SUPERRRRRRR Fun Story!! Yesterday my best friend texted me asking if I was on TV. I said Uhh no, not that I know of!
Apparently her step mom said she saw me on Inside Edition. She took a picture of her TV screen and THIS PICTURE from my IG was on there! They were doing a segment on #Fatkini and MY picture was included in it!! hahahahaha
Here is the link to the full segment if you're interested: http://www.insideedition.com/videos/2997-overweight-women-proudly-show-off-curves-in-fatkinis
I think this was an AWESOME segment that highlights a movement of women being unapologetic and accepting of their bodies despite society's standards of beauty.
So ladies- If you're so inclined, show off your gorgeous bodies in your #Fatkinis...Or not-so-fatkinis...Or whatever you wear that makes you feel beautiful!!
Here is another shot from that day! :flowerforyou:

Love it! You look fabulous and happy!:drinker:0

It's weird that they didn't ask you first, but congrats! You look absolutely fabulous!0

I'm totally kind of jealous of your self-confidence.
You look amazing!0 -
I would say "project get sexy" is complete and successful already! Wow you are beautiful.
Keep pumping up the jams though. pump them up.0 -
Can they just use your picture like that? And not even inform you?0
-
if she used a website like instagram or facebook technically the photo is property of that website, so they would just need permission from them not the uploader.Can they just use your picture like that? And not even inform you?
looking good OP!0 -
You look FABULOUS Angela!! They noticed your radiating beauty and had to use you in their segment.0

Bravo to you. lovely lady! What is with the usage of the word "fat", though?! Can they ditch that awful reference already?! Hopefully, with examples like YOU showing the rest of us how it's done this will be a turning point. Thanks for sharing!0

I posted that picture in a public forum. My profile is public for anyone to see. I know the risk of doing that- whether it results in something positive or negative. In this case I think it was SUPER positive. :drinker:0 -
did you give them permission to use your picture or was it up for public use?0

There's nothing wrong with the word "fat". It's an adjective. I'm fat- That's a fact lol The word "Fat" is no different than the word "skinny"...The are just opposites. Yet "Fat" has such a negative connotation. In my opinion, the word "Fatkini" takes back control of the word...So then all the people using that word in a negative and hurtful way will have to find a new word lol
I see nothing wrong with it :flowerforyou:0 -
You look amazing! I love the pattern on your bikini! Your confidence is awesome too! I'm working on mine, and I hope to rock like you do :flowerforyou:0

I love that you took the commercial in a good way, I for one would be mad because they kind of stole the picture without asking. Nevertheless, you look beautiful and I'm so jealous of your confidence ♥

You are stunningly gorgeous and oozing with confidence!0

You look wonderful. I hope this isn't too personal but I would absolutely love to know where you brought your two piece. This is a problem only a fellow busty girl could relate to but I dream of a suit "top" where the bottom is under my "girls" rather than cutting me off midway in an uncomfortable and unflattering way. (and the pattern is so cute and funky!).0

Swimsuits For All or Monif C (WAAAAY expensive!) are the best for big boobies!

Love Torrid! And I'll be looking into the rest. Forever 21has always sounded like a size 2 store to me so I've never ventured there. I know pin up girl/vinatge clothing places have good styles too.
Ps...the quote is a mess...0 -
You're gorgeous! Love that suit!0
