"There are times where I have certain insecurities about my body. Growing up, I have always been athletic and had big thighs. It took me a while to grow into myself and appreciate my body type. We (women) have to learn to be confident and comfortable with our bodies because there will always be someone telling us we need to change. For example, I grew up around the African American side of my family and when I visit, they tell me I'm too thin. But when I go to Los Angeles , I'm told that I could drop a few pounds."

– R&B star Tamia talks about body image in an interview for LoveMyBody.org's 'Real Me' campaign.
