Not everyone wishes to be skinny

Since the biginning of life I have been skinny and never been able to gain weight. People tell me I'm so lucky but I disagree. I wish I had some weight and was muscular too, due to my skinny figure I have a hard social life. This is for all the body shamers, for people who think being out of shape is bad. By this picture I show my support for over weight and curvy people as well as extremely skinny or scrawny people. My mom always wanted me to be featured publicly with a good cause and I think telling people to love themselves for who they are is no less of a good cause. I originally took this picture for the cover of my school magazine but never turned it in. Thank you :)
