FatShaming


While browsing my Facebook feed, I've come across some posts where someone complimented someone for looking good because they lost some weight.

It got me thinking. Does she mean that she does not look good before because she is fat or because she looks unhealthy that is why the additional weight does not look good on her?

It is 2016.Let's stop fat-shaming ourselves. Let's stop fat-shaming other people. Let's not be clouded with insecurity that fat is bad and skinny is good.

One body-image warrior said that being body-positive is not an idea or advocacy. It is a journey and war. One that we must keep on fighting until the world accepts that we all come from different shapes and sizes.
