I have put my body through many different experiences throughout my life. In the past, my body has been hated, it has felt self-inflicted pain, it has been willingly starved, and it has been abused by the hands of other. My body has been many different shapes and sizes. It has grown and changed. It has changed me.
I used to hate my body. I used to abuse my body. And I used to let others abuse my body with their words, their hands, and sometimes an unwanted sexual touch. I have viewed my body as disgusting. I have also seen my body only as a vessel for other’s to relieve their sexual desires with.
I have been battling with myself for many years. The battle has been long and emotional, but it has led me to a place of peace, acceptance, and love. At the beginning of my battle, I couldn’t even fathom being in the state of mind I am in now.
I am blessed to be where I am now. I am so happy that I can look at these pictures and smile instead of cry and feel the urge to harm myself in any way. I know now that I do not have to accept the abuse others try to inflict on me. They can keep their abuse. I am in control over how I feel about myself.
This body of mine is amazing, beautiful, sexy, strong, worthy of love, and it is ME.
Namaste. :) Love yourself! It is possible if you try.
What an amazing story-- and what an amazing butt! So happy this this wonderful woman realized how beautiful she really is. <3

My name is Samantha. I am 21 years old. I am originally from Louisiana, but now I’m living in Minnesota. The picture above is at Cascade Falls in Wisconsin. I suffered from disordered eating and poor self-image from the age of 12 until about a year ago. I won’t get into detail, but I yo-yo dieted a lot. I would drop forty pounds in three months, then gain it all back within a few months, and then just do it all again. I never got hospitalized, but I got dangerously close to needing to be. I have caused myself permanent health problems that are more of an inconvenience than a threat to my life, but still, they could have been avoided. I still suffer from time to time. I just have those days where I look in the mirror and feel insecure about what I see, but I remind myself very quickly that I am original and beautiful, and I have people that love me and that’s all that matters!
I can’t stress how much it matters for everyone to accept themselves the way they are. The media is a terrible, poisonous thing that warps our way of thinking. Women and men all over the world have to sit there and watch what is deemed as “perfect” or “normal” on TV and in movies. There are bullies all over the world, people that maybe have that TV image but are missing something else inside themselves, that make fun of others that don’t have what they have. There are magazines that show you how you should look, and that make money over buying a picture snapped by a paparazzi of a celebrity’s cellulite (or what I’d like to call, human-ness) and then making fun of it. It’s things like that that make us feel wrong!
But you don’t have to feel that way because YOU ARE NOT WRONG. No one is wrong! We are all beautiful, inside and out. It took me years to finally accept myself and to just be happy. Life is short, so why waste it worrying about what size pants you wear or the measurement of your waistline? Treat yourself, love yourself, love others around you, and everything will fall into place.
“Be good to yourself by being yourself. You were fearfully and wonderfully made just the way you are! So relax - and give up the comparison game once and for all!”

There is no such thing as perfection. I have lived with insecurities about my body type for the last few years and it’s hard to look in the mirror every day and not like what you see. I thought that one day, I would just become beautiful. That day has come, and I haven’t changed physically - but I’ve realized that anyone and everyone is beautiful in their own unique way. I’ve been beautiful this whole time, and I never noticed. I accepted my body - with the things I like about it, its flaws, and now I’ve learned to love my body the way it is and I would never change it.
Good for this girl! :-) I hope one day that EVERY PERSON can do just what she and I have done-- Love ourselves. <3

This girl reminds me of my self in many ways! We are the same height and a very similar weight and first found love in our body through our butts! I was so insecure about my body but then one day I started looking at my butt... and touching it... and I realized, "I have a nice, juicy ass! Why am I wasting my time hating my body when I have this lovely bottom?!"
She really does have a nice ass though! Look at that thing!
Hi, my name is Lizzy, and I’m 22 years old. I’m 5’6” and I weigh 195lbs. For as long as I can remember I’ve been overly self-conscious of my appearance but this year I decided to love and accept my body. It isn’t easy, but in the process I have discovered what an amazing ass I have. I highly suggest everyone dance around in their underwear to their favorite song while cleaning their room. That is after all how I began to love myself.
I also suggest to stop wasting your time comparing yourself or trying to be someone your not. This has been my greatest obstacle, and I’ve learned you never get very far. Embrace yourself and learn what real beauty is.
With an open heart and open mind,
Lizzy
