Internet es un lugar maravilloso cuando se trata de motivarte para perder algunos kilos.
Pero no todos quieren perder peso, por lo que todos estamos a favor de las mujeres que han adoptado un enfoque alternativo a las transformaciones corporales que vemos tan a menudo.
Estas “transformaciones inversas” muestran a las mujeres que son mucho más felices en los cuerpos que tienen ahora, que han aumentado de peso, ya sea a través de la construcción de músculo o simplemente al calmar su dieta intensa y su plan de acondicionamiento físico.
Y para ellos, ha resultado ser la verdadera respuesta a la buena salud en todas sus formas.

#TRANSFORMATIONTUESDAY BACKWARDS EDITION! Okay enough with the obnoxious caps. So, I’ve gained weight 🤗. Also, I’m really HAPPY and I am not beating myself up! Since my lowest, I’ve gone through a number of life events, both positive and negative, that have tested my dedication and will power. Sometimes I won, sometimes I came in second (there’s no losing when you’re working on YOU). At my lowest I was at a place where I was eating a lot of foods I did not enjoy, and I was unhappy, which is part of the reason I “let loose”. •• Here I am again to stress to you that I don’t not have it all figured out. I am human, like you, and I slip up, like you! And here I am to remind you that this is normal and a natural part of this journey. It is a roller coaster. And you’ll always be finding your way. •• I’ve stayed happy this whole time because I’m always working on my mentality. As I always say, we must love our bodies in all states, at all times! Throughout this journey you will ride highs and lows, but you will never fail and will always come on top of you keep working on YOU. So if you’ve gained some weight DO NOT FRET. This is normal and you are not “failing”. You know what you need to do! And so do I. But am I upset right now? I am absolutely not. Because I have been killing my workouts, been gaining so much strength, and strengthening my relationship with myself. •• On that note, I am documenting my journey to getting back to a place where I feel most comfortable with myself. I do not have a goal of loosing a certain number of pounds, but I have a goal of building back a healthier relationship with food, finding a healthy balance, and keeping my binges under control (because this is the hardest part for me – I love working out) – – and I’m filming it all for you … to keep it real, and to show you that anything is possible. So keep your eyes peeled for that! I love you all so much, and I wish you a beautiful week 💜💜💜 Always keeping it real for you, and always thanking you x 100000 for your support.

Después de esforzarse por perder peso, Jovana Borojevic, una influencer de ejercicio, se sintió realmente decepcionada.
“En mi peso más bajo, estaba en un lugar donde comía muchos alimentos que no disfrutaba, y me sentía infeliz”, escribió.
Así que se animó valientemente a relajar el intenso régimen y, en cambio, a concentrarse en las cosas que la hacían feliz.
“He subido de peso”, escribió.
“Además, ¡estoy realmente FELIZ y no me estoy castigando!”
La Instagrammer continuó con su mensaje positivo de su cuerpo, escribiendo:
“¿Estoy triste ahora? Absolutamente no. Porque he estado matando mis entrenamientos, ganando mucha fuerza y fortaleciendo mi relación conmigo mismo”.
Y, seamos sinceros, eso es lo más importante.

Lately I've received a number of messages around weightloss advice and questions about which diet I followed for Miss South Africa. I want to give you honest feedback: I never followed a specific diet, but I made drastic lifestyle changes and literally trained my butt off. The picture on the left was after 5 months of intense training and absolutely NO carbs, red meat or alcohol. Chocolates, cake and sweets were swear words! I trained 2 to 3 hours a day and I even worked cardio sessions in over weekends. My boobs shrunk 2 cup sizes and my period stopped. On this specific day of the picture, I got home, freezing after the shoot, and I had a baby apple for dinner. From the picture on the right, more than a year later, I want to say, it's NOT worth it to fight a daily battle with food or your body. Bodies are different, we can't all look the same. Instead of having #bikinibody unrealistic-nonsense-goals that are being spoonfed to us on a daily basis, strive towards being the healthiest and happiest version of yourself (mentally and physically). Don't fight against something that is part of who you are. Self acceptance is a relationship that you have to work on daily. Be sure to make your body your new best friend. Light and love! #bodypositive #bodypositivity #bodyconfidence #loveyourbody #dietculture #unrealisticgoals #bebodyaware #healthnotsize #beautybeyondsize #droptheplus #everybodyisbeautiful #swimwear #bikini #curves #iamallwoman

Marciel Hopkins después de ponerse a dieta y entrenar de 2 a 3 horas al día, no se sentía tan bien como esperaba.
“Mis senos se encogieron y mi período se detuvo.
En este día específico de la fotografía, llegué a casa, congelándome después de la sesión, y comí una manzana bebé para la cena”.
Marciel renunció a su régimen e insiste:
“NO vale la pena pelear una batalla diaria con la comida o tu cuerpo. Los cuerpos son diferentes, no todos podemos lucir igual”.
La estudiante Amie ganó peso en cuatro años después de darse cuenta de que quería ser “una Amie más fuerte con mucho más músculo, que levanta pesas y … come mucha más comida”.
Jolene Jones pasó meses perdiendo peso y tonificándose para competir en concursos de culturismo, hasta que un día ya había tenido suficiente.
“Nunca fui suficiente y siempre necesitaba mejorar”, dijo, así que dejó su dieta rígida y su plan de ejercicios y no ha mirado atrás desde entonces.

I know I've shared this before but I'm sharing it again because it seemed to resonate with a good amount of people. . On the left was a couple weeks after I had broken my jaw, and had lost over 10 lbs. initially. On the right is a week or so ago. Now, I have never been someone to fixate on my actual weight, I didn't even own a scale until last year. But, for whatever reason, seeing that lower number on the scale messed with my head a little bit. I knew I needed to gain back the weight, but I think there is this automatic association that weighing less is somehow better. Obviously this is not true but I think that has been engrained in us by society. And to be honest, I knew I needed to gain back the weight but I didn't see the hurry. I didn't think I looked unhealthy. I thought I looked fine…lean even. It wasn't until I saw this photo on the left that I remember thinking, "oh, shit…definitely do not have a butt anymore" 😂 Which yes, is funny to an extent…but ☝🏼 it's also a little scary how something can be so engrained in us (a lower number on the scale) and us embody that without even knowing it. . Even for someone who doesn't use a scale (I just weigh myself for macro adjustments), I do understand how the number on the scale can have a big impact on someone. So I just really encourage you guys to adjust your goals based on what you see in the mirror and how you are feeling about your body (if that makes sense). Yes, the number on the scale CAN be an indicator of progress, but it is NOT the only indicator. I look at these photos and on the right is someone who is healthy, happy, confident, and those are the things that I strive for. Those are what will make your progress meaningful, not the number on the damn scale 👊🏼 #screwthescale #gainingweightiscool

A little flashback Friday action for you. This caption will be long and won't fit, so if you'd like to read please find the rest in the comment section….The left side was me at the start of the peak of my career. My first proper fashion week where I was actually the size I needed to be. I was booking amazing shows that one never thinks they actually could, walking with girls who I once looked up to, it was a serious adrenaline rush…but after fainting one night in my apt whilst preparing one of my very low cal meals (I think it was 20 pieces of steamed edamame if I remember correctly), I called it quits with the diet and workout regime I was put on and decided I could do it on my own. I thought to myself, I can still be this thin, but I'll just eat a little more so I don't feel so horrible. Well, eating a little more turned into eating nearly a bag full of almonds, which then turned into eating full size meals, which then turned into a full blown binge. I was craving every single food you could imagine and I was giving in to every craving even though I knew this was such an important time in my career. I made it through NYFW okay, no one had noticed any weight gain, but by the time I had gotten the LFW I could see the pounds starting to show both in the mirror and on the measuring tape, but I kept quiet obviously not wanting to sabotage myself. I found myself going to the grocery store and picking up raw vegetables to try and make up for the near two week binge I had in NY, but I didn't see any weight coming off no matter how "healthy" I was eating and no matter how many workouts I fit in. MFW came and I knew I was bigger and by bigger I mean a 35.5in hip rather than the 34.5in hip I started with in NY, I played it cool and just pretended everything was normal. I did end up booking shows, Dolce & Gabbana being one of them. Which I afterwards received online criticism about my thighs looking fat…Anyways PFW came about, and I found it impossible to resist those chocolate croissants 🙊 I went on many a casting with one exclusive option being on my schedule, but after meeting the client I knew the reason for me not nailing the gig, my size…

La ex modelo Liza Golden-Bhojwan ilustró cuánto cambió su cuerpo después de que ella dejó de “luchar” para que se ajustar su cuerpo a los ideales de la industria, y compartió lo feliz que está ahora.
Jess puede sentir que su cuerpo se fortalece desde que se dio cuenta de que “un solo número no define quién soy”.
Hoy en día, está abandonando la balanza y se encuentra “más fuerte, más sana y más feliz a su alrededor”.

2014- unhealthy. 2015- unhealthy. 2017- HEALTHY🖤 My #transformationtuesday as real as it comes. I usually cut out the bikini part of my journey, because Idk why but I feel kinda embarrassed. Thats not because of the sport it's self, I have a lot of respect for people who do it, but more because when somebody with a current or past eating disorder approaches me for comp prep- I immediately turn them away, but… I did it myself🤦🏼♀️. I went from anorexia, to recovered, to back into, what I'd describe as a more controlled eating disorder. I'm 2014 and 2015 I had an obsession. Obsession with food, exercise and my body. I thought I was of optimum health while competing. But there is nothing more unhealthy than putting so much stress on the body and mind to be low body fat %. I lost my periods, my hair fell out, and I was super emotional. My journey as a whole is what taught me a huge lesson on health. I realised that health isn't a number on the scale, nor how lean you are. Health is feeling energised. Fuelling your body with nourishing food and exercising regularly. It's having a healthy outlook on fitness and not letting it consume your life. It's having your hormones regulating properly. Healthy is when you're functioning at your best in all areas of your life🙆🏼 Don't loose the meaning of health, while trying to be healthy 🤦🏼♀️🖤 #transformation#selflovein6#annorexia#bikinicompetitor#recover#fitfam

Para la entrenadora personal Victoria, su viaje para ganar peso no fue fácil.
Sufría de anorexia (representada en la primera imagen), y un año después (en la imagen central) había desarrollado una “obsesión con la comida, el ejercicio y mi cuerpo”.
Mientras que ella creía que estaba sana en ese momento, Victoria ahora sabe que “no hay nada más insalubre que poner tanto estrés en el cuerpo y la mente para que tenga un bajo porcentaje de grasa corporal”.
Mirando hacia atrás, Mackenzie Forbes “nunca entenderá cómo me convencí a mí misma de que ser” delgada “traería felicidad y me haría sentir como si fuera aceptada. Poco sabía que levantar pesas, no matar mi cuerpo con HORAS de cardío todos los días y comer lo suficiente me llevaría al cuerpo que siempre quise “.

Hey babes! It's been a while since I introduced myself and a lot of you have asked about my personal story. So here goes… My name is Allie. I'm a mommy to two cute toe-heads and a pup, wifey to my high school sweet heart and lover of the beach. As you can tell, I spend a LOT of time in swimwear, confidently living in my size 16/18 body. But it hasn't always been this way. I spent most of my adolescence as an overweight, shy teen trying to avoid any situation that pushed me outside my comfort zone or put me in front of people. I worked desperately hard to lose weight at the age of 14, when I began my first diets, restricted eating and over exercising habits. I equated happiness to thinness. That once I was able to fit into hollister jeans I'd be the popular outgoing girl I thought I wanted to be. For 12 years I spent my existence completely consumed by my size. Fluctuating 100 pounds over the decade. Constantly comparing myself to others and never feeling enough or worthy. Even as a size 2/4 on my wedding and honeymoon, I could only see my perceived flaws. After the birth of my daughter in 2012 I had visions of her growing up and looking exactly like me. I verbally said that I wished that she wouldn't look like me. And at that moment I realized that I needed to change…not only for myself, but for my entire family- especially my children. And so I took the first steps to trying to find myself again, uncover my purpose, and retrain my mind to see beauty instead of imperfection. Over the course of the next 3 years I poured myself into the self help section of the book store, attended seminars, paid for expensive online courses, and began my spiritual journey. I constantly pushed myself to do exactly the things that scared me most, and the more times I immersed myself into the things I had been avoiding, it became my new normal. And one day, after seeing one too many transformation Tuesday photos of a grumpy fat woman turning into a happy thin woman, I looked back at my own journey and realized it happened to be exactly the opposite of what we are taught to believe. My hope is that these reverse transformation photos allow one person to find happiness NOW!

Subir 5 tallas de vestido puede ser algo negativo para la mayoría de las personas, pero no para Allison Kimmey.
Después de años de sentirse incómoda con su forma, y como resultado de una dieta, finalmente se dio cuenta de que su actitud tenía que cambiar cuando tuvo una hija.
Ahora se trata de abrazar quién es ella en lugar de desear que fuera diferente.
