Positive body image and self esteem related to social media is in the current news! Check out the conversation in this month's issue of Glamour magazine!

“It’s much easier for us to be kind to other women than ourselves,” says Pence. “We have a habit of lifting up other women—‘You look so amazing!’—while tearing ourselves down when they compliment us—‘Oh, stop! I feel gross.’ And that negative talk makes everyone’s body image less stable.”

They are talking about fat talk! And look at this:

“I find social media can be really motivating, once you learn to weed out the braggy stuff that makes you feel bad.”

I like how they recognize the good things and the bad things about social media. I love it but just like everyone else I have to remind myself sometimes not to judge myself against the perfect pictures with hair blowing in the breeze and people's bodies looking perfect all the time.
