When talking about summer time, many people hear one thing: “Bikini Season.”

One mother shared her journey to loving her own body by wearing something unexpected – a “dental floss” bikini.
Seen looking at her toned profile in the mirror during a short video shared on TikTok earlier this year, lizz (@lift_w_lizzie) celebrated her progress towards fitness.
“Finally being comfortable in my own skin after having a baby, losing 40lbs & no longer letting the stretchy skin on my stomach bother me #mombod,” she wrote in the video.
No bikinis can be seen in the video, but lizz does play upbeat music in the background while showing off her form.
“Dental floss bikinis this summer,” is written in the description of the post.
Dozens of people on social media liked the video and some of the influencer’s fans left supportive comments.
“Love to see it! Keep it goin!,” one person wrote.
“Be my gym buddy,” another posted.
lizz says she is Mexican and a gym lover in her profile and has shared lots of videos of herself offering fans tips and advice.
She is not the only influencer who has embraced the hashtag #mombod.
TikToker Jane (@oldermommyjane), 47, has also talked about her love of bikinis despite her “wobbly mom bod” and says men love her.
And fans loved when another woman shared her look for “thick girls” with “mom bods.”
The struggle to accept differently-sized bodies is difficult.
One woman in her 30s complained that her “mom bod” prevented her from keeping guys who initially liked her appearance.
