When you post a cute photo of yourself on Instagram, the last thing you'd want is for it to turn into a meme. Especially a mean one.
But that's the reality a plus-size blogger was confronted with after a photo of her in a crop top was appropriated as a meme.

Noonie's original post featured a long caption about how she's learned to love her body. "If you're struggling with loving your self step back and point out the things you love about yourself and start accepting you as a person," wrote Noonie. "Remember self love is the best love."

After discovering the meme, Noonie re-grammed the meme and posted her response to the body shamers who posted it.

"No I don't have the flat stomach to flex in a crop top/bralette but I have a muffin top to do so," wrote Noonie.
She said she didn't understand why "people still body shame" because it's "quite pointless."
"You don't have to be skinny to rock a crop top or bralette," she added.
She said "ladies with stomachs" should wear whatever "the hell you want."
"As women we have to learn to build each other up instead of trying to break each other down," she added.
Preach!
