The actress mentioned that she had been apprehensive about how people would look upon her changed weight, and felt that she would run the risk of unnecessary criticism and opinions. Dolly added:
“I just happened to think about how I was avoiding a few of people just because I felt that this new weight or my new look will not invite great things from them or they will not be welcoming it maybe, wonder how safe space in the scenario is so important, it’s only a few people in your life that really let you be and enjoy and don’t make everything about how you look and your weight and everything else so I felt sad”.
