Earlier in the year, Badmus shared another set of before-and-after images alongside a message directed at plus-sized women.

Her words carried a clear point: carrying extra weight is not what holds a person back, but rather the self-doubt and self-hatred that can come with it. She encouraged women in similar situations to embrace who they are while working towards whatever goals they set for themselves.
