Maggie Yumi Brown = Classy, Elegant and beautiful woman.
These past couple of days each brick that I built to help me feel good about my body and the way it is has just been knocked down one by one. In this society with the media and people’s general opinions on the fact that skinny is better it makes me feel like maybe I should exercise 3 hours a day and start dieting again. I see these women and their like I have lost weight and everyone is like ohh, she looks so good, blah, blah blah…Even though this is the third time she has lost the weight after gaining it again.
With the media it’s just non-stop skinny, skinny, skinny and it just kind of got to my head like I am not pretty unless I am a size 8/size 2 in the USA. Another thing is you feel like you can’t look good, you can’t wear this unless you become skinny, lose weight. Those are the thoughts that will make the cycle to begin again. Those thoughts of my body is not good enough, I need to be like this. It’s not good.
So I went online and I found something that showed me that you can be a size 14,16,18 whatever and still be beautiful and dress well…all those things. That’s why I am going to start this series of plus sized women with pictures, video…the whole shebang. For motivation because clearly the media is going the opposite way were the women are just getting smaller and smaller.
Ok, firstly, on my hunt I found out about Maggie Yumi Brown who is a plus sized model and what I love about her is her style and elegance. She looks like she owns her body and that gave me confidence to embrace my body and work with what I have.
Be Happy.
Enjoy your holiday.
Learn to love yourself before you can truely love others.
Be spontaneous and most of all feel good doing it.
