Step 1 - Love Who You Are
Many people ignore the fact that the idealised body images that surround us are just that - idealised - and don't represent what the majority of us are really like. Many of us find ourselves in a relentless pursuit of the elusive perfect figure - leaving us chronically dissatisfied with our appearance.

There's also certain types of top styles and dress styles you need to avoid so your shoulders don't look even wider.
