Lauren Conrad sure is making a statement by banning the word ‘skinny’ from her website!!

Skinny, fit, slim, toned…AHHH, which one are we supposed to use?!?!

Lauren Conrad has decided to help us out and banned the use of words such as “skinny” from her website. She posted about this change saying…

“When we’ve talked about getting in shape in the past, words like “skinny,” “slim,” and “thin” have often come up. Starting this month, we’ll be banning any body shaming terms from the site, and replacing them with words like “fit” “toned,” and “healthy.”… Every body is created differently—and healthy bodies come in all shapes and sizes.”

AGREED!!! While this stint is good PR for Lauren, it also sends along a good message!! She made a good point and hopefully more women who follow the fitness content on her website will focus more on being fit rather then “skinny.”
