TOP BLOGGERS UNITE TO LAUNCH “WEARETHEREALDEAL.COM”, A NEW ONLINE
SPACE FOR WOMEN TO GET REAL ABOUT BODY IMAGE ISSUES
New York, NY (July 22, 2009) What happens when five acclaimed body image writers come
together with the common goal of turning talk into action? You get a unique, irreverent blog that
shares opinions and sparks debate on everything from fitness and beauty to dieting and size
acceptance. You get honest answers and even more thought-provoking questions.
You get WEARETHEREADEAL.COM.
Founder Heather Blessington (mamaVISION.com) and contributors Carla Birnberg
(MizFitOnline.com), Kate Harding (kateharding.net), Claire Mysko (clairemysko.com), and
Veronica Noone (ronisweigh.com) have each built loyal audiences who are passionate about
many aspects of body image, including weight loss, eating disorders, fat acceptance, nutrition,
fitness, media/fashion influence, pregnancy, and parenting.
WEARETHEREALDEAL.COM is the first blog to bring those diverse voices together in an open
dialogue. The contributors might not agree on every issue, but they are united in their
commitment to help readers take steps toward healthy self-esteem and positive body image in
their “offline” lives.
