In October, theHot in Clevelandstar said she felt beautiful afterfinding her old “fat clothes"in the back of her closet. She posted a video onInstagramafter finding the outfit she wore in her very first “before photo” as a Jenny Craig spokesperson.
“I thought I was fat the last time I wore these clothes,” she said. “I’ve never felt more beautiful, more at peace, more mentally and emotionally stable than I do today and I’m wearing my ‘fat clothes.’ That’s f—ed up.”
Bertinelli added in the caption that she found the old clothes in the back of her closet and although she doesn’t know why she kept them, she’s glad she did.
“I continue to work on not suppressing or numbing my feelings with food or alcohol and here I am. I am enough,” she wrote. “Our bodies do not define who we are as human being’s. A number on the scale does not define how much love your heart can hold. 🩷Please love yourself, every single part of you. YOU ARE ENOUGH 🤍✌🏻”
