The content creator posted two snaps of herself side-by-side to show just how her body has transformed in recent years.One showed her posing in her gym gear looking very lean and a lot skinnier, while the other showed her looking more muscular, healthier and totally amazing.In the post she revealed that she's gained 40lbs since the first picture was taken, and said she's developed a whole "new mindset" towards nutrition.She said women should be striving for fitness results that "empower" them, as opposed to striving for a specific look or a certain number on the scale.

Writing on Instagram, Lulu said: "Nowhere near my smallest self but definitely my happiest."As women we’re told SO often that fitness means shrinking ourselves down as much as possible."Like so many of us, I spent AGES fully bought into the myths that are constantly marketed to us."I’ll be able to love myself if I just lose a couple more pounds."I have to lift light weights so I get toned."The less I eat, the faster I’ll see results."There’s around a year and a half between these photos, and in that time I’ve built not only a new body (>40 lbs heavier), but also a whole new mindset toward training and nutrition.
