Like a lot of women, I feel sufficient hatred towards my body to try to reduce it in size, shrink it, make bits of it disappear… whatever you want to call weight loss. But guess what? My body doesn’t like it. It feels marginalized and hurt by my feelings towards it, by the way I deprecate it and punish it and insult it. I would too. It’s like a close friend telling me to just go away forever.

With that in mind, I happily contributed photos to a body-positive little video that’s getting a heady amount of attention from some prestigious body-acceptance types. I’m in it twice! You should watch it! – with the sound on, for the awesome song. It’s the feel-good PSA of the year. :-)
