Tracy Hinson's job is to report the weather forecast for the KSDK TV station in St. Louis, Missouri. But when one viewer wrote in to complain, it had nothing to do with Tracy's reporting skills. Instead, the purpose of this feedback was to body-shame the meteorologist.

“Do you ever watch yourself giving the weather report?" someone named Mary wrote. "Seems that you need a girdle for the stomach overhang which shortens the front of your dresses!"

The bully went on to say, "Today was not the first time I have noticed this. Maybe you should wear a top that covers the bulge in your stomach."

Mary's words could easily be very upsetting. But our true worth comes from God, not this world. And thankfully, Tracy seems to have a good grasp of that fact.

So, she responded to the blatant body-shaming in the best way possible!

“Dear Mary, yes I do watch my air checks,” Tracy Hinson of KSDK replied. "NO I will not be strapping myself into a girdle because you don’t like my belly. I like pasta, bread and cheese too much to obsess over my weight. I like my body and that’s all that really matters."
