Hi, I'm Ashleigh from Michigan. Fat talk was an around me and my friends. My friends
did it, moms did it, and nobody really stopped to think how all the negativity affected people. I
always compared myself to the models in magazines and the celebrities on television—I would
pick out all the things that made me different from them and feel as though I wasn't pretty I think
the media definitely had a lot to do with my own negative thoughts about body image. There
were no plus-size models in the magazine ads and it was still considered a bad thing to be
anything but a sample size.
Although I think media still has a long way to go in changing the social norms
surrounding body image, it is good to know that small changes are happening. In the end, it's
about feling healthy ard good about yourself, no matter what size you are.
