One of my sister's friends did this project/performance. I think it would have taken a lot of courage. This comes at a time for me when after weaning my daughter I've started adding back on some pounds and haven't been feeling so great about my body image (not to mention the tolls of two pregnancies). Her project has helped remind me that I shouldn't be focusing on my belly pouch or saggy boobs so much as concentrating on being healthy.

I have seen some negative comments regarding this that we should not be promoting an "unhealthy" body image. I have to disagree though because although I haven't really ever struggled with my weight my sister certainly has. She definitely has a healthier diet than me. While she's eating garden grown fruits and vegetables for dinner and pushing away sugar I settle in for my bowl of ice cream before going to bed. I think different people just have different body types and we should be more accepting.
