The stuff of champions

February 14, 2017 by Jo Leave a Comment

I got to give it to Lady Gaga.  After performing in Super Bowl 51 she got a lot of shade thrown her way: for having a muffin top.  Really?  Anyone else out there experience a little extra pinch worthy skin at the top of your fitness pants?  (Or in Gaga’s case, her fitness panties)  Her reaction is really the lesson to take away from a lot of unnecessary body shaming:

“I heard my body is a topic of conversation so I wanted to say, I’m proud of my body and you should be proud of yours too,” she wrote on Instagram in the caption of a photo of her performing. “No matter who you are or what you do.”

Be you, relentlessly you.
