I came across this great gallery by CollegeCandy.com of before/after photo comparisons of celebrities (view it here) and I just wanted to share it. I have been working on my self-esteem a lot lately, focusing more on being happy with myself versus trying to fit into what society says I should look like. Our culture is slowly but surely coming around to the same perspective and calling out all the photoshopping that goes into the media images projected upon us all.
If you like this type of thing, check out a couple of my favorite songs that support this movement. They may or may not be your style, but they are all supporting being yourself and being happy with what that means.
