Sharing a recent picture of what she currently looks like on Instagram, Lauren called out the comments she’s been noticing that seem to be disappointed that she lost weight.
“You know what’s fun? When you’re living in a larger body, people post that they’re concerned for your health. Then, when you transition into a smaller body, people post that they’re concerned for your health,” she wrote. “Starting to feel like there’s no winning as a woman. (Big shocker given this past week in America.)”
She continued, “I honestly never expected the vitriol I’ve experienced over the past week simply because I’ve lost weight.”
Lauren went on, questioning why some would say she is less of a role model because she lost weight.
“Why was my body the only thing that gave me value as a role model?” she asked, adding, “I’ve never once promoted weight loss, nor would I ever. I just happen to be in a body that’s smaller right now than it was a year ago.”
“You have no ownership over my body. Nor do you over any person in the public eye. And honestly? Would you ever tell a man he was no longer a role model because he lost weight? Exactly.”
Heading to her Twitter, Lauren added one more comment, saying that she will “continue to post photos of myself, as I have at any weight I’ve ever been, celebrating the true privilege it is to be alive. And, if I’m being honest, now that I know it pisses people off so much, I’ll probably post more. Kisses!”
