Please Participate
I would like to invite you to join in A Fitting Experience, a community project that explores how women view their bodies. The next time you buy clothes, save one paper tag that states the size of the garment you are purchasing. While looking at the tag, please reflect on one of the following questions: How do you feel about your body? What did you think to yourself about your body when you tried this garment on? Describe your body size and shape. Please record your response to the question on the tag, in any form that you choose; feel free to write, draw or alter the tag in any way. Please send your tag with your response to: A Fitting Experience, 134 Aspen Rd., Kings Park, NY 11754

I'm a first time visitor to your site, but I find it fascinating. I love what you've done! I've gone through periods where I worry about body image, but after having children and learning how amazing the body can be, I've learned to do the best to respect it in any shape or form. I was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in September and it only increased my awareness of how much is out there beyond our cultural obsession about weight and age. I'm just glad I have an opportunity to turn 30, 40 and 50 some day. And I don't really care if I weigh 120 or 160 as long as I'm healthy, happy and cancer-free!
