Greetings!

Hi. Hello. Hey there! 


This will be my first "official" blog. Right now? I have no clue what direction this thing will go, no idea when I'll find time to post, just generally no idea at all. But it's always nice to introduce yourself, so hello netizens! I'm Shayaunna. Due to my intense love of sriracha, I was nicknamed Shayracha and next thing you know; that's my internet name. 
This is my face. 


I'm a 23 year old nanny, I consider myself a fat babe though I'm certainly an acquired taste. Aka I don't expect everyone to find me attractive; but that has no bearing on if I feel attractive or not. I enjoy FATshion, am a complete makeup junkie (I call myself a drugstore beauty queen), and tend to have diarrhea of the mouth. Recently, I've become heavily involved in the body positive movement, celebrating not only my own body but encouraging people of all shapes and sizes to love themselves. I'm going to try to make this a positive space, that's my only goal here.

That's me in a nutshell.

Actually, this is me in a nutshell. Please, enjoy the extremely poor photo editing.

Plus Size Shopping

Many plus size women believe they are limited in where they can shop and will put up with poor treatment just to continue shopping places (throwing shade at you Avenue) but this is far from the truth. I've composed a list of retailers that cater to plus sizes. All sizing is done in US sizes- but not all retailers are US based. Torrid - Sizes 10-30 in select styles (and more coming soon) Modcloth - Sizes up to a 4x SWAK Designs - Sizes up to a 6x (Use my referral link for a discount) JcPenney - Most sizes up to a 24 and select styles up to a 5x Rebdolls - Sizes up to a 5x Lovesick - Sizes up to a 5x Hot Topic - Sizes up to a 5x Ready to Stare - Sizes up to a 5x Walmart - Sizes up to a 5x Jessica London - Sizes up to a 38/40 ASOS -  Sizes up to a US 26 Yours Clothing - Sizes up to a 28/30 CityChic - Sizes up to a 26 in US (their 24 is comparable to Torrid/Lane Bryant 26.) Evans - Sizes up to a 28 Woman Within - Up to a 48W Lane Bryant - Select si

My Mirena IUD Experience- Deciding Which IUD was Right for Me

Image
Mirena , ParaGard , Kyleena , Liletta , Skyla- with so many IUD options out there now, how did I decide on Mirena? Well, let's talk about the differences between the IUDs!  And through this entire thing, please keep in mind that the option that is best for me might not be best for you- contraception is highly personalized. IUD- Intrauterine Device IUDs are in two main categories: hormonal and non-hormonal. Mirena, Kyleena, Liletta, and Skyla all work by releasing a hormone into the uterus. ParaGard on the other hand, is a nonhormonal IUD made of copper. Because I have PCOS and issues with heavy bleeding- I knew I wanted a hormonal IUD, but let's explore ParaGard before diving into those! ParaGard's working component is the copper coil- because it doesn't contain hormones it's a great option for those wanting to avoid hormones, those who HAVE to avoid hormones, or those who have normal periods to begin with. The copper IUD works by being hostile to sper

High School- A fat girls experience.

In high school I was ashamed of myself, my body. If you knew me in high school that might sound weird- seeing I hid it behind bitchy bravado. But it was there. Especially in the earlier years. I've always been fat. There's a lot of reasons behind it but how I got to be fat doesn't matter- how I was treated and learned to treat myself because of it does. Kids are jerks to each other- being the fattest kid in my grade made me quite literally, an easy target. It didn't help that my older brother helped all the other kids come up with ways to torment me. There was a time "Shaysquatch" was popular and kids would pretend (or sometimes use actual spray deodorant) to "Shay spray" me.. so I wouldn't eat them. Kids would wave and then start screaming- pretending I bit off some of their fingers. Basically- it went beyond your basic name calling. I had done nothing mean to any of these people. I just existed, in my fat body. I stayed strong in school bu
