Commenters Are Praising Giuliana Rancic For Gaining Weight

While fat shaming is an epidemic on the Internet, skinny shaming is a serious problem too. Just ask Giuliana Rancic who’s been the victim of vicious tabloid articles and social media chatter surrounding her frail figure, with many insinuating she had an eating disorder or that the breast cancer she’d beaten had recurred.

In order to put an end to the rumors, Rancic opened up to People last year to explain her slim frame, saying that the cancer-suppressing medication she had been taking altered her metabolism and facilitated weight loss. “I’m sorry that some people think I’m disgustingly skinny, as they put it, but there’s nothing I can do,” she told the magazine. “I’m lucky that I even have the type of cancer that reacts to the medicine.”

However, times seem to have changed for the television host, who recently posted a bikini selfie on Instagram looking like a much healthier version of herself:

Although only a small change, fans were immediately supportive of Rancic’s apparent weight gain. “Omg looking amazing G! You’ve put on some really good healthy weight and looking fabulous!!” said one commenter. “You look fantastic!!!! Good for you!” said another.

Although it’s wonderful to see so many positive comments on the E! News correspondent’s post, the big picture indicates that regardless of size, commenters continue to voice their opinion and focus their attentions on a person’s physical appearance, especially in regards to celebrities.

To further the point, Dove recently launched an inspiring film after their research team found that 7 in 10 women agree that they receive more compliments and comments on the way they look, rather than on their accomplishments, further proving that there’s a never-ending judgment placed on women’s appearances.

So, instead of talking about Giuliana Rancic’s slim figure, find out more about the opening of her brand new restaurant, RPM Italian, in Washington D.C. Congrats to Giuliana for her ongoing success!
