I lost 170 lbs but get trolled relentlessly about my loose skin, they say I’m ’embarrassing’ and have a ‘front butt’
A FITNESS influencer has lost 170 pounds, but now she gets trolled relentlessly about her loose skin.
People say that her body shape is “embarrassing” and that she has a “front butt.”
TikToker Ana Alonso (@ana.fitness.vsg) created a video after people were mean to her online following her weight loss success.
She previously revealed she used to be 420 pounds, and now weighs 250.
On the day she filmed her original video, she was excited to wear new leggings because they were colorful.
Ana said it took courage to put them on for her workout.
“I felt so cute. It was such a fun color. I almost always wear black,” she said. “It’s the only way I can ‘hide’ my body.”
But people weren’t supportive: “The number of mean comments I got was unbelievable.”
According to Ana, they said things like: “She has two butts” and “That’s so embarrassing.”
People also wrote: “The baby is long overdue;” “How do you let yourself get like that;” and “I will never want to look like that.”
Ana said she was trying her best.
“I know my body doesn’t look normal, but I’m really trying,” she said. “I’ve come a long way. I used to be 450 pounds.”
Ana asked for people to be kind: “You never what what someone may be going through. I’m not giving up.”
“I always try to be very positive and let the negativity roll away, but sometimes I just wish people were just a little bit more kind,” she added.
