A plus size influencer has admitted she is the “happiest” she has ever been being a size 18 and “hated” herself when she was a size 8.
Liv, who posts under the Instagram username @selfloveliv, often shares body positive content where she flaunts her tattooed curves to her 135,000 followers.
The dark haired beauty has revealed that she used to struggle with body image issues and disordered eating when she was younger and when she had a more petite frame.
But, ever since becoming more comfortable in her body Liv has shared that she is the happiest she has ever been at a size 18.
Since her weight gain, the influencer has learnt to love herself and her body – and it certainly shows in her recent Instagram post.
Liv has now shared her weight gain transformation which saw her go from a size 8, then to a size 12 and to now, a size 18.
The influencer posted three side by side snaps to show how she has gotten curvier and happier over the years.
On the left hand side snap, Liv appeared to have a glum look on her face as she looked at her phone and donned some black sunglasses along with a white sleeveless top.
She also covered most of her face with her hair and the shades. At this point, the influencer was a size 8.
In the middle picture, the body positive babe now sported a slightly fuller look as she stripped down to a black bralette that accentuated her cleavage and some undies that sat just below her hips.
Liv appeared happier as she scraped her hair into a ponytail and smiled with her hands placed on her hips. In this snap, the influencer was a size 12.
In the right hand side photo, the gorgeous inked star oozed confidence as she grabbed her tum and grinned at the camera.
Liv wore her long black locks down as they rested upon her boobs that were secured in a cheeky mesh bra.
The influencer now wears a size 18 and looks absolutely radiant for it.
She captioned the post: “People hate the fact that I am now a size 18 and the HAPPIEST I've ever been.
“I hated myself as a size 8, full of self loathing, shame, body image issues and disordered eating.Now? I've learnt to APPRECIATE my body. I'm hot stuff man!
“Gaining weight may be the best thing to ever happen to you.”
Liv urged her fans: “Fall in love with yourself BE your own best friend, BE your biggest cheerleader, BE your number one fan. hating yourself hasn’t worked, let’s flip the narrative.”
Inspired by Liv’s self-love post, many people fled to the comments to praise her for the transformation.
One person commented: “This makes me so so happy. you are such an inspiration!”
Another user added: “Your self love is contagious!”
Whilst a third person voiced: “Oh my goodness I [love] this!! Thank you so much for sharing! So many people believe that if they were 'skinny' they'd be happy, it doesn't work like that!”
Someone else noted: “Seeing the progression of evident joy on your face is amazing! More people need to understand this.”
