Grounding the Fat Galaxy: Our Fat n' Proud Mission Statement

This blog is to document our journey down the path of body acceptance, no matter how our bodies may change. We hope to share that journey to help other people who may be struggling and to get advice from people who have been there. We hope to make this experience interactive, so please comment or send us things! We will always have awesome links at the side of our page. Please check those out!

Taggin Hash Tuesday: Solutions

Today's Taggin Hash Tuesday will continue our New Year Theme, with the renaming of resolutions and positive hashtags you can use to empower yourself all year!
This year the BB and the WW are making New Year's Solutions instead of resolutions.  Resolutions usually fizzle out and become a source of guilt. Solutions are much more flexible. If your goals change, your life changes, your priorities are different, or you have an epiphany, you can always change the solution to match the problem, making goals more attainable than the on-the-pedestal-resolutions we typically fall back on.  For example: Instead of making a resolution to lose 40 pounds, think of a practical solution that can lead to self improvement and growth, such as "I want to feel beautiful, and I will do this by...." This is a flexible goal that can change with your new experiences and grow with you!

The BB and the WW were hoping to receive some reader input on positive hashtags for the coming year, but since we had no results, we will instead offer some for your personal use.

#PositiveSolutions Hashtags!

#SpeakItBeIt : inspired by the WW and how she told herself she was beautiful until she believed it.

#ChangeForYou : as in don't change for anyone else.  Change only because YOU want to change. 

#BadDayTurnAround : as in bad day, set back, but this is how I’m gonna make it better.

#NoOneCanTellYouWhoYouAre : if you want to be a badass bitch one day, no one can tell you that's not who you are.  Do what you want to do, be a badass, and then carry on being the calm, happy person you are every other day. Just because certain behavior is not consistent with your usual personality does not mean it is out of bounds. 

#MyBodyMyLife : This is YOUR body and YOUR life.  Don’t let anyone else run things.
#SassySexyBold : For those days you feel awesome!

#GoYourOwnWay : Besides being a Fleetwood Mac song, it is a powerful message of making your own path in life.

#MakeYourOwnMirror : We’re all expected to look in the mirror and see our imperfections and hope for a better body, but this tag is for those days when you feel empowered to recreate that mirror.

Feel free to test these out and share them with us!  We’d love to see your ideas.

Tomorrow, we’ll be getting all personal with our post.  See what our plans are for the new year. 


HAPPY NEW YEAR’S EVE!  Be safe, be you!
