I want to forget about how I hated myself for being \u201dfat\u201d in other people\u2019s eyes and just remember the things that I love about my body.

Thirty-one-year-old Kapamilya actress Bea Alonzo gets vulnerable in the latest photo she shares on social media while vacationing in Coron, Palawan.<\/span><\/p>\n

In the post shared last Sunday, February 17, Bea is seen flaunting her toned body in a blue bikini talking about accepting her physical appearance. \u201cI have always been the type who would choose not to post photos of myself in swimsuits,\u201d she admits, \u201cbut since I declared this year as the year of change, I thought that maybe I should change the way I view myself.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

In the caption, Bea elaborates, \u201cMaybe, I should get rid of all my insecurities so I can live more. I want to forget about how I hated myself for being \u2018fat\u2019 in other people\u2019s eyes and just remember the things that I love about my body. It\u2019s the only body that I am blessed with and I am thankful for my health because I get to do the things that make me happy.\u201d\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n

The post concludes, \u2018\u2019I hope that this post could inspire other women to love themselves more, flaws and all. Let\u2019s all work hard to better ourselves for us and not just so others could accept us.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Many of Bea\u2019s celebrity friends supported her statements as well, actress Liza Soberano calling her \u201cbeautiful,\u201d while host Anne Curtis comments that Bea looks \u201camazing.\u201d Body Positivity advocate Iza Calzado even shared, \u201cIt makes me so happy to read this. You deserve the best kind of love and acceptance, the one that comes from yourself. You are so much more than just beautiful, you are worthy.\u201d Bianca Gonzales-Intal gave her thoughts as well, stating, \u201cLove the caption and the photo. Amen. Sometimes we focus too much on what we don\u2019t like and our insecurities, we fail to appreciate what we were given.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
