BODY CONFIDENCE COMES IN ALL SIZES…JUST ASK LIZZO
POP star of the moment Lizzo breaks the mould in terms of not conforming to the superskinny standards expected of female celebrities.
Some people accused her of ‘promoting obesity’ last week when she posted some admittedly eye-popping images of her bikini-clad body. But the 31 year-old Grammy winner sets a wonderful example to selfconscious girls, showing that confidence comes in all shapes and sizes.
There is no proof that pictures of obese individuals make others start overeating.
What we do know is that poor body image, low self-esteem and disordered eating pose serious risks to both physical and mental health.
And if seeing another body, just like yours, provides relief, then I’m all for it.
