OMG! Woman Gets PUNCHED IN THE FACE On Live TV & Everyone Just Seems Cool With It!

By

WHAT do YOU think? “OMG: Woman Gets PUNCHED IN THE FACE On Live TV & Everyone Just Seems Cool With It!”.  Can this ever be right – no matter what the provocation? There’s a Russian TV show where the person who keeps their hands on the car longest wins the car.  This girl was (as part of the game) annoying the guy beside her so he’d leave the car and lose the game.  He snapped, hit her and then the other 3 women in the game BLAMED THE GIRL WHO WAS HIT…  I know every culture has their own norms about this issue but what do you think?

:-( Young BOY WANTS TO DIE because of BULLIES AT SCHOOL

By

SO 🙁 VERY SAD – WHAT DO YOU THINK?  Young BOY WANTS TO DIE because of BULLIES AT SCHOOL!  “I just don’t want to be in this world if somebody don’t want to be my friend.”  Sometimes we forget what it was like to be a kid.  And we also forget the isolation and the pain a bullied kid feels.   As this little boy explains that his Mom will be SAD that he really does want to die but he can’t help it… is heartbreaking.  He says he’s got no one on his side and no one who wants to be his friend and they pick on him everyday.  Hearing his Aunt’s voice cracking as she films him is damned painful.

I’m here rooting for you!

love,

Kara

A step too far for beauty OR a great, bold move? Dimple surgery…

By


AGREE or DISAGREE – WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THIS? #Beauty Girl has surgery to get dimples. Trainee lawyer, Cherelle Campbell, said “When God was giving out dimples I was at the back of the line!” VIDEO: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tHLLwgP3cH8

Cherelle starred in the British documentary, ‘Bodyshockers: My Piercing Hell’. She always wanted dimples just like her celebrity idol Cheryl Cole… so she got surgery to get them. The doctor punched a hole into her cheeks using a scalpel and then used stitches to create her dream dimples.

How did Cherelle get the idea?: “I was online with my friend and we were basically having a joke about what procedures you could and couldn’t do. I was like wow, I didn’t know you could do your dimples!”

When Cherelle first did the operation, the dimples were so deep she was a bit worried but after a few days they settled down and she loves them. They’re like she was born with them!

What do you think? Was this Cherelle boldly taking her life and her beauty into her own hands OR was it a step too far?

I love you and I’m here rooting for you!

"My Ass: A Love Story" one 50+ year old woman's funny, touching body image journey.

By

Self-loathing begins in the home,” says Jill Demby Guest. “Children are taught to hate. How could I have ever fairly assessed my ass when my own mother judged beauty straight from the pages of high fashion magazines. Any derriere larger than standard model fare might call attention to itself. Then others might make critical remarks about it and my mother would have to defend it as being a reflection of her. Like somehow my ass was attached to her and didn’t really have a life of its own. And while I couldn’t change my mother’s thinking, I began to question my own.”

I know Jill and she’s a funny, authentic, talented woman and her journey into embracing her true scrumptious gorgeousness has been AMAZING to watch!  A lesson for us all.

So often we casually dismiss or just plain DISS parts of our body that we may not think we like (e.g. tummy, thighs, bust, behind you name it). Today look at yourself and delight in yourself and who you are 🙂 Do a little DANCE in the mirror!

You are whole and complete girl!  WHOLE and COMPLETE.

Is this FUN, ART, PORN or all of the above? Kim Kardashian…

By

KimKardashianJeanPaulGoudeArtPhotosBe honest with me girl!  YAY or NAY?  Is this FUN, ART, PORN or all of the above? Kim Kardashian was photographed by legendary 74 year old French photographer Jean-Paul Goude.

Kim put baby oil on herself for the photos and slowly peeled off her black cocktail dress.  The photographer says that only the stream of champagne was photoshopped, not Kim’s body.

I’ll be honest with you!  I’m definitely changing.  A few years ago, I would have been judgmental as heck!  And now I’m just marveling at the engineering marvel that is Kim Kardashian’s behind.  My goodness.  I’m just struck by the beauty of having such curves and being a woman.  Seems like a celebration of us.

Feel free to agree or disagree with me girl.  Tell me what you really think!!!
love,

SHOCKING STUDY: Even when big girls have lost the weight, the stigma of "having been fat" persists FOR OTHER PEOPLE!!

By

JenHudsonBeforeAfterblackwhiteSHOCKING STUDY: “Overweight women may never escape the painful stigma of obesity – even after they have shed the pounds”.

The study, published in the peer-reviewed Obesity Journal, looked at whether anti-fat prejudice against women continued after women had lost weight and were now slim.

Dr Latner – lead researcher: “We were surprised to find that currently thin women were viewed differently depending on their weight history.  Those who had been obese in the past were perceived as less attractive than those who had always been thin, despite having identical height and weight.”

— So, according to this study, if you’ve ever been obese or overweight, even if you lose the weight and keep it off there’s still a stigma.

“The findings demonstrate that residual obesity stigma persists against individuals who have ever been obese,” said Dr Latner.  “Even when they have lost substantial amounts of weight. Obesity stigma is so powerful and enduring that it may even outlast the obesity itself. Given the great number of people who may be negatively affected by this prejudice, obesity discrimination clearly needs to be reduced on a societal level.”

I lost 70+ pounds years ago and kept it off and when I tell people or show pictures from my past I can see sometimes that something new comes up for some people…  One person told me they didn’t think they’d have been friends with me back then when I was big…  Ouch!  And some said, it made them look at me differently now.

The thing is I can’t hide who I’ve been and I’m not even going to try!  I know the difference it made to me to transform my health and my life AND love myself even before I was society’s idea of “cute” and if by sharing I can make a difference to even one other person then my heck I’ll share! Even if some people look at me differently!

I love you,
Kara
