Candace Cameron Bure Claps Back at Troll After Getting Body Shamed for Her Weight
The actress responded to an Instagram comment on a picture of her and her son Lev.
Candace Cameron Bure isnt here for peoples negative comments about her weight.
Responding to a comment left on a sweet picture of the 42-year-old Fuller House star cuddling up with her 18-year-old son Lev, Bure spoke out against an Instagram user who left a body shaming comment about her figure.
“All that excercising [sic] and you still look like you weigh more than your husband, did you change your diet?” the social media user wrote in a comment found by the @commentsbycelebs Instagram account, which seemingly mistook Bures 18-year-old son for her husband of over 20 years, Valeri Bure.
Although Bure chose not to correct the social media user on that point, she did speak out against their body-shaming comment.
“If a 25 inch waist looks big to you … then youre looking through an altered lens. Be well,” she wrote.
The Fuller House star previously told PEOPLE that she “feels the most fit and strong that Ive ever felt in my life.”
In addition to fitting in workouts whenever possible, which can consist of anything from “a 20-minute workout a couple of times a week, or an hour five times a week,” the actress attributes her toned physique to the healthy diet she follows.
“I eat a very plant and grain-based diet,” she said. “I follow a more Mediterranean diet, so I eat lots of fresh vegetables and whole grains and fish. I dont eat dairy very often, and Ive cut most of the sugar out of my diet — I see the biggest effect from not eating as much sugar.”
While Bure has been open about struggling with bulimia when she was younger, she has recovered from it.
“Its something that Im always aware of and that I do think about, but having been healthy for so many years, its not something I have to think about on a daily basis,” she remarked. “Its not something that I struggle with anymore. I really found my joy in fitness, and then as I get older Ive just been fine-tuning my diet and I enjoy eating what makes my body feel the best.”
“I feel a real sense of accomplishment about what my body can still do, and I want to keep it in shape and keep it strong for so many years that are ahead of me,” she told PEOPLE. “You kind of take your body for granted when youre younger, so the older I get the prouder I am of the things Im able to do with it.”
