This was flawless.

You are not your bra size, nor are you the width of your waist, nor are you the slenderness of your calves. You are not your hair color, your skin color, nor are you a shade of lipstick. Your shoe size is of no consequence. You are not defined by the amount of attention you get from males, females, or any combination thereof. You are not the number of sit-ups you can do, nor are you the number of calories in a day. You are not your mustache. You are not the hair on your legs. You are not a little red dress. You are no amalgam of these things. You are the content of your character. You are the ambitions that drive you. You are the goals that you set. You are the things that you laugh at and the words that you say. You are the thoughts you think and the things you wonder. You are beautiful and desirable not for the clique you attend, but for the spark of life within you that compels you to make your life a full and meaningful one. You are beautiful not for the shape of the vessel, but for the volume of the soul it carries.

Whoever you are, right now, in this moment, you always have the power and the potential to become the greatest version of yourself. So don’t ever feel stuck in anything.
Andy Warhol once said “Weight isn’t important the way the magazines make you think it is. I know a girl who just looks at her face in the medicine cabinet mirror & never looks below her shoulders, & she’s four or five hundred pounds but she doesn’t see all that, she just sees a beautiful face & therefore she thinks she’s a beauty. & therefore I think she’s a beauty, too, because I usually accept people on the basis of their self-images, because their self-images have more to do with the way they think than their objective-images do. Maybe she’s six hundred pounds, who knows. If she doesn’t care, I don’t.”

I like being the fat girl in my group of friends.
It means they can’t borrow my super-cute clothes and never return them (and vice versa, I’m really bad about returning things.)
It means I’m better at shopping because I have to look harder.
It means I’m patient, because I have to be.
It means I have more time to worry about important things when I’m not worrying about what I eat.
It means I can finish their leftovers without caring about who’s watching.
It means I can withstand being judged.
It means I’m beautiful, because everything about me means I’m beautiful.
I love these PSAs; I think they’re really clever and get the message across very well.
