A California mother finds herself in trouble again on Facebook.

Last month fitness enthusiast Maria Kang was in the middle of an online controversy after posting a picture of herself wearing work out gear with her three kids and the words “What’s your excuse?” written across the photo.

This past weekend, Kang wrote a pot-stirring Facebook post criticizing a campaign featuring plus-size women in lingerie.

The post wound up getting her reported for abuse and then blocked from Facebook. It’s still up on her blog.

Facebook has since called the incident an “error,” and has apologized to Kang, but says her post will not be restored. She has written about the incident on her blog, titled “Sorry but not sorry.”
