She wrote:
“This month tested my mental health, but here I am, still standing, still grateful, still happy, still a fat covergirl… but I’m also fucking exhausted. I know this photo will piss people off, it will be shared worldwide while being mocked & judged, saying how I’m ‘negatively affecting’ impressionable young minds, & I’m prepared for that. My body has always felt like a war zone, but I’ve made peace with that. It’s your minds that need to change. –
This is a photo that wasn’t used from my @selfmagazine cover shoot a couple months ago & I am still in awe of how beautifully @catherineservel captured me.
#effyourbeautystandards”
The body shaming needs to stop!
