The Dressing Room Project has added some new cards to be printed off and leave in dressing rooms, bathrooms or wherever you think women will see them and feel somewhat empowered.
I printed a sheet off yesterday and then copied them at Kinko’s for only .50 a sheet. Make sure you ask first if you are going to adhere to the wall or the mirror.
This is not about “fat acceptance.” This is about showing women that it is ok NOT to be a size 0. Showing young girls that they don’t have to look like the Olsen twins or Paris Hilton in order to be beautiful. Eating disorders, whether they are purging, control or binging, are not healthy. While we fight constantly to find our place in society, there are those who are purposely shrinking because they feel they have no place.
Here are the 2008 designs.
Print them
Post them
Start a conversation over them.
Leave them in diet books @ the bookstore or the library.
Post them in your gym.
above Love yourself for being YOU.

I thought I’d post a little bit on this before the Madness that overtakes people every year on the day after Thanksgiving and last until about January 6th.
SHOPPING.
But there is something YOU can do. There is an ongoing girl-powered organization that promotes healthy views of ourselves in and out of the dressing rooms.
The Dressing Room Project was started to empower young women to love themselves as they are. Various groups have sprung up around the country that leave behind in dressing rooms, on bulletin boards, etc. small inspirational cards that say things like:
“You are overflowing with Beauty”
“Its ok to be you-Keep it real”
“Worry about the size of your heart-not the size of your body”
It’s these kinds of viral messages that will get the word out. Everyone in their heart of hearts, no matter how callous they may seem on the outside, cannot possibly believe that being fatphobic is healthy. Even the skinniest of people. This is a way to humanize what we as “Fluffettes” already know.
On their website you can find a pdf of 6 cards you can print and leave in various places around your town. Make sure that if you use them as stickers, that you ask before you stick.
This is a great way to promote body positive images and tomorrow is a good day to start!!
