Actor Neha Dhupia has a positive message for all those who are targeted for body shaming. She urged people to accept one's body by posting throwback pictures of herself with a tag 'been through thick and thin'.

Mumbai:Actor Neha Dhupia has shared posts about accepting one's own body and ignoring any kind of body-shaming.

She shared pictures of herself and wrote, "Be kind to yourself and your body, it’s the only one you’ve got! It took me a while to understand this and be proud and comfortable in my own skin. If you’re reading this, DON’T waste as much time as I did! Your weighing scale doesn’t define you, you do! ..#beenthruthicknthin."

The 39-year-old also shared a video from her reality show. "Remember that photo of yourself from 5 years ago that makes you feel bad about your current weight? Well that same person 5 years ago had something else making her feel bad about her weight. We’re programmed to feel unworthy, to feel not good enough! ... #beenthruthicknthin," she wrote.

The actor has always been talking about spreading body positivity and how it's unfair to troll a new mom for her weight gain. She is often seen giving back to the trolls on social media who target her for her weight gain post-pregnancy.
