SIZE ACCEPTANCE is . . .

---

• To accept the natural diversity in body shape and size.
• To affirm human beauty and worth regardless of weight, physical size, and shape.

Being size accepting can be challenging. Magazine racks spill out headlines to grab your attention.

• "Tone your abs."
• "Look slimmer and trimmer."
• "Sculpt your body."
• "10 quick steps to looking better."
• "Perfect body in 10 days! "

What is the perfect body? Are you more interested in a healthy body or one that looks a certain way? When you look in the mirror, do you like what you see? Or, do you wish you had just a little more muscle here or a little less fat there? Do you think there is an "ideal" body?
