Brittany Snow on Body Image and Self-Acceptance
Brittany Snow has openly discussed body image and self-acceptance. In Shape, she shared her perspective on turning 30:
When I turned 30, I looked at my life and realized that I’d always been on a diet and working out to be the size of a model. I thought, I’m 5’3″, and I inherited my mom’s beautiful muscular body-it’s just not going to happen. So I began eating well to take care of myself-I’m almost 100 percent vegan, and I’m off dairy and gluten. I realized that my health and happiness were way more important than being at the gym all the time.
