MUM-OF-THREE Finau Tua might have a BMI of 56.9 – but she says that doesn't stop jealous women trolling her over her good looks.
The 30-year-old from Brisbane, Australia, weighs 28 stone and is a size 26.
But she claims despite being classed as medically obese she's never short of attention from men who love her sexy curves.
And she says skinny women are jealous of the attention she gets and make her life hell by bashing her with mean comments and jibes on a daily basis.
Here she tells Fabulous her story.
Finau says: "Every day when I wake up and check my social media, it's the same story.
My feeds are flooded with cruel comments from women branding me “fat”, “obese” and a “waste of space”.
Recently, one told me I should “go to the gym” – even though I love working out and some of my pictures show me on the treadmill.
Another said I shouldn't wear such revealing clothes, while one particularly mean woman told me to "buy a tent."
I used to think girl power was alive and well and I believe in women supporting women.
But since I started showing off my size 26 body on social media to inspire women and men of all sizes, I can confirm it definitely isn’t.
I’m dead proud of my looks. I am beautiful inside and out.
But what’s shocking is the number of women who think they have the right to attack me.
When they find out I get asked out daily on Tinder – something I shared with my followers on social media – these jealous women really step up the hate.
The handsome hot men who message me can’t deal with neurotic skinnies who are obsessed with perfect Insta posts.
These skinny girls are clearly jealous that men love my open, fun attitude and sex appeal.
Most of my admirers are super fit, athletic men who love my confidence and ownership of my looks.
Idate all shapes and sizes and lovethat my body is accepted on the dating scene.
They also like the fact I say I am great in the bedroom and that I'm not afraid to show off my curves.
Men ‘slide into my DMs telling me I am hot.
I’m told I don't deserve a fella by many women and men.
But blokes who have dated body confident girls like me love that I’m healthy, happy with some curves to hang onto

Just because I'm a bigger girl, it doesn't mean I’m lazy. I work hard as a mum-of-three and freelance makeup artist – and I regularly work out.
And if people actually bothered to read my page properly, they would realise I also live with lipoedema, an abnormal build-up of fat in your legs and sometimes arms.
I was only diagnosed in August 2021, and while the pain can be debilitating I’m determined to show that people living with the disease can be sexy, healthy and fit.
Even when I tell trolls I have a swelling disease they don’t let up.
In the past it’s caused me tears and heartache – but I am determined to be a winner.

Still, it’s taken me a long time to get this positive mindset and despite the mean girls I’m determined to show people I deserve respect – even if it means constant abuse.
I’ve dealt with fat-shaming my whole life.
When I was 15 years old and a size 14, I was horrified to discover a page on Bebo named 'FFF' – which was a short for' Farting Fat Finau' -set up by the skinny girls at school to make fun of me.
It was crushing but made me determined to fight back.

I got pregnant with TWINS at 18 – at least I’ll be a MILF at 30
I wake up everyday with no memory – sometimes I think I’m 6 and my man’s a paedo
In 2007, then 16, I fell pregnant to my son, now 13. My second son, now 11, was born in March 2009 and over the course of those few years I gained eight stone.
I met my second partner, who I’ve since separated with, online in August 2013 and had my third son, now seven, in August 2014 via c-section.
I chronicled the ups and downs of my life on Instagram and TikTok not just sharing sexy pictures of myself but also my battle with depression.
After having three boys, I'll admit, my weight was out of control.
I’d stuff my face with takeaways, curries, pies, chips and chocolates.
By March 2018 I'd ballooned to 34.6 stone and at 5ft 10ins I had a BMI of 71, making me morbidly obese.
I knew something needed to change so I saved up and paid thousands for gastric sleeve surgery later that year.
I dropped eleven stone within twelve months – and when I posted a transformation video on TikTik it got more than 20 million views and went viral.
I was inundated with support, being labelled a ‘Queen’ for bravely sharing my journey.
However for every supportive comment, there was a hateful one to match.
But I have to try and move on. I say to bullies and trolls if you don’t like my posts don’t look at them.
When they tell me I ‘ate all the pies’ – I snap back I can’t eat, I don’t have a stomach, I have a gastric sleeve
Now I just think that if someone doesn't like my posts they shouldn't look at them.
I’m on fire and for the first time in my life, loving my body, inspiring others and sharing the sexyness.
As for the haters – I feel sorry for them. They’re just jealous.
