Comparing your health (or anything to that matter) to your peers is a great way to boost and maintain insecurities. There is always gonna be a healthier, sexier, younger and so on. Good luck chasing that.
At risk of sounding very banal, comparing yourself to your version from yesterday is the best approach.
- treetalker 1y agoThis is a fair point and I generally agree with you. That said, in this example I'm really using "peers" as a stand-in for where I or someone else in a similar situation will be with little or no regular exercise. (I'm a lawyer in Florida.)
