I love Kate Moss. This woman is constantly stirring the pot - and not in a Jon & Kate way or a Madonna in the 90's way. No, Moss causes a ruckus simply by being herself and I applaud her for it.

What if we could truly love, accept, and appreciate our bodies and how we look, right now? Imagine what life would be like without negative body obsession?

I believe that body hatred lies deep under a host of physical problems. How can we possibly expect to be healthy if we reject our own primary residence?
