Nigerian initiator of Amputee United, Adenike Oyetunde is embracing her
body as she embarks on a new adventure...learning how to swim. She posted these
photos on her Instagram page and wrote:
"It's
easier for people like me to wear tank tops, sleeveless tops, above-knee
skirts(because I don't have fat arms, or stretch marks); but, I have realised,
not everyone is this confident.
Some can't because they don't like
their bodies, others are scared of what people will say. (P.s: please work on
your body, if you really want a change) but in the mean time, LOVE your body.
Embrace your body. That's all you've got.
Today, I applaud bodies that have carried humans and are not as they used to.
I applaud bodies that are undergoing some panel beating. I applaud me, for going out of my comfort zone to agree to doing this. As I prepare to learn to swim (don't postpone things oh, old age na wa), I love my body now, and will do even later. I feel very beautiful, because I am. So should you..#EmbraceYourBody
