Let's take a look at society. As much as we may not want to look at society in this current time that we're in, we kind of have to. See, we have this stigma that if you happen to be plus size, or bigger than average, that you automatically have some form or low self esteem, or something like that.

Well I'm here to tell you, that's not the case.

I'm okay with the word "fat". It doesn't bother me. I have fat, and that's okay. I'm plus size, and that's okay. Over the years, I've come to terms with the fact that I'm just not skinny, and honestly, I'm totally okay with that.

Now we're gonna change our angle a little bit. Sometimes, I say things like "oh i'm so fat" or "I feel fat today" and without missing a beat, someone says "omg no, you're gorgeous". Why does being/having fat have to equate to a person being or thinking that they're less beautiful or attractive? It doesn't. I openly acknowledge the fact that I'm plus size, without diminishing the self esteem that I have for my body, or my looks.

Being plus size is by no means a bad thing. I still wear crop tops and shorts, I still wear dresses that hug my curves. I don't let my size stop me. And you shouldn't either.
