Shut up. Just fucking stop talking. Stop asking what they ate today. Stop talking about the new diet you heard of. Hold your breath (forever if need be) when a sudden comment of concern arises in your throat. Just, shut up. You think you are helping. I get it. But let’s talk about what really …

I cut my hair. I took nearly 6 inches off. Could you tell? Most people can’t, and now that I see these photos of myself I am realizing that my hair doesn’t look much different at all! Even if there isn’t a dramatic change in how I look, there is a very real change in …
[wc_row][wc_column size=”one-half” position=”first”] [/wc_column][wc_column size=”one-half” position=”last”] [/wc_column][/wc_row] At this point, it should come as no surprise to any of you that your girl (that’s me) has some hang ups.

I’m getting married tomorrow!!! Holy cow. I get to have all the people I love most in the world in one place, and what’s better than all the people you love celebrating you and the person you love?! I don’t think I can appropriately describe the kind of joy and peace I feel right now. Originally …

Body positivity does not ask for your opinion, or unsolicited advice. It doesn’t ask for you to decide if you think it’s something that is “good” or “bad”. It’s never asked you to change who you are, or what you do with your own body. It seems some people still haven’t got the memo, so …

I am so in love with this skirt. It appears to be a normal a-line plus size skirt, but it is the most comfortable, soft, stretchy fabric ever. Every time I put it on I end up keeping in on the whole day and twirling around and telling everyone around me to “feel this it’s …
This week on Instagram I was told something about my body positivity that people like to throw out pretty often. I’m told that body positivity is ok, however “glorifying obesity” is dangerous. I of course responded with something short and snarky, because people on the internet that like to harass me do not get to …
