I spent years hating my apron belly but I don’t care what other people think now, I’m a bad*** and I love my cute tummy
A WOMAN has revealed that she spent years hating her body, in particular her belly, which she calls her ‘apron belly.’
But now, Sarah (@fromsarahsleeve), a mid-size woman, has learnt to love her body and is trying to help others do the same too.
The fashion fan and mother regularly shares videos on TikTok, showing off her outfit inspiration, as well as body confidence clips.
In a recent clip, Sarah wore a black crop top, with black leggings pulled down to show off her stomach.
She said: “POV: You’re a curvy girl with a belly and want to find clothes that fit and make you feel like a bad***”
She then pulled up her pair of black leggings to cover her tummy, as she noted: “It’s kind of my thing.”
Her clip has clearly impressed many, as it has quickly amassed a whopping 823.4k views.
It has 27.4k likes, 78 comments and 35 shares.
Many social media users appreciated Sarah’s honesty in showing off her body and were eager to reflect this in the comments.
One person said: “This made me feel seen.”
Another added: “Not even kidding I just had an EMOTIONAL reaction to this post. I’m a twin mom and I swear I’ve never seen someone with my body” to which Sarah replied “I hadn’t either. Every mom I saw had a stomach that bounced back and mine was stretched out and full of deep stretch marks. We are out here!”
A third commented: “Omg our bodies are so similar. So glad I found you, beautiful!”
Whilst someone else noted: “Yesss girl!! I look EXACTLY THE SAME.”
In another clip, Sarah posed in a matching red underwear set and as she showed off her body, she shared her advice for those looking to feel more body confident.
She said: “But for real. You can do this.”
She then revealed: “I spent my whole life hating my body and decided this year I was done for good.
“That’s why I’m here for you.
“If somebody sees me confident and celebrating my body then they might start loving themselves too.”
As well as this, in another video, Sarah danced in a crop top and blue jeans, as she sent a message of empowerment to women lacking confidence.
She said: “I am your curvy friend, you listen to me.
“Stop all the self-loathing, it’s just your training.
“I’m gonna give you the permission to wear the crop top.
“I am your curvy friend, you listen to me.
“Your body’s gorg and your rolls are cute.”
