So true!
I want to make a huge poster full of things that motivate me, like quotes, pictures, my goals, etc. I’ll take some time to make a sample today & think about what exactly I want it to look like & tomorrow I’ll buy everything I need.
One of my favorite quotes.

I just want this all on my blog.
- Not true. Certain clothes don’t look good on certain bodies. Fact.
- I love the beach regardless of my size.
- I love myself regardless of my weight. Yes, there are things I want to change, but overall, I do love myself. I might not love my body but I love my personality and my big sexy brain.
- Tight clothes don’t always look amazing. And some ‘big’ people rock em better than stick figures
- Twig legs are far from sexy. Seriously. Looking like you’re gunna snap when you walk? Not cute.
- Losing weight isn’t gunna change your hair… It’s still gunna matter (to you, at least) if it doesn’t look good or if it’s messy or too short or flat or whatever. Losing weight doesn’t change that you have to care about other aspects of your appearance.
- Why are people touching your stomach in the first place? Weird… (Also, I personally don’t flinch when people touch my stomach. Yeah, they know its gunna be squishy. Look at me. Do I look like my abs are rock hard? NO.)
- I won’t… Ever. My boobs are too big for just a sports bra. And if I want to wear a tank top, I’m gunna wear a tank top, including now. Also, a lot of gyms have a ‘dress code’ or at least guidelines… At least ones I’ve visited
- Yes it does. Idgaf if you’re a size 4 or a size 14, wearing a dress that’s too small/tight is not appealing.
- Guarantee I DID have a prom date, and it was my BOYFRIEND of THREE FUCKING YEARS, and yeah motherfucker, I was a size 16, so FUCK OFF for assuming these sexy bitches won’t get a date if they aren’t smaller.
- Honey, I show skin, and I look hot. I just don’t show my stomach or my thighs. And that’s not because I’m fat, it’s because showing off your body isn’t generally appropriate or a good way to gain respect.
- Why is this such a big deal? I don’t have a “skinny friend”… I have friends, period. Regardless of weight. I don’t judge my friends based on their weights and if your friends do, FIND NEW ONES PLEASE because you deserve better.
- Cute, yes. Essential to hotness? No. Also, belly button rings are a pain in the ass to have and take care of sometimes.
- If these guys aren’t interested in you because of your weight, then they aren’t worth another millisecond of your time. ON TO THE NEXT ONE.
- I look good in my ‘self portraits’. Doesn’t matter what size I am or you are, we can still take beautiful pictures
- Uhm. Yes it does. Regardless of size, if you’re living with another person, you should wear clothes that cover the important bits plus some. Its called common courtesy.
- It’s not like you’re being held up by two spindly weaklings. The key word is CROWD. I really doubt that anyone is gunna drop when you crowd surf unless you’re like 450lbs, in which case you should probably lose weight to get healthy as opposed to being able to crowd surf… Just my opinion tho
- Not really. Bigger body=More mass=Easier to barrel through people
- My friends are hot regardless of MY size. What the fuck does this even mean?
- I know skinny people who eat ten times more than me. And you might still have quite an appetite, especially if you’re really active. Soo… No.
- What? This… I don’t even… What? Listen. Your boobs are boobs. Boys like them regardless of the size. And again… If someone judges you based on boob size… They are soo not worth your time and energy
- Maybe. Maybe not. Losing weight is not the key to happiness. Dropping pounds and pants sizes does not guarantee that you’re going to be ecstatic and turn into little miss mary fucking sunshine.
Sorry for the rant, guys. These just pissed me off for some reason today.
I just want to respond to some of this :/ Okay, so I wrote this list originally. It’s mine, which means no, you don’t have to agree with me. They don’t have to be your reasons, they don’t have to mean anything to you, or make sense to you, or motivate you in any way, and you don’t have to believe in them. They are for me, and it’s not like I’m forcing them on someone else—I’m not saying “oh, YOU have to be skinny to have these things. and by the way, i’m going I’m going to force you to want them”—so why should they piss you off? And these are my personal motivators for very good reasons; in response to your criticism:
- Okay, sure, but I’d really like to look great in the cute clothes I want to wear. I don’t want to feel like I wear baggy sweats because I think those shorts or that tunic just accentuate how fat I am. It would just be really nice to never have to think, “Hey, does this outfit make me look fat?”
- You might, but I don’t. All my friends talk about going to the beach and how much they love it, and I sit around telling them I hate the beach—and I don’t like it solely because I’m ashamed of my body. So I’d say losing weight is pretty important for me if I want to like going to the beach.
- That’s great for you, and I truly do envy you for being able to love yourself regardless of your size. However, again, it’s one of my reasons and not yours, and I feel like my body is keeping me from loving myself. I want to change that.
- Right, but I’m not one of those people. I can fit in tight clothes too, they just don’t look nearly as good on me when I’ve got a belly that makes me look five months pregnant, as opposed to if I was actually thin.
- It’s too bad I find twig legs attractive. In skinny jeans especially.
- Yeah, but I think skinny girls look amazing even when they just got out of bed. Messy hair, no makeup, and all that. I want to feel like I look pretty even when I don’t try, because at the moment I feel like I look decent only when my hair looks really good.
- I have a guy friend who always pokes my stomach. All the time. And I hate it, so much, because of all the flab I have there. Sometimes I’ll be joking around or hanging out with him, and I’ll feel fine, and then he’ll poke my stomach. I get 50000x more self conscious.
- When I go to the gym, I always see these women and girls who run on treadmills in sports bras and tight sweatpants. They’ve always got an amazing stomach. It’s disheartening and motivating at the same time; I still wear baggy workout clothes because tight ones make me much too self conscious.
- Too-tight dresses would be much less unappealing if my stomach didn’t bulge out all the fucking time.
- Well then, good for you. I’m jealous. But not all of us are so lucky. Not a single boy in my school finds me attractive enough to ask me to prom. It’s like social natural selection—everyone wants to be shallow for prom. Just get a date who’ll look good in pictures. Yeah, not her.
- Sometimes it is appropriate to show skin in certain areas. Certain areas where I’m fat. What am I supposed to do when everyone’s in a bikini?
- Okay, maybe it’s selfish of me, but it’s also kind of human nature. When I’m hanging out with a friend and spot a cute guy that I’m attracted to, I want to be able to talk to that guy. Without my friend unintentionally diverting his attention just because she’s physically more beautiful (skinnier, in my eyes) than I am.
- I just think they’re hot. I never said they were “essential to hotness.” I don’t even know where that came from. But they’re not going to be hot on me if I have fat rolls covering them up.
- Attraction is a physical thing, and I believe that most if not all relationships begin on a semi-physical level. If you don’t think a person is cute, you’re not going to consider a relationship with them right off the bat. You might not even talk to them or glance at them. Sure, there are people who are lucky and find someone who falls in love with them regardless of their physical appearance. But don’t tell me the majority of people don’t first fall for someone because they like how they look.
- I don’t like my self portraits.. or, actually, any pictures of myself. Because I’m ashamed of my body. Period.
- I’d obviously ask my roommate first if she’d mind me walking around without pants on and just underwear. I do it at home and it’s just so much more comfortable for me. Underwear and a baggy t-shirt. But if someone’s in the room with me, I’d still be so self-conscious.
- Honey, I’ve crowd-surfed once my entire life. And I was dropped. I wasn’t even up to 140 lbs at the time. People dropped me because I was obviously too heavy, and I felt terrible about it.
- Sure. If you think so. Why don’t we try it and see? I personally think that if I’m thinner, I won’t have to push people as far apart to weave through them as when I’m twice as big.
- When I go on vacations, I usually meet new people and make friends, and the girls are always skinnier than me, and they always get guys. I’m always the only one without a boy. I’d just like some hot male friends when I go on a cruise or to a beach or something.
- Great! I’m not one of them. If I eat more, I get fatter. That’s all.
- I feel that having bigger boobs makes my big stomach less prominent when I wear a t-shirt. If and when I’m thin, I know I won’t worry about my boob size. That’s just me.
- Okay, but being skinny will make me happier if my body is at least 80% of the reason I feel so fucking down sometimes.
I respect your opinions, I respect your wonderful self-confidence, and I wish I shared your views. But I don’t, and I’m not asking you to agree with me. You don’t have to understand my reasons. Just respect them, please?
Sandra, I love you lkjasfsjlksfdljkfds

“Sharks Don’t Cry”
This is one of the most disgusting acts of animal cruelty I have ever seen. Some people seem to only have a problem with animal cruelty when it’s happening to something cute and fluffy - but practices like this are taking place worldwide on a daily basis and few people are even batting an eyelid.
Tiger sharks are endangered to say the least. This clip is of a baby tiger shark, it’s fins are sliced off to be sold, and the bleeding, finless shark is then thrown back into the ocean to die. All this time the shark is still alive. It’s on land and it cannot breathe properly. Could you bear to watch a kitten have its paws cut off and left to die? No? Then why let this happen? Shark finning is still legal in many countries across the world. Help make it stop.
Please, reblog this or donate money to raise awareness and help fight the hideous cruelty of shark finning.And they say sharks are the most dangerous..
Out of all the animal cruelty videos I’ve seen, shark finning is always the one that hurts me most.
this is disgusting.
