Operation Awesome

In my new commitment to my blog, I decided I should brush up on some of the blogs I like to follow (but have ignored the last 3 months!! Sorry guys), and see what is new out in the blog world. After blog hopping through a few of my favorites I came across Operation Beautiful, and I nearly danced with joy!

Here is the concept:

"The mission of Operation Beautiful is to post anonymous notes in public places for other women to find. The point is that WE ARE ALL BEAUTIFUL. You are enough... just the way you are!"

Caitlin (the Operation Beautiful editor and concept creator) states: "One of my biggest personal crusades is ending Fat Talk. If my little blog only does one productive thing, I hope it helps readers realize how truly toxic fat talk is — it hurts you emotionally, spiritually, and physically. I want to reach as many people as possible with my End the Fat Talk message."

How it works:

All you need is a piece of paper, a pencil, and a positive comment to leave. Jot down an uplifting saying, "You are beautiful" , "You look amazing just the way you are" whatever you think of. Then, leave your post-it on a mirror or object in public places where women will read them - office, gym, restroom, school, etc. A random act of kindness that will definitely make someone's day. Don't forget to include www.operationbeautiful.com on the note so others can join in on the mission!

For example:
