Fat Girl Walking: Sex, Food, Love, and Being Comfortable in Your Skin…Every Inch of It

Fat Girls Aren’t Freaks of Nature. They’re Just Like You. Maybe They Are You.

With Fat Girl Walking, Brittany Gibbons wants to start a conversation. Or continue a conversation, one she inadvertently started a while ago when she took her clothes off on a stage in front of 700 people. A lot of people thought she was awesome for doing that. Now, she’s made it her personal mission on her blog, in social media, on television, and now in this amazing book, to destroy the ridiculous myth that every woman who is overweight hates her body and herself. Brittany Gibbons, and the Curvy Girls she speaks to every day on the Internet, beg to differ. They love their bodies. They love fashion. They are in loving relationships, having lots of sex. They aren’t just a fetish, they are normal women. Sure, sometimes they doubt themselves, they’re not robots, but not anymore than EVERY OTHER WOMAN ON THE PLANET.

Fat Girl Walking is a collection of stories from Brittany’s life, her thoughts about the issues that she has faced as a woman, wife, mom, daughter, daughter-in-law, and Internet personality in regards to her weight. She has tried to be as honest as she possibly could—but hopefully any discomfort you feel will quickly be replaced by laughter. She also asks some tough questions, things like “What if my husband weighs less than I do?” and “Is my body hate ruining my daughter’s life?”

Read Fat Girl Walking—start having those conversations, and maybe save all of womankind.
