She continued:"Still there is something in some young girls that often makes them feel they just don’t measure up. I was one of them. I look back at these and think that worry was such a waste of time. If only the perspective we gain with age that elevates the worries could be absorbed by the younger generation but I do think shifting the focus to feeling great is a great step in the right direction.
Some Instagram fans responded to Christie's post saying that she still looked just as good today as she did then, and others thanked her for not being afraid to discuss body shaming."You thought you were fat?!?? Absolutely stunning! But yes I agree on the feeling of body shaming. The industry appears to be better now and yes beautiful comes in all sizes. ❤️" commented another fan.
As the fashion industry continues to become more accepting of bodies of different sizes and shapes, Christie's post is an important reminder that being happy is much more important than any number on a scale or a photo on a magazine.
