Kelly Osbourne Doesn't Consider Her Skinny Self "Skinny"

Kelly Osbourne has been maintaining her weight beautifully after her huge 50-pound weight loss!
But she still has body image issues and wouldn’t consider herself a “skinny” person.
She said:

“I was called fat and ugly in the press almost my entire life. I understand that being judged by others comes with the territory, but it broke my heart and ruined my self-esteem. It sets you up to hate yourself in a huge way.”

She went on to explain that this media related self-hate caused her to turn to drugs. saying:

“I was so angry about the things people said about me. I truly believe it├óΓé¼Γäós the main reason I turned to Vicodin and ended up in rehab three times. I just hated myself. I replaced the drugs with food and just got fatter and fatter.”

So now that she’s found better ways to cope with media exposure and is finally happy with her body, she has realized she doesn’t want to strive for perfection.
She said:

“Women are so unforgiving of themselves. We don├óΓé¼Γäót recognize our own beauty, because we├óΓé¼Γäóre too busy comparing ourselves to other people. We are not all Gisele Bundchen or Beyonce, but I can tell you even the most beautiful girls in the world have felt insecure. Just seeing the pressure my friends Kim Kardashian and Kate Moss are under makes me never want to be the prettiest in the room. There is no such thing as perfection.”

Exactly! There is no such thing as perfection, so you gotta learn to be happy with who you are, like Kelly did!
The only person who’s opinion matters is your own. Be happy with the body you’ve got!
