Former figure skater Stanislav Konstantinov She said she often posts candid photos online not to get attention, but because she enjoys it.
– Recently, you often exhibit candid photos – how do your fans and audience react to this?
– Actually, I can’t say there’s a direct reaction to that. I can’t say I have some kind of goal or I suddenly woke up and decided to take some candid shots. It’s just that somehow I feel changes in me – I become more open in communication, an open soul to the world.
I worked with a psychologist, worked a lot on myself, on some of my problems with the figure, with food, and I started to treat myself with love. The last few years in sports, I’ve been so rotten with myself, and it’s been so hard on me that I don’t always get what I want… At some point I realized: “Damn, well, my body isn’t to blame for it, it’s that I do everything on my own.”
It’s easy to say, “Love yourself.” Here, take it and love yourself, if you’re sad – don’t be sad, that’s what I love. But it’s not very easy. I began to take care of myself – to begin with, to feed myself, to go to bed on time, not to scold myself, not to dig yourself out unnecessarily, not to end up. I gave up the anxiety of money, of the future, of sport, and I thus began to see myself as beautiful in certain ordinary moments! I stopped worrying about my figure, because of things, because of my appearance – I didn’t care what they would think: frankly, not frankly. I like it, it’s beautiful for me – I will not go to wrap myself, hide myself.
Yes, my body has changed, yes, I gained weight – by the way, I gained 10 kilograms, probably at first. Yes, it was difficult to accept, to bear, I felt ugly. It was hard, especially when you were used to being perfect, dry, cool – and even then I was unhappy with myself. And now, of course, I couldn’t wear the clothes I liked, and I couldn’t fit into my own. It was so hard!
Then at some point, I forced myself to let go and never go back to it again. And I started transforming – I don’t look at the scale, I don’t weigh myself, I don’t look at the number. I just started liking it. I started to notice that I was going back to my old stuff, and somehow I thought, “Why can’t I post pictures? Why do I have to conclude, close? Well, if I love myself, and if I like this. If I was in a relationship, of course, I probably wouldn’t post such photos – it’s not that I post them on purpose to get someone’s attention, no, I just like it. I always have a very positive attitude about it – not only from my side, but also from everyone.
