I have to make an apology to everyone - I was sent a picture to share on social for Fallon that was altered without me knowing to make my arms look smaller. I won't say by who - I know it was done with severely misplaced positive intentions - but this goes against everything I believe and I am extremely proud of every inch of my body. And I can assure you all it will never happen again. I could not be more appalled and hope you all forgive me□□

There she is ladies and gentleman. The woman that is a role model to little girls everywhere. Sure, she took some time away from the public spotlight to consider suicide and decided the only reason to continue living was to carry her married boyfriend's children, but all that is in the past. Now she's back and she's more empowering than ever. Take a look everybody. This right here is how you embrace your own body. If you accidentally post a photoshopped picture of yourself you don't just delete it and post the new one in it's place. You have to make sure you tell everyone how sorry you are for your mistake, and remind them that women of all body types are beautiful. Ronda Rousey remains the perfect example that women can be strong and sexy. That they can be tough and attractive. Her decision to correct her Instagram post to show every inch of her bicep had nothing to do with the fact that she's getting back in the ring soon and that she looks like a feeble little damsel in the original picture. It has everything to do with her being an exemplar for every self conscious female in America. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but Ronda Rousey just wants to make sure the world is beholding her true self. It's absolutely appalling to her that people would see her body altered in any way, shape, or form. That's why we should all totally wait until Ronda posts the non-airbrushed pictures of herself from her 'Sports Illustrated' spread before we open the 'Swimsuit Issue' and realize the grave injustice that she has been done.
