Press Release Body: Montreal, Quebec - Fat is Beautiful Inc. announces the launch of
www.fatisbeautiful.com, a supportive, accepting community where big people can share
their pictures and voice their thoughts openly without worrying about prejudice or
misunderstanding. With the increasing popularity of social networking and online
photo and video sharing sites such as MySpace, hi5, and YouTube, people are
encouraged to reveal their true selves and build online relationships based on
common interests. Unfortunately, for obese people who may already feel isolated,
many online communities do not protect them from the same harsh judgement and
rejection they face in real life. Fatisbeautiful.com allows its members to create
and manage their own content, giving them a sense of control and freedom. Built with
web 2.0 technology, the site has a fresh, clean look that members will enjoy using.

Says founder Sidney Bitton, "I wanted to create a space where we can post our videos
with dignity. Overweight people deserve to feel good about themselves, and should be
able to enjoy sharing their pictures and thoughts with other people who respect them
and think they are beautiful. I believe that by providing a positive environment,
fatisbeautiful.com will help fill a void for overweight people and allow them to
benefit from honest, open online relationships. We do have personal ads, but
fatisbeautiful.com is a community first, and a dating site second."

Users can join fatisbeautiful.com with a Silver membership for free as an
introductory special. As members, users can post written entries, photos and videos,
and then control which friends can access their posted content. A chat room provides
a space for live discussions, and personal ads with targeted searches help soul
mates find each other. For more information, visit www.fatisbeautiful.com.

Fat is Beautiful Inc. is a privately-held company whose mission is to help
overweight people overcome a lifetime of prejudice, misunderstanding and rejection
in order to have relationships based on respect, common interests, and
companionship.
