Positive Body Images in the media for full figured women

I don't know how many of you saw the really negative rants of the Abercrombie & Fitch CEO on how he didn't want fat, uncool people wearing his clothes. But this is the BEST response I have seen to it from a beautiful, and smart woman. I thought you might want to see the pictures she sent him. I tell you what, confidence and seeing beauty in yourself is half the battle.

Happy Sunday to us all!

    Did you also see that Abercrombie is struggling financially? Somebody is on their way out. Can't insult half the country with no payback.

    Not to mention how difficult he made it for the "cool kids" to now wear his clothes without retaliation.
