Do you know how much courage it takes to stand in front of the mirror naked? For me, it’s a task. One that I rarely do.
So just imagine the courage it takes for a model of size (paid or otherwise) filled with the insecurities and burdens of our plus size world. When I opened the link to the October Issue of Plus Model Magazine I was floored. And certainly not in a bad way. Definitely in a very gay little boy falls out on the dance floor kinda way. I immediately began to scream, “YAAAAAASSSS hunty!”

The words in this issue speak of body wellness – a topic we now embrace in fatshion. It’s important to love all of our curves. The rolls, the jiggles – everything! But we should also work on being our best and our healthiest. The imagery in this issue provides the foundation fatshion needs to continue this conversation. Yes I love my body, but how am I loving my body.

I don’t stand in the mirror naked because I know I ate that entire pint of Chunky Monkey ice cream. Even after telling myself I wouldn’t. I let life get to me sometimes. You know, working full time, blogging, being social, and of course blogging some more. But while reading this issue of PMM, I’m reminded that I am human and each day I get to press the reset button.
