Actress Avika Gor, best known for playing young Anandi on the TV show Balika vadhu, has been in fashion since Wednesday.

In her post, Avika Gor opened up about all of her insecurities and said that she collapsed when she looked at herself in the mirror a year ago. She wrote that she “didn’t respect” her body. “I still remember one night last year when I looked at myself in the mirror and broke down. I didn’t like what I saw. Big arms, legs, a well deserved belly. I had let go too much. If it was due to a disease (thyroid, PCOD, etc.) it would be okay because it was out of my control. But, it happened because I ate anything and everything, and I haven’t worked at all. Our bodies deserve to be treated well, but I didn’t respect it, “wrote Avika Gor.

Such insecurities run through our heads all the time and make us feel tired and irritated. Therefore, I didn’t care. often from my relatives. “
Things changed after Avika decided she “had to evolve” and with that thought in mind, she focused on eating healthy and exercising regularly. “Well one fine day I decided that was enough and I had to move on. Nothing changed overnight. I just started to focus on the right things… things that I should be proud of (like dancing). I kept trying to eat better and exercise, and experienced several setbacks. But it was important that I didn’t stop and that my people were constantly there to guide me, ”she added.
Avika signed off on her post by writing about ‘feel comfortable’ in your own skin.

I smiled at myself and said to myself that I am beautiful.” She addressed her Instafam and wrote: “And you, the person reading this, you are beautiful too. We all have a lot to offer and we need to actively work on it, rather than feeling sad about it. that we can’t do. But, we have to do what we control. Today I am comfortable in my skin.

I still remember one night last year when I looked in the mirror and broke down. I did not like what I saw. Big arms, legs, a well-deserved belly. I had let go too much. If it was due to some disease (thyroid, PCOD, etc.) it would be good because it would be out of my control. But, it happened because I ate everything and everything, and I didn’t train at all. Our bodies deserve to be treated well, but I did not respect it. As a result, I didn’t like my appearance so much that I couldn’t even completely enjoy dancing (which I like) without thinking “what to watch now”. I was so busy judging myself and feeling bad that I left no room for strangers to make me feel bad. Such insecurities run through our heads all the time and make us feel tired and irritated. Therefore, I often criticized my relatives. Well, one fine day I decided that was enough, and that I had to evolve. Nothing changed overnight. I just started to focus on the good things … things I should be proud of (like dancing). I kept trying to eat better and exercise, and had several setbacks. But, it was important that I didn’t stop.

And you, the person reading this, are beautiful too. We all have a lot to offer and we need to actively work on it, rather than feeling sad about what we can’t do. But we have to do what is under our control. Today, I am comfortable in my skin. Today I am at peace. And I hope you are too? Share your self-esteem stories in the comments.
