Why Tess Holliday Inspires Me
For those who have been living under a rock and don't know who Tess Holliday is, let me fill you in. Tess Holliday is a plus size model who as rose to fame.
Tess doesn't let critics bring her down nor does she let her size stop her from wearing amazing, fashionable clothes. Having been plus size pretty much my whole life its great to finally have a role model. And its even better that little girls growing up now will have that role model. With her '#effyourbeautystandards' movement she helps bring other plus size men and women up. She also recently released a line of plus size clothing with Pennington's.
The Pennington's line is fashionable and cute. Having worn clothes that I never really liked but got because that was fit me this line is something I also wanted. I can't wait to order some pieces. When a hater photoshopped a picture of her face on to the body of Ursula thinking about McDonald's, Tess simply said that In-n-Out is better and that Ursula rocks.
Tess' rise to fame has helped to boost my confidence. This year I'm actually looking at bikinis. (I didn't know until the past year or so that they even made plus size bikinis.) I never thought I'd ever wear a bikini. Her attitude towards haters has also helped me.
Tess if you never read this I want to thank you. You are what I lacked growing up. Thank you for inspiring me and giving me confidence. Keep doing what you're doing. #effyourbeautystandards

To My Birth Mother
When I was little I only ever knew your name and that you had given birth to me. I also knew that if I wanted to I could reach out to you when I was 18. It wasn't until high school that I found the letter you had sent me when I was baby. I don't know if the letter necessarily helped me. It did tell me the story about you and my birth father though. I liked knowing the story. The day I found the letter I also found a card from who I assume was your step-mother. I could be wrong. The card came with pictures of one of my younger half sisters. It also listed all of my half-sisters' names. I think that card is why I don't know if the letter helped. I didn't realize it right away but that card made me wonder. Why did you give me up for adoption? Why did you keep my sisters? I mean the oldest one that you kept was only two years younger than me.
Mentally, I knew the answers to those questions. I'm a smart girl. But, emotionally, I couldn't understand it. It hurt me a lot. Not that I would have admitted that until recently. I think being adopted messed with my mind. I'm not blaming you for this. I understand why you gave me up for adoption and I know it must have been hard for you. But again just because I understand it mentally doesn't mean my emotions understand it. It made me feel unwanted although I know that wasn't true. What I found out after finding the letter was that you fought for me. You had changed your mind. I know there's a reason the judge decided to let my adoptive parents keep me but just knowing you fought for me made me feel a lot better. For a while it was confusing about why I was allowed to have my birth father's family in my life and not you or your family. I later understood it though.
When I turned 18 I was suddenly scared to meet you. For years I wanted nothing more than to meet you. I don't know what changed for me even now almost a year and a half later. I had found you on Facebook in like ninth or tenth grade, so all I had to do was send you a friend request and a message. I finally sent that friend request in March of 2015. You took a month but you finally accepted it. I then spent the next four months trying to figure out what I wanted to say to you. I finally sent you a message in August though. To my knowledge you still haven't read that message. I sent you message in October for your birthday and you read it but never replied.
I don't want you to think I'm reaching out to you for a mother figure. I have a mother. I love her very much and she's amazing. She works really hard to provide for me and my family. I reached out to you simply to say that I had tried. I didn't want something to happen to you and I had never even tried to talk to you. Now that I have I'm okay. I'm okay if you never send me a message or talk to me. Yes it would nice to meet you and my half-siblings. Yes, I know they aren't my actual siblings but they are by blood so I still count them. But meeting them and you isn't something I need to be okay anymore.
In your letter to me you said that you hoped I didn't hate you. I've never hated you. Not since day one. I've always loved you even though I didn't know you. I just want you to know that. I also want to thank you for the advice you gave me. It's easier said than done to not be who someone else wants me to be but as I get older it's slowly starting to get a little easier.
Your daughter that you put up for adoption,

My New Year's Resolution More Detailed
So in my post last Friday I told you guys my New Year's resolution was to lose weight. I wanted to go into more details for you. I went to the doctor for my physical yesterday. So I want to try and lose two pounds a week which is 102 pounds this year. It seems a lot when you lump it together but it really isn't. Hopefully by the end of the year I'll weigh about 306 pounds. I am very overweight and I'm finally ready to make a change.
I've also added a resolution. I want to try and drink more water, I don't drink enough water on a daily basis and I want to fix that.
What are your resolutions?

Movie Monday: Daddy's Home Review
Hey guys! So I wanted to try something called Movie Monday. It's not going to be every Monday but whenever I see a movie and want to review it or want to talk about movies those posts will go up on a Monday. Today's Movie Monday is a review and I'll be reviewing Daddy's Home. Now I don't know anything about movies. My reviews will be a synopsis of the movie, what I liked/ didn't like, and would I recommend it. So let's get into this.
Daddy's home is a comedy starring Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg, Ferrell plays the stepfather who is finally winning his stepkids over when Wahlberg comes back into town. The two then proceed to have a "Dad-off" trying to make the other look bad in front of the kids. Most of this makes Ferrell look bad. Of course in the end there is a happy ending that also sets up a possible sequel.
I saw the movie the Monday after Christmas with my family. It was a very good movie. I'll be honest, I walked into the movie half expecting it not to be as funny as it was.I don't why but I never have very high hopes for comedies. But this movie was hilarious.and it doesn't hurt that gorgeous Mark Wahlberg is in it. I would definitely recommend this movie.
Have you seen Daddy's Home? If so what did you think? Would you recommend it?

Blogmas Fail!
Hey guys! So blogmas was a fail this year I'm sorry to say. I should not have taken on something like this so soon after starting a new job. I also did not realize that my job would be so physically exhausting. This is my own fault and I'm so sorry for starting this. I want you all to know that I had every intent of following through with this.
