“My girlfriend sent me this pic, and I could clearly see the weight I’ve gained which is about…8-10 pounds. I think I will keep it. I like being a lil…fuller;) Let's just hope it will fit in The Oscars dress”, she wrote.

“Here's to loving our bodies by our own standards:) Happy Monday!”, she added.
