A WOMAN has taken to social media to show off her plus-size body in a bikini, as she revealed that no matter your size or shape, you should be able to wear what you like.
Christine (@amidstthechaos) recently took to TikTok, as she posed in a leopard print bikini top and a pair of black bikini bottoms.
The woman, from Canada, shared her clip with the caption ‘Every body is a bikini body’ and in the video, we saw Christine emerge in her swimwear.
As she put on her white, heart sunglasses, the plus-size woman noted: “Now this, this is a bikini body.
“I’m ready to go and p*** some people off at the beach.”
As she strutted around, Christine oozed confidence and her clip has clearly impressed many, as it has quickly amassed 992.4k views.
It has 27.7k likes, 883 comments and 7,161 shares.
Social media users were quick to praise Christine on her confidence.
One person said: “You go girl!! You look fantastic!!!!”
Another added: “Good for you! People need to stop worrying about what the haters say.”
A third commented: “Love this!”
Meanwhile, someone else posted: “Good for you! I wish I had the same confidence!” to which Christine replied “You can! Just gotta work at it constantly and silence the voices in your head saying you aren’t thin enough.”
In another clip, Christine revealed that she has received some nasty messages about her appearance from trolls on social media.
In response to a comment that read: “Omg I just watched the end of the video with you in it. You SO do not need cookies, hun”, Christine responded to the rude commenter.
She clapped back and said: “I’ve worked really hard on my self-esteem, to get to a good place mentally, so this little comment, doesn’t actually bother me.
“But because I know that these kinds of comments have the potential to completely destroy someone’s self-confidence, I am going to address it.
“These comments are not welcome in this community and I would challenge you to think long and hard before commenting about someone’s image, online.
“You have no idea of the struggles that they have gone through.
“If you don’t like what they look like, or you don’t agree with their lifestyle, maybe just unfollow.
“Fatpohbia and fat-shaming is not a good look.
“Let’s be better people.”
