Instagram Weight-Loss Star Shares Inspiring Post
When stories of significant weight loss go viral, it's not unusual to see a makeover that appears to show someone who's gone from obese to fit, firm, and flawless. But in reality, weight loss - even extreme weight loss - doesn't lead to the perfection that's portrayed in carefully angled and edited photos, and one Instagram star wants people to not only realize that but also accept imperfection and celebrate themselves beyond their bodies.
New Zealander Riley Hemson has garnered more than 75,000 Instagram followers on her account @healthychick101 as she's shared her weight-loss journey. Once 250 pounds, she has lost nearly 70 pounds by embracing a healthier lifestyle. However, a new post shows she's also embracing the rolls and cellulite she still has, and she's encouraging her followers to do the same.
