"My boyfriend prefers me curvier, when I eat and am healthy and not so worried about my looks, I'm happy. Happier than I've ever been," she said.
She encouraged her fans to do the same by helping one another and embracing their bodies without fears of being judged.
"Now that the body revolution has begun, be brave and post a photo of you that celebrates your triumph over insecurities," she wrote.
