'Working in the modelling industry from the age of 13, I was constantly told I was too big, which was reaffirmed when the clothes didn't fit me. 

'That made me believe that there was something wrong with my body, leading me to have a very negative relationship with my size.

'It took a long time to heal that relationship. Thank goodness I know today that I need to be grateful for this able body that I have, and appreciate it for all the things that it enables me to do!'

She said: ''It took me a long time to get comfortable with my body'
