I am soooooo sick of hearing that girls have to be stick skinny. Whether it be on tv or in a magazine...you are BEAUTIFUL no matter what size you are!! And I really do mean that, our differences are what make us so unique and beautiful.
I've always been naturally curvy, and it hasn't always been easy to accept. Sure I've wished to be skinnier..but when it comes down to it...I have curves lol. And I've grown to love them!! I see the beauty in having a shape. It makes me who I am and that is a wonderful thing!! The most important thing is to be healthy. As long as you are healthy it shouldn't matter what size you are.
Luckily the standards are slowly drifting. Girls are learning to look in the mirror and love what they see. That is WONDERFUL! Ladies if you've got it flaunt it...you are bootylicious :p
Here are some good examples of gorgeous women who are looked as beautiful by everyone in America and aren't a size 2.

Most importantly feel comfortable in your own skin. When you feel beautful, you look beautiful. :)
i'm totally with you! society has made it out to be that we need to be so thin! i mean, if that is your natural weight that is fine, but if you are starving yourself to be thin that is not the case. any body type is beautiful in it's own way!
