Social media helps us bond over things that we love, hate, and relate to.
Growing up plus-size, there were so many things that I thought only happened to me. But being on social media and becoming a part of the body positive community has shown me how universal my singular experiences really were and still are.
Also, let's face it, our shared struggles can be really hilarious.

When clothing stores put the plus section as far out of sight as possible. We want to look good too. #plussizeproblems

Why can't we be both?
When a skinny girl say "I'm so fat and ugly" just to gets comments like "you're not fat! You're beautiful!". #growingupfat

Remember to never settle.
Fat girls are allowed to have standards. We don't have to talk to you. I wish some y'all would get that.

Yep, she said it.
No more hashtags. Just sell me fashionable clothes. Keep the bopo separate.

But remember to always set an example for others.
I'm honestly doing what I do so that other people like me understand that nothing will, or can ever stop them.
