Gym Star Reveals Her Bloated Tummy To Show That Instagram is Just A ‘Highlight Reel’
The best way to compare this is how your wedding album is all about the best moments of the party. There’s you laughing at your friends being funny and your parents shedding tears of happiness. There weren’t pictures of the messy children, the food that fell over, the bridesmaid’s loose hairclip, or the groom’s awkward face while giving his speech.
Your Instagram posts are probably the good things you want to share with others.
Molly Ava Fit wants her followers to understand that Instagram pictures are about the best moments people want to show others. The online coach who has over 100k followers revealed her tummy.
With over 102k followers, Molly Ava Fit is known for her workout tips and encouragement to stay happy and healthy. But on a platform where people often push concerning expectations and toxic body images, users and especially impressionable youngsters, have to be reminded that an Instagram post doesn’t represent people’s whole lives.
Her side-by-side image showed the difference between when she had her tummy tucked and sucked in, and when she was relaxed with a bloated tummy.
She shared a list of reminders captioned on the post, “No one’s body looks the same 24/7. Comparison is the thief of joy. Your chapter one will look very different to someone else’s chapter ten.”
“Instagram is a highlight reel,” she ended the list.
“Happy Hump day you beautiful souls, keep shining.”
Molly reveals that she doesn’t always maintain her figure and would document herself whenever she wants to bulk up.
Her followers have been thanking her and this isn’t the first time she’s been sharing positive posts with her fans. One told her, “Thanks for being the literal blessings – these reminders help so much.”
“This is the vibe I’m here for.”
Another told her, “Your posts make me feel 100x better about myself.”
