Courtney Stodden is urging her fans to take care of their bodies as so many are under self-quarantine at home amid the coronavirus pandemic.
The 25-year-old reality TV star and lingerie model showed off her curves in a bikini snap posted to Instagram on Thursday along with a message about her weight.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}"When I came to Hollywood I was under 95. Sickly thin. Now I'm well over 100 and feel happier than ever," she captioned the post with a red heart emoji.

"I can’t stress ENOUGH how much better I feel with an extra 25 pounds," the Washington native wrote in a side-by-side photo of her in 2013 and 2018 that has since been deleted.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}"The left picture was taken in 2013 – I weighed 100 pounds, I never really meant to stay skinny by law but I think it was subconsciously branded inside of my head that THIN is IN.
"But the funny part is, I was my MOST INSECURE Now, 5 years later, at 125 pounds... I’m so much healthier," Stodden added. "I’m so much HAPPIER and I feel my sexiest just be happy everyone and PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT CONFORM (especially if it’s subconscious) #curves #liveyourbestlife."
