I'm thick, round, and PROUD!
But by no means do I use my pride as an excuse to sit on my ass and eat Cheetos all day. Although, I do have a weakness for dark chocolate and almonds <3.
I usually strive to be healthy inside and out and also physically active. Afterall, you have better sex when you work out on a daily basis

.
EDIT: I'd also like to add that "THICK" varies with different racial/ethnic groups.
What a black man would call "thick", a white man would call it "BBW and unhealthy".
I also work in the strip clubs as well. So I know from first hand experience.
