does help.
