Promoting body positivity
Take Away English｜BBC Learning English

Appreciate your body for what it can do – walking, yoga, playing sport or otherwise. "You can be an incredible human regardless of your shape or size," says Esther Field, a body-positive social media campaigner interviewed by the BBC. After knee surgery, "I attended the gym and realised how strong and capable my body was, even though it was fat."
欣赏你的身体，因为它能做很多事情——无论是走路、瑜伽、运动还是其他活动。“无论身材或体型如何，你都可以是一个了不起的人。”这是身体自爱运动社交媒体活动家埃丝特·菲尔德接受BBC采访时表示的。在膝盖手术后，“我去了健身房，意识到我的身体是多么强大且充满力量，即便我的身材偏胖。”

And finally, don't forget that low self-esteem and body confidence issues affect everyone. "There aren't a lot of guys that are pushing this idea of body positivity," David Fadd, a plus-size male model of two years told the BBC. The social media influencer wants to remind us that body image and confidence affect men too.
最后，别忘了自卑和身体自信问题会影响每一个人。“没多少男性在推动身体积极性这种观念。”大卫·法德对BBC说。作为一名已经当了两年的加大码男模，他是一名社交媒体影响者，他想提醒大家，身体形象和自信心也影响着男性群体。
