Blogger’s side-by-side photos show the effect of high-waist leggings

These side-by-side photos will make you think.

Australian fitness blogger Beck Jackson is going viral after sharing an Instagram post showing the difference between high-waisted and low-waisted leggings.

There has been a huge reaction to her post too with almost 8,000 likes at the time of counting and her message has really resonated with her followers.

Sharing the side-by-side snaps, the 23-year-old points out that wearing clothes you feel comfortable in make you feel so much better.

Beck says that she prefers high-waisted pants and finds them more flattering but of course, someone else would say that low-rise versions are better.

“Why don’t you have a muffin top?” ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This question always makes me laugh because honestly, most people have a muffin top to some degree ??‍♀️ I just don’t wear anything low rise that hugs that part of my waist. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Low rise jeans or tights are SO uncomfortable to me, they show your butt crack and dig into your waistline making you look like you’re carrying more fat than you actually are. If you’ll notice, pretty much everything I wear is high waisted, or at least semi high waisted – tights, jeans, skirts, EVERYTHING! If it’s not high waisted I’m not buying it ??‍♀️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ But I have some friends who only wear low rise clothes and you know what? They look bloody fantastic! It all comes down to wearing clothes that make you feel comfortable. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Muffin tops, love handles, cellulite, armpit fat are all a natural part of life, it doesn’t mean you’re unhealthy or unattractive or anything less than any girl (or boy) who doesn’t have those things – it’s just the way your body carries your fat and skin because everyone carries fat and muscle differently, you could be the exact same height and weight as someone else and your body will look TOTALLY different! That’s why it’s so so stupid to compare your body to someone else’s body ✌? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #RealPost #MuffinTop

Another brilliant point made by the popular Instagrammer is that everyone carries fat and muscle differently and so clothes look different on everyone.

So, so TRUE.

Beck says:

“Everyone carries fat and muscle differently, you could be the exact same height and weight as someone else and your body will look TOTALLY different!”

As pointed out by Cosmopolitan, she also says that cellulite, muffins tops, love handles, armpit fat (the bane of my life personally) are natural and it just means that you carry fat/muscle differently and again, like the point above, everyone is different.

Hear, hear. We think Beck makes a very important point and it’s no surprise that her post is getting such a massive reaction.

The only good thing about the fact that it’s getting colder is that coffee tastes better for some reason ??‍♀️ @legacycamberwell
