Amy Schumer took to Instagram to share a body positive message with her fans.
The comedian has been subject of a lot of trolling about her weight in the past, but she has always taken it in her stride and is unapologetic about it.

She posted two mirror selfies on Instagram on the topic. The first one she captioned, “Today’s look. You can be sick and not be a size 2 and still feel great about yourself! #sickbutgrateful #thosesheetsdoe #ieatpastaalot”
She then posted a close up of her stomach, captioned: “Solution areas! Try and only be kind to yourself today. Love yourself like you’re your own mother (@nikkiglaser told me that once)
She made headlines a few months ago when an Instagrammer shared this comparison of her body and the goddess Aphrodite. Schumer thanked her for posting, saying “I love this. Thanks for posting. #Aphrodite #belly“
She also posted this photo of her in the surf, and addressed her trolls specifically.
“I meant to write “good morning trolls!” I hope you find some joy in your lives today in a human interaction and not just in writing unkind things to a stranger you’ve never met who triggers something in you that makes you feel powerless and alone. This is how I look. I feel happy. I think I look strong and healthy and also like miss trunchbull from Matilda. Kisses!”
This is great to see, especially because Amy Schumer should be celebrated on a lot more than just her looks as the first woman to ever make Forbes’ highest-paid comedian list.
Go Amy!
