Sophie's message is an eye opener for everyone who has been trying to lose weight the wrong way & more importantly for people who do not respect their bodies & go to any lengths to be skinny to ape their favourite actresses on screen.
Her post read, 'When life gives you curves...flaunt em. When I moved from London to Mumbai, I was always made to feel curvy, voluptuous, not skinny like many others. Didn’t know how to handle the fact that my body type was different until I realised that is what is special about me.. the fact that I'm curvy but fit.. a body type many strive for! It’s something I work at not for others but for myself because irrespective of your body type, fitness and health should come first! And whatever shape or size you are, you can be fit (sic)' You go girl!
