Love Guerrilla Reading List

Being a Love Guerrilla is a call to action! It started for me as a desire to love my body and my desire and commitment to see a different world around me that was loving of all bodies, shapes and sizes! Along my journey it became important to educate myself on other leaders fighting the good fight. Recognizing that there are historians, scientists, poets and writers championing Size Diversity and HAES is not only inspiring but empowering!

Here is a short reading list that every Love Guerrilla should have in their back pocket!

• Embody: Learning to Love Your Unique Body (and quieting that critical voice!), the new book from The Body Positive, by Connie Sobczak- COMING SOON!

• The Fat Studies Reader, Editors: Esther Rothblum & Sondra Solavay

• The Beauty Myth: How Images of Beauty Are Used Against Women, Naomi Wolf
