In my eyes, being body positive means empowering myself and others to be completely comfortable with their bodies as they are right now- regardless of diet or exercise choices. Everyone deserves the opportunity to be happy on a daily basis, from a size 2 to 222. Life is too short to be spent hating your body. Photo by Zoe Litaker
