About The Fat Femme Mafia:

The Fat Femme Mafia consists of Chelsey Lichtman and Liz Brockest, a Toronto based performance and activist duo on a mission to spread the message that every BODY is a GOOD body. Whether they are scratching out weight loss ads with a sharpie, parading their chunky selves across a stage, or expanding public awareness on issues pertaining to bodies and health, the FFM are large and in charge and not afraid to make it known. Chelsey and Liz have toured their Love your Chub campaign all across North America dressed sometimes in their finest muumuu’s and other times in their best dresses. They are probably the diet industry’s worst nightmare and can be reached at www.myspace.com/fatfemmemafia.
