She says comments about her weight fluctuation 'really messed me up.'
. And now, she’s opening up about how comments about her weight on social media really made her feel.), "I experienced [body-shaming] with my weight fluctuation for the first time. I have lupus and deal with kidney issues and high blood pressure, so I deal with a lot of health issues, and for me, that’s when I really started noticing more of the body-image stuff."
Gomez went on to explain how a combination of her health issues causes her weight to go up and down. "It’s the medication I have to take for the rest of my life — it depends on even the month, to be honest. So for me, I really noticed when people started attacking me for that,". "In reality, that’s just my truth. I fluctuate. It depends what’s happening in my life.
Famous or not, nobody should have to hear strangers critiquing their body. Ever. But not to fear — Selena Gomez said she is "very happy with living my life," and she’s trying not to harbor ill will toward her critics.the "biggest lesson" she had to learn is that "[when it comes to] the people that have hurt me the most, to forgive them. And to continue to understand and have compassion for people.
But she's still not going to let her more than 160 million followers on Instagram in on every part of her life: "I don’t care to expose myself to everyone and hear what they have to say about it." That seems like a healthy and sound strategy to us.
