6 Times UCSB Yik Yak Ditched Skinny

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at UCSB chapter.

One of the first things you’ll notice about UCSB is how incredibly good looking and fit everyone is. This can be either the worst self-esteem killer or the biggest motivator to get fit. But don’t think that everyone is obsessing over chiseled abs, thigh gaps, or small waists. I actually did some research. I took it upon myself last week to take screenshots on my phone every time I saw a Yak defy the whole “skinny” mentality. I wanted to prove that… no, you’re not the only one who wants to eat everything in plain sight and regret nothing!
