Everyone, especially women, always desires a proportional body. However, many of them discredit themselves if their body shape does not meet their expectations. Tara used to be like that.

"Since forever, all I heard from people was negative things about their bodies, so I ended up doing the same... criticizing and belittling," Tara wrote in the caption of her post.

Tara herself has gone through that phase and now she accepts herself as she is. That's why she is not ashamed of her heavier body, even if it means she will be criticized or lose her fans.

"If only we were more accustomed to seeing the good and positive things, being grateful for what we have and making the best out of it instead of focusing on what we don't have," she continued.

"After a long journey, I can say that I love my body and I'm proud of it. Let yourself bloom," Tara concluded.

3. Responding to Netizens' Curiosity

As suspected, many netizens were shocked to see Tara's body shape. Some even asked why Tara suddenly became very overweight despite adopting a healthy lifestyle. The actress, who was crowned as the 'Best Female Lead' at the 2015 Indonesian Film Festival, answered without hesitation.

"In the past, I always pushed my body beyond its limit, as long as it fit the beauty standards in my mind. But after being able to learn to listen to what my body needs and wants, I can be wiser and happier, because I enjoy every moment. I'm still learning until today, but now the priority is to be respectful to myself, no matter what I do. And now I eat a balanced diet, both delicious and healthy, and still exercise," Tara responded to a netizen's question.
