So I just read this post about 'letting it all hang out' in the summer, by Fluvia Lacerda, a Brazilian plus size model. She. Is. Gorgeous. First, let me say, my 'thinspiration' pics are always plus size models. I have no desire to be skinny. I want to ROCK my curves. Anyhow, this is what the lovely Fluvia Lacerda looks like: So she writes this blog post about how you should accept your fat body and don't care about the judgements from other people, etc, etc. I'm thinking to myself, she looks amazing, who is judging her? Then I google her and find a 'celebrity weight gain' site that is talking all kinds of smack on her 'chunky arms' and her 'expanding waistline'. I want to cry. Seriously. If you can look like THAT and still get insulted by these people (who are the equivilant to me, of frat boys yelling "fat bitch" at me from their porch) then I just hate this world. I ASPIRE to be as 'fat' and 'chunky'...
Its a great group!!!!
ReplyDeleteHi! I'm only a recent follower of your blog, but I am definitely inspired! I have roundabouts 160 lbs. to lose and would certainly love to join a weight loss support group. I understand if you are only looking for those you've already gotten to know, but I figured it couldn't hurt to throw my name out there! Anyway, I'm daylefraschilla [at] gmail [dot] com :-)
