I Took More Hell For Being Fat

After Being Called Cherubic And Chubby, I'm Rocking A Bikini!

I Know My Idea Of Beauty Isn't What Most People's Is, And The Fact That I'm Getting The Opportunity To Show My Beauty And Work With Incredible Photographers That Actually Take Me Out Of My Comfort Zone And Allow Me To See Myself Through Their Work In A Different Way - It's A Real Honor.

I've Learned That All You Can Be In This World Is You. No Matter How Much You Mess With Yourself, With Surgery Or You Know, Clothes Or Cut Your Hair Differently Or How Much You Wish And Pray And Dream That You're Gonna Wake Up As Someone Else, It's Never Gonna Happen. You Have One Life And One Opportunity, And All You Can Be Is The Best You.

To Wake Up In England And Have The Newspaper On Your Front Door With A Headline That Says, 'ozzie's Beach Whale Of A Daughter,' Doesn't Really Do Much For Your Self-esteem At All.

I Call Myself A Ffp: Former Fat Person, And When You're An Ffp, You Will Always See In Yourself What People Used To Bully You For.
