Healthy looks good on me, and I’ve really come a long way and I couldn’t be prouder. I used to be underweight. Underweight to the point my rib cage would stick out further than my breasts did.

I used to get bullied for how I looked, I never had real friends in school and it made me put a wall up. I wasn’t outgoing, I went no where besides the places I of course had to go.

Then I also never gained weight, so my hips were very prominent, forget summers of having fun wearing swimwear and going swimming. That wasn’t a thing. I stayed 5ft 8 for years, I haven’t grown in height since I was 16. But my weight didn’t change for years either. At 5ft 8, I was 100lbs even.

I’m now 20, I’m 130lbs.

My breasts stick out further than my ribs! 😂

I comfortably wear bikinis.

I don’t feel ashamed to look in the mirror at myself.

I’m confident.

I’m outgoing.

I’m blessed to have gone from the lowest part of my life, where I was so depressed it was a struggle to eat, to get out of bed, to brush my hair, to brush my teeth.

And now, I’m 20, healthy as can be. I brush my hair, brush my teeth, have my own apartment now, a great job, and I’m super confident. I wouldn’t imagine to be where I am today, but here I am. Killin’ it! 😂

Update:

I never expected this to go as far as it had and I’ve read every single comment. I couldn’t possibly reply to each one, but thank you all so much for your kind and positive words! At the beginning of the weight gain I was so insecure as I wasn’t used to it but now I’m more confident and everything y’all have said is making it easier in a way.

Just curious if any one has continued to go to spin class at 36 weeks and on?
