As a personal trainer, Tiffiny Hall’s Instagram page is often home to workout tips and active wear selfies.
But today, Hall posted something very different.
Sharing a photo of her bloated stomach, Hall reminder her followers that “life isn’t always the shredded selfies you see on Instagram”.
“I almost didn’t post this, but trainers have bad days too and it’s important to share the highs and the lows with you,” the author and journalist wrote.
“Sensitive tum, TTOM [that time of the month], stress bloating. It gets so bad sometimes my clothes don’t fit,” she added.
The mum-of-one added that she believes the bloating is heavily influenced by stress.
“Your body has a powerful way of remind you about the importance of balance, so when the bloating hits that what I try to remember,” she wrote.
Speaking to Mamamia, the fitness entrepreneur shared the inspiration behind her honest post.
