Hi there! My name is Kris, and I am a 38 year old grandmother who is not only confident in her curves, but extremely proud to be a plus sized women. These photos were just taken a month ago, and in my opinion reflect my secure attitude and youthful looks.
I haven't always been so confident in my body and spent MANY years hating myself and the skin I was in. Having always been bigger than most, I struggled with my self image and was a victim of society's damaging pressure to be thin. My lack of self confidence was dangerous, as it lead to a promiscuous lifestyle and extreme mental anguish.
I yearned for attention, love and the affections of men. What I found was that being in such a vulnerable state of mind, I made myself available for the wrong guys and ultimately invited being used and mistreated. I wore baggy clothes, and wouldn't be caught dead in a dress or anything sexy.
One day, I would finally open my eyes, take a long hard look in the mirror and realize that I am a beautiful HEALTHY young lady. I don't really know why or what prompted the change, but I can say that I was simply exhausted from hating myself. I knew the ONLY way to change was to accept who I am and love myself the way I am.
I spent many years rebuilding my self esteem and developing confidence that would change my life forever. I realized that I was worse off with such a self loathing mental state of mind, than being over weight. It occurred to me that your mental state of mind can be far more of a danger to you than your being out of shape and over weight.
I am a much happier person these days, and totally sport my confidence like my brightest accessory! I invite you to my life, crazy and free and comfortable being me!
