In a recent Instagram post, actress and Food Network star, Valerie Bertinelli, opened up about her decision to stop weighing herself and how it has positively impacted her mental and emotional well-being. In the post, Bertinelli shared a throwback photo of herself in a purple bikini, along with a caption expressing her frustration with societal standards of weight.
The 63-year-old actress revealed that she no longer steps on the scale because she believes that the notion of being 'considered overweight' at 150 pounds is arbitrary and unhelpful. She expressed her disappointment in herself for having believed these standards for far too long. Bertinelli emphasized that she now understands her true worth as a person, beyond her size or weight.
