Personal Inspiration

The links on this page lead to some of my favorite places anywhere on the Internet. If you are a plus size person, as I am, I suggest you bookmark and visit often.

The world around us can be extremely negative with regards to large people, leaving us with negative feelings about ourselves. I try to stay positive and visit these links every so often to get back my sense of balance. I want a clear change from all the negative stereotyping of fat people. I want to know I am not alone. I want to be inspired by others like myself who are living full, rich lives. I come here to rejuvenate and begin to heal and feel good about myself again. I hope these links will do the same for you.

Living Well, Living Plus Size

Read stories of others living in large bodies who are living wonderful lives regardless and it reminds me to do the same. Size doesn't have to slow us down.

Have you ever attended an "all fat" conference or travel cruise party? Read this article, "Fat and Happy: In Defense of Fat Acceptance" by Mary Ray Worley for an idea of how it can change your life.

Plus Size Art

Beauty comes in all size and the proof is here. As you view some of these photos I want you to remember that you are every bit as beautiful as these men or women. Don't think so? Why not? Of course you are. We are all beautiful in our own way. It is not simply being a size 6 which defines beauty.
