Ashley Graham on relearning to love her body after the birth of her children
— the handbook that no one can give you," she recalled, adding that in 2019 after the birth of her first son, Isaac, she"obsessed over 20 pounds that just wouldn’t come off". It's a feeling that she experienced once again, with a heightened sense, after welcoming her twins."The aftermath was deeply overwhelming," she explained."I was a wreck, and when I saw myself in the mirror, I still felt like I looked pregnant.
The model continued:"I work in an industry that expects me to return to work in a body that has 'snapped back' – a pressure that no woman, in any industry, deserves to feel. I have always fought against unfair and unrealistic standards and yet, if I am being completely honest, here I was, expecting myself to snap back. And fast."
