People always bodyshamed me because of the extra kilos of my body.

Yes, I have stretch marks and cellulite.

I don’t feel bad about them. I love my body more than anything else in this entire universe.

it took me 21 years of my life to realise that, my body is my only home.

Look at this picture.

Can you see my double chin and plump body? People body shamed me to the extent that I had self harm episodes because of it and got diagnosed with Clinical depression as well.

Children during school days used to make fun of my big belly. They used to called me a pregnant lady. I never told this things to my parents and there were nights when I used to cry to sleep.

Let me tell you something, Be your own kind of beautiful.

Fat is a body type as well but you don’t have to tell a person to lose weight again and again. Isn’t it her choice?

I have lost more than 35 kgs now.

You can always change the way you look but please don’t change it for others. Change it for yourself. Change it because you know that, your body is your home/temple.

Change yourself because you need a disease free body. Your energy levels will rise and you will notice that glow on your face.

Please don’t tell anyone, You’re not fat, you are beautiful.

My friend, You’re both, you’re fat and beautiful.

You don’t have to fit in their standards of beauty. Somewhere in the world, there are people who wish to walk with those thick legs that you hate so much.

Someone is praying to get amazing hair and skin like you. Don’t take yourself for granted.

I love you, Stranger. You’re beautiful more than you think.
