I found this slide show over at Ragen Chastain’s Dances With Fat. I don’t know how many of my readers follow her blog, but she is an ace research sleuth and health at every size activist.
Check out the slide show and let me know what you think. After a few days of twitter being swamped with messages of congratulations for the women who dieted themselves into the summer’s bikini, this was a refreshing message to receive.
After reading each and every slide, I have come to the conclusion that I really need to love my body more. Our bodies are amazing things. They need to be appreciated; not manipulated, hated, distorted, maimed.
Let’s make a pact to do something today to show the love we have for our bodies. What will you be doing?

Just watch the slideshow. That was pretty exciting. From now on I’ll spend at least 30 minutes per day for cardio work. I promise.

I love this slide show! It’s awesome to see women of all body types celebrating their own bodies – strength, power, beauty & acceptance.
Personally, I’ve been every weight between 100-200 pounds in the last ten years. I’ve given up dieting & just try to BE healthy. (much easier)
I wore a bikini last weekend. Three pregnancies & two c-sections later, I wore a red bikini on the beach. I held my 6 month old & strutted my stuff. I hope more ladies do too.
