Girl Talk: Stop Comparing Yourself to Unrealistic Beauty Standards.

We just want all of our besties to see this video and take into account that 90% of the beauty standards and images you see that is pushed by the media isn’t real.

And this is with no shade: Jodie Joe, the face of fashion nova, has had surgery and it’s still photoshopped, altered and edited in realtime to make her look a certain way.

Stop comparing.

Stop consuming.

Stop trying to fit the mold when you were designed to break it.

Choose health and fitness over aesthetics. Prioritize your well-being, focusing on nourishing your body, staying active, and reprogram your mind to have a positive mindset.

Why?

Because true beauty radiates from within, and when you feel strong and healthy, it reflects in your confidence and energy.

Set realistic goals, celebrate your progress, and surround yourself with supportive communities that uplift and motivate you.

💌 A love letter to my BFS Ladies:

Here at BFS, while we adore sharing moodboards and celebrating outer beauty and fashion, we want to remind you that your journey in femininity and healed womanhood is about so much more. The true goal is healing, inner confidence and growth. Becoming the woman you aspire to be should transcend your outward appearance.

This journey is a mindset and a lifestyle that not only embodies the essence of a soft life but also breaks generational curses and defies stereotypes often placed upon Black women. It’s about nurturing yourself and starting a journey of self-discovery.

Your God-given superpower as a woman lies in this transformative work. Don’t just look the part—embrace the full, life-changing experience. Don’t cheat yourself from the profound growth and healing and real purpose that awaits you.

With love and inspiration,

The BFS Team 💋

💜meals and health💜

The struggle of having meals that taste good, increase your bodies health and also drop fat is real.

1. a real breakfast

I’ll die with this. Breakfast is a must.

Start your morning with fruit, veggies some carbs and protein. That’s how you stay full over the day and get vitamins and nutrients in right away.

You can also add cucumbers, mint, lemon or lime into your water for the same affect.

You start your day good, it’ll motivate you and bring you energy. Your mood will lighten up and you feel energetic to go about your daily schedule.

My favorite breakfast will forever be porridge, with one banana and fruit. On the side a hot green or camomile tea.

1. lunch or no lunch

Im not huge about 3 meals a day. I eat when I’m hungry. Wether you have a light snack, such as rice cakes, yoghurt, veggies, fruit or have a full meal is really up to you. Just make sure it’s worth the calories and is nutritious.

I usually enjoy chia pudding (put chia seeds in milk/water and a bit of yoghurt with banana or other fruit) or go for a real lunch, when I feel like cooking.

Meals with cabbage, veggies, salad, chicken, turkey, eggs or potato’s are ideal.

When I really go for chicken or any kind of meat, I make sure to use little to no oil or remove it when it’s cooking.

3. dinner

This is important, because with an empty stomach I can not fall asleep.

Dinner is either creatively put together or keep it simple. Normally, I have something that I really enjoy eating. Just keeping out fats and heavy foods that keep you up at night or get you bloated.

I avoid pasta and pizza.

Rice is a go but you gotta measure it smartly, because it can be a calorie bomb.

Potato’s are a go at anytime. They keep you full fast and long and they are low in calorie. Also, have some veggies. It’s actually that simple.

4. hard truth

You ate too much? You work it off and compensate for it.

You can’t expect to be lighter and slimmer the next morning magically.

Be disciplined. Work for what you want to achieve. You body deserves good treatment.

You can achieve anything, just have faith and be patient while you work on your discipline🙏🏻💓

release the guilt of not having it all together yet. how can you plan for a future you never saw? how can you take the right steps when you didn’t even think you’d have a path to walk on? how could you form a five or ten year plan when you barely could see past twenty ? you’re living life for the first time, give yourself grace.

Fig's line "I don't think I'm an artist, I think I'm just a good friend" has not left my head at all. Just...

You're Fig Faeth and your horns came in over the summer and you pick up the bard class as a form of adolescent rock 'n' roll rebellion, and it works! It's exactly the outlet you need! You give a guy you just met drumsticks and you start a band and it's good enough that within a year and a half you're touring. You are, in every sense, good at being a bard.

And then, finally, your junior year, you start to take it seriously. Your art goes from an outlet and a form of rebellion to a practice. A discipline. (Can rebellion exist within a discipline?) Your classmates know what they want to do with their work. They all have a thesis statement. And yeah, there's cohesion in the music you make, but you've never had to think about why you make it. You've never sat down and dissected what it is about bass that speaks to you. You've never poured over your lyrics to pick at any deeper meaning. Why should you? You don't play music for a grand design, you do it to... huh, why do you do it?

(Your art is the one form of self-expression that feels as safe as Disguise Self does, because even if you're pouring your heart onto the page and then screaming it in front of thousands of people, it's not like you're really making yourself known. You can sing I'm lonely, I'm scared, I'm furious, and your fans will sing it right back, and there will still be the distance between performer and audience to keep your heart safe.)

Now you're being asked to look inward to explain the artistic choices you're making, and you can't help but recoil at that, because you'd rather do anything than look inward. Meanwhile, your classmates have no problem with it, so you start to wonder if you're a real artist at all. Can your art be authentic if it only exists to bolster a thesis statement? Has your art been unauthentic this whole time because you've never really thought about a thesis statement before? Is that what makes it art, and not just the next track on somebody's teen angst playlist?

You can't think about yourself— acknowledging your own existence makes you want to puke. So if your music is an extension of yourself, (and it is, even if it's just because the spotlight reveals only what you want it to,) you can't think about your music. You can't. You have to. Your grade depends on it.

You're Fig Faeth, and you keep multiclassing because you'd rather be a good friend than a great artist. If introspection is what great art demands, then fuck it. You must not be a bard at all.

You know those days when you wake up and you have a whole to-do list to complete, but you can't even get out of bed? When you know what you have to do, but you just don't have the motivation to do it? And then you open your phone, scroll right through social media and find those messages telling you not to rely on motivation, to be disciplined, and to stay consistent with your goals...But the couch is soooo freaking comfortable and you still can't bring yourself to put in the work.

That's the painful truth. Not everyone is disciplined. Not everyone who starts their self-improvement journey can just forget their mood or turn off their feelings. And here comes the magic- when you can't be disciplined, you have to rely on motivation. Or, well, to build it yourself.

There are 2 types of motivation: extrinsic (when you do the task because of an external factor; eg. you work for money) and intrinsic (when you are driven by an internal factor; eg. you study because you find the subject interesting and you want to learn more about it). As you probably figured out, intrinsic motivation will always beat the other type, simply because people with this kind of motivation enjoy their level-up journey and stop looking for results. When you actually like what you do, you are able to stay consistent and reach your goals effortlessly. So ask yourself: What do you think is interesting or meaningful? Can you implement these things in your routine?

Another way to get motivated is by surrounding yourself with people that inspire you. For example, if you want to get fit, go to the gym when it is the most crowded. Look at people that work toward their goals. I guarantee you will be more likely to complete your sets. Finding a community or talking to friends (with the same interests as you) can boost your mood and make you feel understood.

You don't have to do this alone!

Something about motivation: Motivation is often divided into two phases: in the first phase, the individual establishes a goal, while in the second phase, they attempt to reach this goal. It is easy to be enthusiastic when you haven't started yet. The difficult part comes when you have to keep going. For the days when you just don't have it in yourself, try making everything easy. Study for 5 minutes, go to the gym and walk for ten minutes on the treadmill, meditate for one minute, read two pages. Also, listen to music, make it enjoyable, make it seem like the action itself is a reward. If that doesn't work, then simply play your favorite song and try doing the task until the end of it.

Hack: Make extrinsic motivation work for you! Set a reward and let the magic begin!

There isn't a wrong way to complete a task - stick with what works for you!

People often say that motivation doesn’t last. Well, neither does bathing – that’s why we recommend it daily. – Zig Ziglar

I hope this helps!
