“The Thundermans” actress shares some prolific words regarding confidence

Story by Kristine Hope Kowalski

One thing we absolutely love about Kira Kosarin is how she’s always so refreshingly honest about her journey. In a time when most celebs’ social media pics are either fully photoshopped or not fully representing reality, she’s taking a difference stance. And we are totally here for it. 

The Thundermans actress took to Instagram to share this photo of herself wearing the same shirt she’d been photographed in about two years ago:

Kira seized the opportunity to tell her followers about how seeing her changing body makes her feel conflicted – but more or less beautiful! “2015 –> 2017,” she captioned the above photo. “At first I saw this and I was like, ‘aw damn I got thicker ??  .’ And then I saw this and was like ‘aw daammmnn I got thicker ?? .'”

“But in all seriousness, I’ve been working on loving my slightly heavier body these days and tbh I’m kinda digging having the extra 20 lbs,” she added. “Imma let myself feel bomb with my chubby little cheeks cuz if they’re good enough for chipmunks and bunnies, they’re good enough for me.”

Kira, you’re more than good enough – you’re so beautiful now!! Watch more inspiring words in our exclusive interview with Kira below:
