Model Fluvia Lacerda by Madeline Figueroa Jones for Lucas Pictures with makeup by Tara Taylor.
Never in my life would I think I would have the confidence to post such a picture, but the beautiful ladies on here have inspired me! This is the first time in my life that I can say my body is beautiful and when I look in the mirror I embrace my jiggly booty and thighs :) I weigh around 170lbs and depending on how my hips want to act that day I am a 11-12 pants size. Every shape and size is beautiful and you should embrace the one body you have for life!
I’m 25, 5’9”, 190 lbs in this picture, 39-30-45.
My weight has bothered me, as a number. I know that on a BMI chart I am overweight, but I feel womanly and muscular and healthy. I think that our health should be separated from our self-esteem. I am a woman, but I am also a law student, and if I worried about my weight all the time I would not be able to succeed in school. I don’t diet, and I don’t kill myself at the gym. I eat pretty healthy and I stay active, whether it’s hitting the gym, salsa dancing, or doing some yoga. My boyfriend thinks I am the most beautiful woman in the world, and I think that every person deserves that type of appreciation and love in their lives, whether it is from a relationship or from their own love of self.
I’m Philly, 19 and I live in England. This is my second submission to Curve Appeal after having such a positive response to my first submission.
I’m not “skinny bashing” or whatever the term is, but I’ve decided I don’t need to be a size 4 or 6 to be beautiful or feel sexy. I’m 5ft5, UK 10/12 with a DD cup size.This photo filled me with so much confidence and if I’m being honest, I felt amazing at that moment in time.
Be true to who you are, don’t take negatives from anyone and be grateful your body. Regardless of size, weight, age, height or whatever, just love yourself because you’ll only ever have one chance.

“Something magical has happened to me: like a dream when one feels frightened and creepy, and suddenly wakes up to the knowledge that no such terrors exist. I have wakened up.”
I decided I’m okay with having curves in a size zero world.

Fertility Goddess (Yakshi)
At the Museum of Fine Art, Boston.Northern India, second-third quarter of the 1st century A.D.
Yakshis and their male counterparts, yakshas, are semi-divine nature spirits believed to bring good luck, wealth, and other blessings such as the birth of children. They were worshipped in India prior to the development of Buddhism and were placed on early Buddhist monuments to attract good furtune—and converts—to the new religion. The yakshi’s ripe body and unabashed femininity emphasize her role as a source of fertility.
This figure once formed part of a bracket on one of the four large gateways of the monumental railing surrounding the Great Stupa at Sanchi. Originally she reached one arm upward to grasp the branch of a fruit-bearing tree
