Jennifer Jonassen shares the importance that self-acceptance has made in her life. Loving yourself is the healthiest, best decision you can make for yourself.

If this works for you I’d love to share it on your site! Absolutely love your video. And as always you rock. Atchka, Ive always wanted to tell you that the work you do makes me feel safer somehow. Thank you for standing up to all the bullies out there! You’re definitely a hero!

I’d like to announce a new project to help Strong4Life understand what fat kids face.

Now, this video is rife with profanity, so it’s not for children. What it is is a call for others to post their videos on their experiences with fat bullying.

There is also one other issue that I tried to resolve, but could not see a way around it. I mention that this week is No Name Calling Week, which is true. It was only after sharing the video with Wendy Brown (whose comment is in the video) that she pointed out that I call a few of the Strong4Life people names… oh, and the video is called “Hey Strong4Life, Don’t Be a Dickweed.”

I considered editing to be consistent, but after several failed attempts I have resigned myself to accusations of hypocrisy with the intention of responding to those accusations by paraphrasing Strong4Life: I’m just trying to get their attention.
