Dear Body (inside and out),

Today I am going to make you some promises and I always keep a promise. Sometimes it is easy to take you for granted and forget how amazing you truly are so this one is for you. 
1. I promise not to compare you to others bodies and strive to be someone else. I will inste…

Yesterday I spoke about how great I thought the Plus Size Wars documentary on channel 4 was and I touched on the fact there is a very negative response. Things exploded and this is my response.

I have really enjoyed reading all the answers I have been reading to these questions and thought it only fair that I give mine after so many ladies have been open and honest. I managed to avoid the actual article as I don't read magazines. I hate all the body shaming, celebrity obsessed, sister…

It's that time again. As I told you before back in the first post this  is a challenge put together by the beautiful Vicky from The Curved Opinion. This is all about just feeling good. That day when you get ready for no special reason and just feel great. Capture that moment in a picture and j…

So as you may remember I wrote a post for #bodyconfidenceweek and not long after I noticed lots of the fabulous blogging ladies I follow popping up with a body positivity workshop which I loved reading. I decided that I really wanted to be a part of this so even though I am a little behind the lov…
