1000-lb Best Friends star Vanessa Cross has vowed to show off her body confidence after she proudly paraded her curves in a teeny string bikini.
The reality star rose to fame on TLC’s 1000-lb Best Friends, which follows a group of pals in their quest to shed weight and one clip of the women out shopping has left fans inspired.
In a throwback video posted by TLC on Instagram, Vanessa could be seen wearing a pair of black shorts and black shoes with a teeny zebra print bikini over the top.

She wore her long blonde hair pulled back from her face as she showed off her assets to the camera.
Vanessa walked out of the changing room and adjusted herself while her pal looked on in amazement.
Co-star Meghan, who wore a multicoloured dress, matching earrings and headband, was clearly shocked and her jaw hit the floor as she asked Vanessa whether “she was going to wear this”.
Vanessa was adamant that she “wanted to show this off” and Meghan gave her verdict.
She told her pal: “You kind of surprised me there. I’ve just never seen that big before! I mean, not in a bad way. I’ve just never seen that in the store that big. I mean, I’ve been that big. I mean – never mind.”
The official TLC Instagram account asked fans to “tag their shopping buddy in the comments” but viewers were more interested in praising Vanessa for her purchase and obvious body confidence.
One wrote: “Love it! Keep wearing what your heart desires,” with a row of heart eyed emojis.
Another added: “Absolutely love her confidence, you go girl,” with red heart emojis.
A third also said: “She has the best personality out of all of them!”
Others gathered to compliment Vanessa’s “love for herself”, that they were “jealous of her confidence” and told her “you go, girl”.
One concerned viewer even noted that it was a “good thing” she had moved out of her sister’s house as she “constantly fed her crap” which “seemed like it was on purpose” so that Vanessa wouldn’t lose any weight.
