{proud of my size: week 4}

Have I mentioned how much I love this weekly post about being proud about my size and loving myself for who I am and how I look? Well I do! These weekly posts are really helping me to love me which in turn helps my mood and depression.

These images were taken a few days before we had to leave on our trip to Washington. Some were taken with my cell phone before we headed off to a BBQ and a few were taken after the BBQ.

I am loving how I feel in a "maxi" dress. I always feel beautiful in them. When I was getting ready for the BBQ I didn't realize how long my hair was until I had to straiten it. Gosh it's gotten so long and it's past the point of driving me nuts when down, so that's a good thing.

It's amazing what a belt can do for an outfit. I was seriously thinking of not wearing one with this dress but it sure makes it a more finished outfit with it on - on the plus size it also gives a nice line at the waist making me appear a size or two smaller!!
