I'm Good Enough For Me

I’m Good Enough for Me! recounts one woman’s personal journey to self-acceptance. After years of struggling with her own body-image demons, McCarley recognized the flaws were not hers. Instead, she realized society’s unrealistic standards of the “ideal” womanly shape and size were unhealthy and unattainable for the average female.

Rather than surrender in shame by failing one crazy fad diet after another, McCarley turned the tables and launched a revolutionary new way of thinking about herself. I’m Good Enough for Me! is an inspirational invitation to accept and embrace yourself, regardless of your age, shape, or size, for being uniquely, wonderfully you. Changing your perspective of yourself, your self-worth, and your place in this world is the key to learning how to be good enough for yourself and even better for those you love.

I highly recommend this wonderful and inspiring lil book!

First Plus-Size Winner in the History of America's Next Top Model

It's official!! WHITNEY Thompson last night became the first plus-size winner in the history of "America's Next Top Model."

And boy, is she proud of that distinction.

"People always say you have to be stick-skinny, emaciated and unhealthy and I've kind of stood up for [being full-figured] my whole life," Thompson told The Post in her first post-victory interview.

"I'm not going to lose 50 pounds - if someone asks me to do that, I'll go to another [modeling] agency," she says. "I've already heard online from boys and girls all over the world who are dealing with eating disorders.

"They're thanking me for standing up and saying, 'I am a plus-size model and I am beautiful.'

"This is what people should look like," she says, referring to herself, "rather than skin-and-bones, which is disgusting and sends a bad message to people everywhere."

It's that outspokenness, along with her obvious self-confidence, that helped Thompson win over Anya Kop in last night's "Top Model" finale.

It's Not Over Until the Plus-Size Lady Sings

Stacey-Lee Cuddy - a plus-sized singer is hoping to take the pop charts by storm and prove that bigger can be better when her new single is released.

Stacey-Lee was picked from more than 500 hopefuls to become part of new girl band "Plus" – created to challenge the music industry's preference for waif-like performers.

While chart-topping singers have praised the virtues of big girls, and the average size of British women is 16, performers over size 12 struggle to make it into the big time.

Stacey-Lee, 23, has first hand experience of the difficulties they face having lost out on the opportunity to join a girl band at just 15 years old because she was 'chubby'.
