Super Size 16 - THANK YOU IGIGI

I would like to commend IGIGI for creating such a great short video featuring the stunning Fluvia Lacerda. The video features a beautiful woman with all her curves and grandeur.




There is this movement that I've heard about , it's called the Fat Acceptance Movement. I like that. I know that this movement is NOT:


- A call to live an unhealthy lifestyle


Maybe that is what needs to be broken down first. It is not encouraging to live an unhealthy lifestyle. You see all of these weight loss commercial, stating that belly fat and folds and a swollen belly is unattractive - says who? Who sets these standards? No wonder we all are our own worse critics.

I love to eat. I'm the poster child for yoyo diet. I've given up dieting :). I told my parents that I have been this way since I was a child, they have to accept it. Some may think I've given up on myself. I say, life is too short, we all will die in some form or another. I don't want to waste another minute of it feeling bad about myself or about my double chin or my double wide paddle feet.

I'm fucked with bad genes from my paternal grandfather's side - diabetes, hypertension, cancer . I have a 25 % chance of getting these conditions. But again, I don't want to sit here and worry about it.

I love to dance (ballroom, hip hop etc) and I love to hiking to enjoy nature. I don't let my fatness stop me from enjoying these things. My heart loves when I do these things every step of the way. I love to get lost in a foreign city and take photos of its people and sights. I love music and I am also a fan of the aesthetics and talent of fashion. I still have a long way to go but I am finally starting to not be too hard on myself. It's a great feeling. The opinions and thoughts of others have nothing to do with me :)

I don't know how long I have in this human experience. I might as well enjoy it.
