Body posi Nelly London shares her summer season physique urging others to disregard ‘voices’
It’s that time of year when every personal trainer and diet company tries to sell you a quick fix to lose weight.
However, body-positive influencer Nelly London is promising you that you’re a “gorgeous ray of sunshine” just the way you are.
Standing in a bikini, looking in the mirror, Nelly can be seen listening to the “voices” in her head, writing: “My feed every year when summer is approaching”, as people try to tell others how to lose weight quickly – often unsustainably and unhealthily.
Posting on her Instagram account, @_nelly_london_, she urged people that their “body is already summer-ready”, and if they were seeing similar stuff on their feeds, to simply ignore the negativity.

She urged people to “take up space on that beach like you deserve”, rather than being concerned that you don’t look perfect enough. “We get 75 summers here on this earth and that’s if we’re lucky, so don’t you dare waste one more summer feeling like you don’t deserve to enjoy it”, she urged.
In the caption, she backed up what she’d said in the video, sharing: “But seriously, we’ve got to at least try to protect ourselves from the overwhelming amount of voices we hear every single day telling us what we should/shouldn’t be doing with our bodies, especially at this time of year.”
Nelly received an overwhelming amount of likes and comments on the video, with almost 20,000 people sharing their support for the body-positive message she was imparting.
Of course, there were some naysayers, who wrote things like: “People are allowed to want to feel better about their bodies no?”, but they were far outweighed by people who wanted “more of this type of content”, and who commented fire emojis, and “yes!”, followed by love hearts to approve of the reel.
