Fat Bottomed Girls (And Boys)
I spent my whole life until this point trying to make my body into a shape it wasn’t meant to be and felt disappointment every time I failed. Â I will never be lithe, gazelle-like or confused with Heidi Klum. And that’s okay. Heidi Klum only wishes she could be confused with me! Â *snap* …
