ecstatic Fourth! This is the swimsuit I'll be wearing to the beach this holiday weekend. I know we are inching – slowly! – toward the belief that you don't have to be a size zero,or a teenager, to look good/be allowed on the beach. I also know that, and even in the era of the plus-size bikini and the stretch-mark mom,too many of us would rather be skinned alive than put on a swimsuit….and that too many of us are lost out on all the fun of summer: of swimming and sunning, kayaking and paddleboarding, or digging for clams and collecting shells,walking our dogs on the sand and holding our children in the water.

"We all need to be the change we want to see in the world," she added.
Weiner then went live on Facebook to issue her challenge - share pictures of yourself in your swimsuit playing with your kids or just being ecstatic. "I want this to be a smorgasbord of positivity!" she told her followers. And that's when moms started sharing their inspiring stories - and their photos.
"For my soon to be born daughter. As a person who was teased for her size and weight as a child I want to teach my daughter that beauty comes in all shapes and sizes. What really matters is being active and healthy and the person you are," wrote one woman, and who shared a a pregnant photo of herself in a swimsuit.
