As Lovato put it, &#8220;Life is not worth living unless you&#8217;re living it for yourself. If you&#8217;re doing things for other people it&#8217;s not going to work out.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Part of getting to such a positive place involved Demi&#8217;s focus on&nbsp;embracing her body just as it is. &#8220;Whenever I was in the gym over the past couple years, I was doing it to a very unhealthy extreme,&#8221; she shared. &#8220;And I think that&#8217;s what led me down a darker path. I was still engaging with these behaviors.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"text-2\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"59.5\">\n<section data-textblock-tracking=\"text-block-text-only\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\" readability=\"9\">\n<p>After taking the month of October off from the gym, Demi came to a very important realization: &#8220;I have to be OK with where [my body] is at in this moment. I don&#8217;t have to lie to myself and tell myself I have this amazing body. All I have to say is I&#8217;m healthy\u2026 I&#8217;m healthy and I accept for the way that it is today in this moment without changing anything.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I love the person that I am today,&#8221; she later remarked.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"video-int-txt-3\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"35.5\">\n<section data-textblock-tracking=\"text-block-video-text\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\" readability=\"11\">\n<p>With Demi&#8217;s lowest lows finally in the rearview, she&#8217;s&nbsp;hopeful her future won&#8217;t be defined by her past.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Genuinely I just want people to remember that I&#8217;m a singer. A lot of the things that have been through have out shined my success in the music industry. I just want people to remember that that&#8217;s what I want to give to the world, so please focus on that and not the other things,&#8221; the star expressed.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"text-4\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"60.5\">\n<section data-textblock-tracking=\"text-block-text-only\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\" readability=\"11\">\n<p>It&#8217;s quite possible Demi&#8217;s painful experiences have inspired new creative material, which she confirmed is right around the corner.<\/p>\n<p>She shared, &#8220;It&#8217;s important to remember that I am so cautious this time around of jumping back into things. I&#8217;ve really decided to take my time with things. When the time is right to release new music I will, and nobody is more anxious than me. I am dying to release new music\u2026 There is a reason it&#8217;s taking longer and it&#8217;s only because I&#8217;m trying to perfect that music for you guys.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"text-5\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"56.5\">\n<section data-textblock-tracking=\"text-block-text-only\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\" readability=\"3\">\n<p>Given Demi&#8217;s current outlook, it&#8217;s safe to say it will be worth the wait.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/news\/1089011\/demi-lovato-s-first-major-interview-in-more-than-a-year-will-inspire-self-love?cmpid=rss-000000-rssfeed-365-topstories&#038;utm_source=eonline&#038;utm_medium=rssfeeds&#038;utm_campaign=rss_topstories\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">via:: E!
