Bigg Boss is always filled with contestants who don’t shy away from speaking their hearts out. With the kind of the patience that they build inside the house, they come out as a completely different person. Well, who can forget Diandra Soares, the bold contestant from Bigg Boss Season 8 who was in an affair with fellow contestant Gautam Gulati on the show? She has not only been a bold woman, but also has maintained her body so well that it shows.  And it was not easy for her. Well according to reports, Diandra recently wrote a powerful note about her struggle with weight and thyroid. She was shocked when she was diagnosed with hypothyroidism. And so Diandra decided to write a note. Miss Malini posted it:

 

Having been a supermodel, I’ve always struggled with being a “fashion size” to fit my job requirement. I’ve been super skinny but I am also a big girl. I’ve seen many fluctuations weight-wise over the years… of course, my job required me to be a certain size. Now, 20 years later in this business, I was recently diagnosed with hypothyroidism and that was quite shocking. It was a personal struggle for me as I was trying my best to deal with it.



Still being in the public eye and part of the entertainment industry that can be very brutal is hard. In fact, it’s not just us women, men also hate on their bodies. We hate on ourselves, we kill ourselves. Some of us hardly eat and see life just go by. We are always cranky or unhappy -Always hating. Life happens, bodies change…we need to start loving our bodies, show respect.

 

Big is also beautiful. No judgement, no hate, no shaming. I’m in no way saying ‘don’t work out and just eat and stay there’. In fact, I work out twice as hard now to knock off the thyroid weight, but I still eat. Yes, I may not fit in an extra small size, I wear a medium or large with pride now.

 Diandra Soares is an Indian model and VJ who made a cameo in Madhur Bhandarkar’s fashion. She is known for her strong presentation of her bald looks on the ramp. In Bigg Boss house, she entered as a soft-hearted lady with pleasant character. Her locks are worth checking out. As far as her presence in the house is concerned, she doesn’t look like the ‘bitch about them’ girl. But, who knows. Bigg Boss changes perceptions!





Accept yourself, be yourself, love yourself – it will automatically pass on to the people around you. After months of struggle I’ve realised, I am still bloody sexy, I am still fun, I am still beautiful! Nothing has really changed after all… I AM STILL ME!

 

BE YOU!

 

Well Diandra you have always been an inspiration for all and we hope all body shamers get that now!
