For as long as I can remember, I’ve been so conscious about my body weight. Every meal felt like a calculation, every mirror felt like a test. Growing up plus-size in a world that praises thinness made me question my own worth for far too long.
But I’m done letting a number define me. I’m proud of the body that carries me through life with strength, beauty, and resilience. My worth isn’t measured in pounds or inches — it’s in the way I show up, the way I love, and the way I live unapologetically.
To every plus-size woman who has ever felt unseen: you are powerful, you are worthy, and you are absolutely enough. You don’t have to shrink yourself for anyone. Take up your space, proudly.
