Why I Want Whitney Thore As My BFF
LittleThings

For those of us who watch TLC's My Big Fat Fabulous Life, we know exactly who Whitney Thore is. But, for those of you who spend Tuesday nights doing something else, Whitney Thore is a Greensboro, North Carolina native who came to fame because of her sensational Youtube video entitled "A Fat Girl Dancing" in which her and her dance partner, Todd showed the world you can break it down at any size!

Every single time I watch the show, I can't help but think that Whitney and I could be the best of friends, and here are a few reasons why I think Whit could be the best BFF there could ever be.


She wears whatever she wants, whenever she wants, no matter what.

Whitney has been seen unapologetically rocking a sports bra when working out, and dancing. She definitely rocks this look!

Remember the time she stepped out in a two piece bathing suit?

Whitney spoke out on the show about how she hadn't been to the beach in years and hadn't been seen in a two-piece bathing suit for as long as she could remember. It was a huge moment in her life when she and her friend went to the beach and Whitney stepped out in an adorable two-piece bikini.

Who doesn't want a mermaid bathing suit, though? Seriously.

She doesn't let a number on a scale define who she is.

It's a hard battle to fight when you don't feel good about yourself because of your weight. You obsess over how much you weigh, what size jeans you wear, etc. Whitney makes it a point to let the world know that no matter what number shows up on the scale, it will never define who she is as a person.

The "No Body Shame" campaign.

According to the No Body Shame campaign website, the true meaning of "no body shame" is: "The mission of the No Body Shame campaign is to help every individual overcome the debilitating effects of societal-induced shame. Supporters of No Body Shame have named weight, height, skin color, sexual orientation, gender, different abilities, and specific physical attributes as causes of shame."

She's educating the world on PCOS.

It used to really surprise me how many people I would come across, including medical professionals, that didn't know what PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome) was. Whitney has been really candid about how PCOS has impacted her life, included weight gain, infertility, and acne.

If you or anyone you know needs more information about PCOS, please visit http://www.pcosaa.org/pcos-symptoms/ and speak to a medical professional. You're not alone.

Her relationship with her mother.

Whitney's relationship with her mom is seriously mother/daughter goals! We've seen some pretty interesting situations from the dynamic duo, ranging from Bab's shaving Whitney's legs to the two of them going out and adopting a pet pig together.

My thoughts and prayers are with Babs and the Thore family, stay strong!

Her dancing abilities.

Whitney can dance better than I could ever dream of. In the newest episode of "My Big Fat Fab Life" we see her belly dance a local restaurant after being invited to take a belly dancing class.

Could you maybe teach me a thing or two, Whit?

And finally, the number one reason I think Whitney and I would make a great best friend team is...



Cats!

Whitney and I share a love and obsession for cats! She's been very candid about how much she loves her cats (and cats in general, really) and she even went to war with her mom about taking her cat with her when she moved out of her parents house.


In all, I just think Whitney would be a funny, supportive, and entertaining best friend to have! From her confidence to her sense of humor, I think Whitney has all the qualifications to be the best of best friends.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
