This is about my boobs

April 16, 2020April 16, 2020 ~ Suzanne ~ 2 Comments

*Dad, you might want to skip this one. This morning I stood in front of my mirror, nearly naked, just looking at my body. If the thought of standing naked in front of your full length mirror makes you uncomfortable (like it used to do to me), you should do it. This has been an … Continue reading This is about my boobs

Being fat, Fab 5, and living in tension

August 18, 2019August 18, 2019 ~ Suzanne ~ Leave a comment

I have always had what I call a healthy self esteem. Despite being overweight since puberty (but was I though? like, my memory tells me I was chunky in high school but when I look back at pictures I don't see it), I've never felt, or at least never felt that I felt, less than … Continue reading Being fat, Fab 5, and living in tension

Something to Celebrate

July 14, 2018July 14, 2018 ~ Suzanne ~ Leave a comment

I have always wanted to fall in love. As a teenager and college student I prayed that I would only fall in love once and that my one love story would be with my husband, the man I would spend the rest of my life with. Now, it’s a given and I don’t need to … Continue reading Something to Celebrate

The Real Me

December 2, 2017December 2, 2017 ~ Suzanne ~ 1 Comment

For the past five or so years I have been loosely and casually studying fear in the Bible. The idea of being fearless has become a sort of goal of mine. I have also, I suppose all of my life, been an advocate for body positivity. Somehow I have made it to twenty eight years … Continue reading The Real Me

Here’s the thing about May

June 2, 2015 ~ Suzanne ~ Leave a comment

On the first day of May I walked down the stairs of my apartment building to be greeted by my principal. I was ten minutes late for school and she was holding a puppy. "It's a puppy!" she said. "Put him in your apartment!" Or something like that. So, naturally, I put him in my … Continue reading Here’s the thing about May

Here’s the thing about Women’s Health Month

May 20, 2015May 20, 2015 ~ Suzanne ~ Leave a comment

Apparently May is Women's Health Month! Today, on the 19th of May, I finish 30 Days of Yoga with Adriene*. Lately at the end of each practice Adriene asks us yogis to remember why we started this challenge in the first place. And so I remind myself. I remind myself that I started a yoga … Continue reading Here’s the thing about Women’s Health Month

Here’s the thing about the women I needed to see part 2: body-love

March 25, 2015May 10, 2015 ~ Suzanne ~ 2 Comments

Last month I wrote a little something about the women I needed to see. It was such a pleasure highlighting the awesome women doing awesome things in my life that I'd like to make it a habit. Sometimes I look around me at the beach or at bible study or on the bus or at … Continue reading Here’s the thing about the women I needed to see part 2: body-love

Here’s the thing about my 200

October 23, 2014October 23, 2014 ~ Suzanne ~ 7 Comments

A cool girl named Brittany wrote about a month ago about being more than 200 pounds. Her post was called "This is 200." and since reading it I've been wanting to write my own, my own 200. Because I weigh more than 200 pounds, too, which doesn't surprise you if you've ever seen me in … Continue reading Here’s the thing about my 200

Here’s the thing about modesty

November 23, 2013April 10, 2014 ~ Suzanne ~ Leave a comment

Reposted (and slightly shortened) from my old blog because this article is making it's way around Facebook. I recently read a blog post about modesty and bathing suits. Now I love modesty (and my one piece bathing suit… and blogs) so I was pumped. Plus the blog post came up on Dannah Gresh’s Facebook page and … Continue reading Here’s the thing about modesty

Who’s that girl? It’s Elizabeth!

November 4, 2013February 18, 2014 ~ Suzanne ~ 7 Comments

This summer while working for YouthWorks I watched the first season of New Girl on Netflix in a week. In a week! If you've never worked for YouthWorks that probably doesn't seem impressive, but the YouthWorks schedule keep you working from 6:45am (breakfast prep!) to 10:45pm (lights out!). Somehow I managed it, though, because New … Continue reading Who’s that girl? It’s Elizabeth!
