Operation Beautiful

About Operation Beautiful…

Caitlin, is the editor of Operation Beautiful. The mission of Operation Beautiful is to post anonymous notes in public places for other women to find. The point is that WE ARE ALL BEAUTIFUL. You are enough... just the way you are!

The goal of the Operation Beautiful website is to end negative self-talk or “Fat Talk.” If this little blog only does one productive thing, I hope it helps readers realize how truly toxic negative self-talk is — it hurts you emotionally, spiritually, and physically.

In Caitlin's words she explains - "Through my own experiences fighting Fat Talk, I’ve realized the power behind an anonymous act such as Operation Beautiful. When I post a note, I’m saying, “I CHOOSE to be positive!”

She began Operation Beautiful by leaving positive messages on the mirrors of public restrooms — at work, at the gym, at the grocery store. She explains “I scribble down whatever comes to mind — "You are beautiful!" or "You are amazing just the way you are!" My personal goal is to leave as many Operation Beautiful notes as I can. Maybe some people read them and just smile, but I bet some people are truly touched by the effort of a random stranger.

Operation Beautiful is simple: all you need is a pen and a piece of paper or sticky post-It's. If you want to join the mission, send her an e-mail at seebriderun@gmail.com with a photograph of your Operation Beautiful note or a description of your experience, and She’ll post it on the Operation Beautiful site for thousands of others to read and enjoy!

So Let's Start leaving positive messages on the mirrors of public restrooms — at work, at the gym, at the grocery store. in the gym locker room, or even on a random car’s windshield, stores, etc. If you want, you can write the web address http://www.OperationBeautiful.com on the bottom so other women can find the site!
