"Getting in a swimming costume was the hardest thing for me to do".

Zoe was diagnosed with Lipoedema after years of being told to lose weight by her GP. Since accepting her condition, Zoe has decided to educate the world about Lipoedema and help give people the confidence to go swimming and enjoy plus-size fashion.

"The Lipodema community is growing" - she said it

It’s so disgusting that people automatically judge based on looks, there’s so much weight stigma these days it’s pathetic, people won’t even give others a chance because of simply their body appearance because they make unfair assumptions. I can’t wait till we evolve past this

Embracing this is a terrible idea, it's an illness that will destroy your life.being self conscious is a good thing it drives you to do something about your problem.not being harsh just being a realist

This is sooo good. It took me to hit age 50 to accept my body. Kudos to her for reaching that acceptance at a young age.

[rebeccagibbs]

fuck yeah. You only have one body, it's where you live and love, so use it how you please regardless of how people think you should feel about it. The stares are the worst, the questions can be uncomfortable, but being yourself 24/7 is extremely freeing.

Why does society make conventional beauty standards/body expectations so fucking important that people have to literally struggle to accept their bodies? Our species is horrible

[gildafontoura]

Empower women, what about men with big legs? Why not empower both genders with big legs? These woke cringe

[SirReptitious]

She must be in medical journals as the person with the worst case of Lipoedema in history. Because it's a condition that affects the legs, but in her it affects 100% of her body, head to toe...

When you get to the niche section of onlyfans.
