hey there, I’m from Brazil, and of course there are no notes of this in here, but don’t worry. I made a thousand of them, and I’m putting all around my school, my German school, and other public places, putting them in Portuguese and in English. Hoping people will join soon!
I am a senior in high school, and as I walked in the bathroom crying from a bad day after lunch I opened a stall and began to use the restroom. When I went to get toilet paper I saw a yellow post it note on the dispenser that said, “The scale measures a number, not your worth.” I thought about it for a second and stopped crying. After washing my hands I went back in the stall and took the post it with me to carry around for the rest of the day, and everytime I started to get upset I would read it again. It motivated me to believe in myself not only today but in general and realize everyone has a unique body that can’t be judged on a standard. So I thank you for starting this operation. I will now begin doing this, hoping it will help others like it did me. Thanks again!
Hey Kayla,
I know how hard it can be in high school. I’m so glad that you found that note and that it was able to help you. Remember that you are beautiful! <3
Hi, I live in california, and i haven’t seen any operation beautiful post its yet. But i know that other girls will, because i will be posting them <3
What your doing is absolutely amazing!! This will change everything.. Thanks so much!!
i live in california too and i had never heard of operation beautiful until this weekend when my mom told me about it…i love the idea and i think that soon CA will be filled with these notes too…
im from california also! i just looked at the computer today and this site was on it and i looked at it and i love it! i will definitely be posting notes now:)<333
Operation Beautiful is amazing!! I havent seen any notes yet but dont worry I will start posting them!! This website really brightened my day!! God Bless!! Thank You!!
My town is filled with girls who wish they were different in one way or another and constantly bringing others down to make themselves feel better. I start college in 2 days and I believe they might be in for a bit of a shocker when they see my notes popping up all around the place!
Heyy, I think that putting the notes on places like YouTube and Facebook are a great idea!
I <3 operationbeautiful and post notes where ever I go!
I live in Scotland and I found one of these of a bathroom mirror in a little cafe and it made my day
I love the idea!
I will start posting notes!
<3
I actually learned about this through Superchick.
I live in IL and I’ve yet to see one. So I’m gonna start posting them in every girl’s bathroom they’ll let me into! On the sidewalk in chalk! Everything!
I’ll get my friends to join in to. I’ll bet if we teamed up we could make a giant “You’re Beautiful” on the Sidewalk by our Junior High!
hey, wuzup sisters around the world. I’m writting from Lima Perú and in here we haven’t heard so much about this, specially because it’s in english and not so many people have advance english but still, i’m going to let those beautiful posts in my ernglish class bathrooms and in every public place, the think is not to compare and to make ourselfs a promiss to not judge another person by the way they look
. Love to all, we will get better, we have to fight our own minds and not to be an object for guys but to give ourselves to the men enought to see throught our physical beauty: the inner which is more important even tho it might sound cliché, it is true, beauty is a state of mind and no one should make us doubt about the way we feel !
I was in my local wawa yesterday. I saw a note on the snapple refridgerator and took it. It was a operation beautiful sticky note. I kept it. It actually made me smile when i read it.
this is such a great idea! I’m posting a note first thing tomorrow! you are beautiful!!!
YOU are beautiful–yes, YOU!
I love these videos soooooo much!
While overall I try not to fat talk, I slip a lot. So I’m grateful to have these videos to watch when I do slip, because they leave me feeling 100% better. God bless you Operation Beautiful!
ps. I’m going to post a note at school tomorrow
Ive never seen any Op.Beautiful notes before but i just made 15 notes && im going to post one in a different spot every day at my school! Love this website <3
I am going to strt them in my school too!!
i am an 8th grader in minnesota. i decided i am going to start carrying around post it notes to put in grocery store, on lockers, in the bathrooms, and well, everywhere.
confidence is beauty.
Im a freshman in High School and going to do the same.
Smile(:
Im starting my own mission at my school in the UK. Im posting little notes on mirrors and bathroom doors and the occasional few in books just to brighten up anyones day. I posted my first today on the bathroom scales, my first of many
None in New York, yet. I’m going to be posting these in every place that I can in my school. Hopefully we’ll start a huge thing in my school, and hopefully we’ll make the world a better place, one post at a time.
And something else I did today. I can make hearts out of paper, and on them I wrote “You’re beautiful! If you don’t believe in yourself, who will?” and, “You’re important! Someone, somewhere, thinks you’re the world! Remember to SMILE! ”
A lot of people like it. This one girl even found me after school and hugged me, telling me how I made her day. It felt really good.
I hope this starts a chain reaction.
I live in Texas and I go to a high school were every girl has issues with their body. Many cut due to their issues with their body, many are bulemic or aneroxic..
I’ve never seen a note around my school, but I AM going to change that. <3
I live in Texas too!
I’m carrying around sticky notes starting tomorrow! I use to suffer from depression and I DO NOT want any other girl/women feeling the way I did. Operation Beautiful is a go ;D
Thank you.
i’m gonna start on Peru TOMORROW. i’ll post post-its on my school’s lockers.
i have seen a ton of these up in my schools bathrooms and i know a ton of people who say there ugly and take it an make them read it

I just found out about this website. I thinks it is an amazing idea! I live in The Netherlands and I have never seen such notes here. I’m gonna start tomorrow. I wil put them up in my school and in fitting rooms in clothing stores. I hope people will read them and start doing the same. It would be amazing if I would find a note myself some time.
Saw my first note today. Adventure of love here I come!
I saw a note in the Tim Hortans bathroom down my street.
So I wrote down the site, and when I got home I went on it.
What an amazing site.
Going to Kroger tomorrow and putting notes up everywhere.
I’m glad there’s a group of people who accually do this <3
This is an awesome idea!! I am going to put my first one up tomorrow at school! A little scared, but super excited! I hope someone will read it and it will make them feel better about themselves! <3

I have been trying to make a difference in my school for a while now. Since seeing this website and the way it has touched so many people, gave me another way to change my school. Thank you for the mission. I will be putting these up everywhere I go now!!!
Hey! I’m from New Mexico and I haven’t seen post-its either, but they will be everywhere soon!!
Operationbeautiful has impacted my life in such a way I cant even describe! I will be promoting this idea to my school and try to get as much people to get involved!

Hey guys, I’m from Australia and have never heard of operation beautiful. I’m going through a rough time as I just lost my best friend to suicide I also have a lot of body issues and am on my way to losing weight healthily and you guys have inspired me to help make somebodies day better, who knows by sticking some lovely post it notes around school I may just make myself smile on a bad day. (: thankyou. Operation beautiful is underway in Australia as of tomorrow. <3
I am sorry to hear about your best friend
This is so inspiring! (I think i spelled that wrong:/ )

Post notes on cars too! stop signs, cars, put one in a random book at the library, SPREAD THE LOVE!!! Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!! Im so inspiried if anyone didnt notice in my rant ha ha ha ha ha
Greetings from Northern Michigan Univeristy. I’ve heard of this site from a facebook picture post via a fellow freshman where her note stated, “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder” with this site written at the bottom. I was curious to read more and typed in the site and stumbled upon greatness. This is my first day on this site and so far I think it’s a GREAT idea. The outstanding statistics regarding eating disorders is sickening until I, myself, agreed with the other 50% of women who would rather be ran over my a truck than be fat. I’m struggling with weight and have been bulimic for two years in my past. It’s an every day struggle but I’m working towards seeing the beauty in myself now. It’s hard – but I think this site’s idea will help. I will start posting notes around campus as college seems to be the right place for other women to see these encouraging notes. In conclusion, THANK YOU for hope. Hope is in everyone and it’s so nice to finally see hope being spread around the world!
ifound a note like this right after an embarassing moment in the cafiteria. imade my whole day, it was in the bathroom. shows there are really good people in the world
i found out about this today and put some up in the mall but tomorrow they are going all over school! lets get TEXAS going!
There are also starting in Texas too!!!!
Thank you so much for this great idea! I saw your posts on the Fat Talk Free Week Facebook page. I have been struggling with dieting/starving by day, and then overeating or bingeing at night, and ever-increasing weight for 30 years. I started at 120, was put on a starvation (1000 kcal) diet by my pediatrician when I was healthy and superfit and active, loving sports, and now I am 313 lbs. :..( I want to warn every woman and girl to never, ever undereat, it is unhealthy, dangerous, destroys one’s energy and self-esteem, and in the long run, it will only increase your weight. Please fill up at least 3 times a day on the full range of nutritious foods: starches, proteins, and fats. Your body will say “I don’t want it!” when it’s had enough. Make breakfast the biggest meal of the day (or as caloric as the other meals), then lunch, and then all you want for dinner, too
I wish I had learned that years ago, instead of doing the reverse, starving myself all day til my body was screaming for fast calories from sugar and tons of calories from loads of fat, to make up for the dieting/undereating all day.
My nutrition teacher taught us that it is well known to nutritionists that undereating causes low blood sugar, so the body craves table sugar because it has calories that reach the blood stream faster than from any other food; and with low blood sugar, the body craves extra fats, because fats have the most calories per gram, to ensure sufficient make-up eating after getting too hungry. So dieting makes people crave the least healthy things: low-nutrition foods loaded with table sugar and extra fat. So diets teach us to restrict normal, nutritious foods which makes us so hungry we crave junk food! Doctors have it all wrong when they tell us to cut calories! In the long run, dieting causes weight gain.
I’m in Northern California and going to start your Post-It trend here. Thank you so much, and hugs to all the women and girls in the world fighting all this terrible pressure to undereat and be thin, and these crazy, unhealthy undereating schemes that doctors mistakenly tell us to follow. They are wrong, and we pay for it. I am now learning that the average moderately active woman needs ~2200 kcals/day for health and to prevent yo-yoing or bingeing. Please say no to dieting and thank you for helping others to do so too!
mexico is gonna get some post to! thank you!
I’ve been putting up post-it notes in the bathrooms of MSHS in the US and I keep hearing from a few people how it made their day or helped them change the way they see themselves and it couldn’t make me any happier! I feel in High School it is important because so many people feel bad about themselves or their appearence. I have an entire sticky-note pad full of these notes which is about several hundered soon to make others happy. :] I can’t wait to use them all!
Please tell me there are showing these in schools? Teenage girls need to see these!! We need to stop the insanity NOW!! I know I 4 teenage girls and 1 boy. Its all about how they look.
I’m from Birmingham, AL and found out about this website today via http://blog.al.com/spotnews/2010/10/message_on_birmingham_overpass.html
I think this is a wonderful idea and I can not wait to start putting notes up around Birmingham.
Taking this to the desert southwest . . . ‘thank you’ is not enough . . .
Hey guys, Imma 12 year old and my middle school is about to become a change, every girl will realize thier beauty. Oh and before i go…..

Are Beautiful But This Is The Perfect Idea! <3(:
Found 1 at Kroger in Madison AL in the bread section today. It made me SMILE! I cannot tell you how many other women walked right past it and did not even see it. Think there will be a few more stickies around when I get out of the house again! Thanks!!
