An ode to my belly 💋

I used to think my stomach was disgusting. To this day I still find myself sucking in my beautiful belly every time I'm in a tight dress or bikini. I would cringe at rolls that appeared when I moved any inch of myself.

I would body shame myself and others—and for what? Why do we try to conform and contort our bodies into this ideal shape of beauty?

Every body is different.

Every body is beautiful.

I love my body, and my belly, and you should too.
