FEBRUARY - We are thirteen (13) years old!!! I really can't believe it's been that long. And we've kept going because of you, our wonderful readers. We have and have had some wonderful writers and editors over the past thirteen years who have made this magazine possible and I thank them from the bottom of my heart. I think it's fitting that our birthday falls in February, the month of Valentine's, because I love you all. Thank you.

IN THIS ISSUE....

	"7 Flu-Fighting Foods" in the Health/Fitness section.		"Working on your New Year Resolutions? Is that a good idea?" in our Health at Every Size section.
	"5 Best Instagram Accounts to Help You Love Your Body More" in our Art/Entertainment section.		"Body Positivity Power" by Megan Jayne Crabbe in our Literature section.
	"Valentine's Day and the Official Facebook Relationship Status" in our Acceptance section.		"Fashion for Valentines" in our Fashion/Beauty section.

Also...

Each month we feature simple exercises you can do at home and without buying fancy expensive equipment. Check out our youtube videos in the Exercise section.
We started a new section called Letters to the Editor where we will share some of the comments we've received from readers.
Another feature is our "Funny Quote of the Day" so be sure to keep coming back to the Funny Bone.
And a whole lot more!!

Please stop by for a while and peruse our pages. Visit our forums and join in the discussions. We have a board For Females Only where you can discuss sensitive and intimate issues and a new FAs Only Board. Only registered forum members who email us for access to these boards will be able to read and join them.

As always, this magazine is for you and by you. We are always looking for input from our readers, both SSBBWs and FAs. If you have suggestions, comments or want to see something specific let us know. And if you have something to say that you want our readers to see, send it in. Whether it's about your favorite store for clothes, a great book, poem or movie you want to review for us, whether you have something to say about acceptance or weightloss or just have a story to tell, please feel free to contact us.

So sit back, grab a coffee and enjoy your stay.
