Neha Dhupia shares her '#beenthruthicknthin' story
Earlier on July 2 the actor-host took to Instagram to speak about body positivity by sharing a promo from her show Roadies Revolution and a bunch of throwback pictures, showcasing her journey over the years. In the promo shared by her, Dhupia spoke about gaining 23 kilos during her pregnancy and also expressed being afraid of not getting opportunities ahead in life.
However, she later expressed her gratitude to MTV for including her in the Roadies family and standing by her as a strong pillar of support. Along with sharing the posts, she also penned her feelings about how she would look at her old photos and worry about getting back into that shape, which led to her feeling unworthy in a long IG post. The caption of her post read:
Remember that photo of yourself from 5 years ago that makes you feel bad about your current weight? Well that same person 5 years ago had something else making her feel bad about her weight. We're programmed to feel unworthy, to feel not good enough.
Be kind to yourself and your body, it's the only one you've got! It took me a while to understand this and be proud and comfortable in my own skin. If you're reading this, DON'T waste as much time as I did! Your weighing scale doesn't define you, you do! ... #beenthruthicknthin
