Monique Loses 40 Pounds

Hey Ladies,



KK Francis here with my latest blog.



As you know I am promoting one of the best sites in the world for us thick and curvey women. That would be Thick Madame http://www.thickmadame.org/. I wanted to start a blog and get to know all my sisters from all over the world. Black, White, Latino, Russian, it doesn't matter. If you are a woman thick, curvey or not and you have somehting to say, KK Francis wants to hear from you



I must thank all women from all over the world for viewing our site and signing up for the newsletter, which will be out to you in a few weeks. The response has been awesome and we want to hear from YOU!!!



I read this article in MSN.com yesterday about Monique and how she lost 4olbs. Check out the article in full detail http://movies.msn.com/movies/article.aspx?news=412238&gt1=28103.



After I read the article, I read some of the responses that people wrote and I have to say I was amazed to see the level of ignorance that was displayed toward this woman for losing this weight.



We all know Monique's fame is linked to her being thick, curvey and confident. We also love her for her ability to tell people that she is sexy and beautiful with or without their approval. This is what prompted me to start Thick Madame and give it the name it has. Monique inspired me and countless others in the movie 'Phat Girlz'. She has alway promoted confidence and pride in oneself.



I ask you, my Girlz will Monique's awesome achievement of a 40 lb weight loss change the way we as thick and curvey women see her? Or will we celebrate her in becoming the best healthy woman she can be?



What are your thoughts on the article and the responses that followed? Holla back at me info@thickmadame.org with you replies, questions and comments.



Have you lost weight and found that people hated on you for it? Or maybe the opposite, people actually celebrated you for achieving your goal.



What do you think of the way thick and curvey women are treated, in general? Everyone has an opinion and we want to hear yours.



This is KK Francis signing off speaking Love, Peace and Blessings
