Selena Gomez is making significant strides in her body positivity journey … embracing her physical changes throughout the years, while acknowledging there’s no going back.

The actress posted an old photo of herself, in which she looks significantly different — sharing a bikini snap to her IG Stories Monday from years earlier … writing that she’d never look like that again. Hard to say if Selena sees that as good or bad, but she’s pointing it out.

SG then shared a recent swimsuit snap of herself from behind — and while she undeniably still looks great … the star used it as a reminder to practice self-love. Selena says despite not being “perfect,” it’s OK to be herself … and she’s proud of being who she is.

Worth noting … Selena has faced body-shamers in the past, so it’s interesting she’s speaking up on this.

In 2022, she famously said being skinny wasn’t worth the hassle of denying yourself your favorite foods … adding, “Bitch, I am perfect the way I am.”
