Old insecurities 🌿 I used to always want to appear smaller than I was, I would walk around sucking in my tummy for as long and as hard I could. I would always pose in photos and suck my tummy in as much as I possibly could. I was worried people would judge me for ‘not being skinny’ for no reason. And it’s silly to always be worrying about something so unimportant. Being leaner doesn’t change who you are as a person. There’s nothing wrong with anyone’s body the way it looks relaxed. There is no need to constantly worry about what people think about you, because the only opinion of YOUR body that should matter, is YOURS. Don’t let the media make you think you need to look ‘skinny’ to be worthy. You are absolutely amazing the way you are. 🌴☀️ —————————————— . . . #bodypositive #youareamazing #stopcomparing #comfortableinmyskin #lovetheskinyourein #beyourownkindofbeautiful #tummyfat

Much like the pregnancies within the Kardashian household, knowing what the hell to put on your dinner plate can be very confusing.⠀ ⠀ We're constantly being told to 'eat this' and 'not that.' It's important to remember everyone on Insta has their own opinions, goals, morals, lifestyles, tastebuds, cravings and fetishes (of the non-sexual variety). And it's even more important to remember – so do you 💃⠀ ⠀ I prefer to keep things simple, quick, #balanced and *very important* delicious. So when building my meals, I generally use a basic structure of;⠀ ⠀ – 2 portions of veg⠀ – 1 carb source⠀ – 1 protein source⠀ – 1 fat source⠀ – some saucy sauce (usually/aways hummus)⠀ + whatever else I've bought for a damn food post that week lol⠀ ⠀ As I said, everyone has their own preferences – and this is just mine. It's a loose structure which I aim for Mon-Thurs evenings*, and then just pick and chose whatever I fancy within that 👅 ⠀ ⠀ *I usually dine out a weekends and/or FriYaYzZz.⠀ ⠀ P.s. Partially convinced by the Kylie surrogate theory ngl. @KrisJenner pls confirm?

EXPOSING all the model poses on the gram in this weeks self-care Sunday video ▶️(Link to watch in my bio)👆 Swipe to see 6 of the 7 before and after that I show in real time in my video➡️ Please watch the video to understand these series of pics 😘 I wanted to get super real and show u how drastically and instantly ppl can change how they look simply by posing! Let alone good lighting, high quality cameras and photoshop! I've talked about this a lot in the past but in this video I show you 7 ways in which posing can dramatically change how we look. I'm super excited to share this with you, I myself still pose and there's nothing wrong with moving your body in ways you feel most comfortable or confident but let's be honest and show the actual process. I've been modelling 14years so I learnt some stuff I want to share with you all. Because life's not perfect, social media lives aren't Perfect and neither are us or our bodies. And that's exactly how it's meant to be! Because we are all imperfectly perfect and 100% unique. So s/o to all the real ones who keep it 💯 celebrate every single inch of pinkcandyfloss you and who you are! I hope you enjoy this video, thank you so much to @elleusa #FashionForAll and @youtube for making this possible. —– What I'm wearing: @aerie bralette @americaneagle jeans @ph5official bodysuit in the vid @tai_jewelry hoops —— And to clarify non of these pictures have been retouched or photoshopped! #aeriereal —— Free online screening tools to help identify eating disorders available @NEDA website. www.nationaleatingdisorders.org/screening-tool
