The people in this category are particularly well-known for their activism around body liberation, and also happen to post lots of selfies.

More Fab Activists

The people in this group tend to be followed by thousands of people, and are either models or bloggers. They post tons of selfies but they tend to be more on the polished side (lots of make-up, etc). Check out the “Other Awesome People” category for people who post less polished selfies. (Tons of these people are body liberation activists and advocates too.)

More Fab Fatshionistas

Don’t ask me what rules I used to put people in this category. “Fashion” got too big, so I separated out some of the people with particularly unique style! 🙂

More Fab Alternative Fatshionistas

This category is a bit of a mish-mish! Just people on the more famous side who tend to take lots of fab selfies. A little bit of everything!

I worried a little about separating out fat men and masculine people, but I thought people might like to have easy access to them.

This section features people who probably don’t identify as fatshion bloggers but post tons of awesome selfies. I appreciate people who aren’t “uber fatshionistas” and models.

More Fab People

I’ve only included stores that primary include photographs in their feed, and that don’t have mixed straight-size/plus-sized offerings. (I’m less trying to promote these businesses than trying to help you concentrate the number of fat folks in your feed!) 🙂

These accounts aggregate photos on a certain theme, or via user submissions. If you only want to follow a handful of people, these are great options for automatic diversity.

These are the hashtags I’ve found most reliable for NOT having triggering content in them. There are lots like #bodypositive that don’t always have good stuff in them. These ones are mostly quite good! I’m always happy to hear of others — contact me!
