B E A U T Y ?

I know I know my blog layout is not complete but I have been itching to write about something for a while. What is beauty and who defines it? Is it the definition that we all read in the dictionary, national magazines or what we see on television? I can't speak for anyone else but myself and I know my definition on beauty is none of the above. My definition of beauty is loving ones self no matter what stage you are at in your life. You could be a teenager going trough puberty, a new mom trying to figure out how your going to loose the baby weight or a woman going through menapouse. I feel every girl, boy, preteen, teenager, woman and man should feel proud of the way they look. I myself have struggled with self image for most of my life. For as long as I can remember I have been "plus sized". That dreaded term no woman wants to hear. Woman are taught that a size 0-2 is beautiful and I believed that for a long time. That all changed one day when I woke up and decided I wasn't going to let my size define me. I don't know what changed in my head that night but all I know is that I wouldn't change this feeling for anything in the world. With that being said I will proudly say...

I'm Mandy and I am plus sized, had two kids and I love every inch of my body!!!
