I recently read a news item about Indian model/actress and former Ms World Sushmita Sen that I thought I would share here:

“You know what? I’ve never had a problem with what I look like. When I was, you know, khaate peete ghar ki, a few months ago, I loved myself then also.

And I love myself right now, after shedding a few kilos. What I look like does not change the person I am,”

BTW, “khaate peete ghar ki” would loosely traslate as ‘chubby’ or well fed.
