THICK, FIT AND FABULOUS


Children who grow up thick grow up with the stigma that they are not beautiful enough or the is something wrong with their bodies. Studies reveals that they grow up with low self-esteem and struggle to express themselves with things they love. They are constantly being teased at school, some even at their homes.

It has been happening for decades now because when you are thick you are not being told that you are beautiful even though you don't need people's opinion to feel appreciated but imagine when you are still young. When you are a child you are vulnerable and naive. If we can take a look even in social media that is the mind set they portray about thick ladies, and we should remember that social media has a lot of influence in people's mind.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    
   
When you are fat it does not necesarrily mean that you are unhealthy. What we need to also understand is that being fat there are lot of chances of you to getting  diseases, you can get diseases like  high blood pressure, heart disease, sugar
diabetes but that does not mean they have to feel unwanted. We should remember that African women have curves and we should let them flaunt them.

Just because you are skinny it does not you are healthy. You can be fat and healthy depending on what you eat and if you are exercising as we all know that study said we all should exercise regularly.

People should stop calling thick people with names and take their time to know them so that they can see their beauty. I am glad that things are now changing, great platforms have been opened and they are now nice names that they are called with like thick or plus size women not fat. Beauty pageant for plus size woman are opened and  media is talking about thick women. This is their chance to show their beauty to the world and take part in such events.
