Nollywood actress and influencer, Eniola Badmus has opened up on her social media to express her feelings about missing her old chubby body. She shared her thoughts on Instagram, revealing that she is still in the process of adjusting to her new figure after undergoing a significant transformation.
In her Instagram post, Eniola Badmus explained why she feels nostalgic about her former body. She acknowledged that she is learning to adapt to the changes, but there are days when she finds herself missing the body she once had. According to her, this feeling of longing is part of the journey as she continues to embrace her transformation. She wrote about how she used to feel more familiar with her curves, the fullness of her body, and the way it occupied space. Eniola fondly remembered how certain outfits used to fit her perfectly, providing her with a sense of comfort and identity that she never had to question.
Eniola Badmus, who underwent weight loss surgery to achieve her current slim look, previously revealed that she had gone through gastric bypass surgery to reduce her food intake. This transformation marked a major turning point in her life, and while she now appreciates the emotional and physical growth her new body has brought, she still holds onto a deep connection with her past self. In her post, she acknowledged the difference in the way her body moves and feels now, but she emphasized that it remains hers and deserves love and appreciation.
Eniola's message was empowering and reflective as she stated, "There are days when I miss my old body – the fullness, the softness, the way I took up space without hesitation. I miss how familiar it felt, how I knew its curves like the back of my hand, how certain outfits hugged me just right. There was comfort in that body, a sense of identity I never had to question. But then, I look at my new body, and I see growth not just physically, but emotionally. This body has carried me through change, through challenges, through moments of doubt and discovery. It moves differently, it feels different, but it is still mine. And just as I learned to love my body before, I am learning to love this one now."
She continued, acknowledging that missing her former self doesn't diminish the appreciation she has for the person she is becoming. "Missing who I was doesn’t take away from appreciating who I am becoming. Both versions of me deserve love, respect, and kindness. And in this journey of transformation, I remind myself that no matter the size, my worth remains unchanged."
