Loving and being grateful for your physical appearance as it is is indeed difficult to do. However, this celebrity has succeeded in inspiring us if we can do it.
Diversification of body shape should be celebrated because it is one way to love ourselves. There’s no need to overdo it, taking care of ourselves can be a form of gratitude for the body we have. Accepting and loving one’s body is increasingly popularized in body positivity campaigns, including by celebrities.
In fact, there are a number of celebrities who are said to be popularizing body positivity. Having bodies that are far from what is usually seen in magazines, they actually invite women to remain confident in appearing as they are. Who launched the body positivity campaign? Here are some of them.

Sometimes people close to you will try to take your joy- but it’s important to remember who you are and never be afraid to shine. #wordsofwisdom,” he wrote in one Instagram caption.
