Max Collins opens up about her insecurity: 'My arms have always bothered me'
Max Collins said she's always been insecure of her arms.
In Vicki Belo's recent vlog, the Kapuso actress said even though she works out regularly, she finds it hard to lose weight in her arm area.
"My arms have always bothered me," Max said.
“I’ve been doing a lot of exercises just to tone it pero naiiwan pa rin ‘yung fat [sa arms] eh,” she added.
Max also said she never saw the hard work she puts into toning her arms despite her best effort. Sometimes she would even edit her photos to make her arms look slender.
“Binabawasan ko siya, and then I’m like, hanggang kelan ko ba to gagawin?” she said.
"I was really insecure about my weight [and] my arms. When you have slender arms kasi, you look more payat," she added.
In the interview, Max revealed having undergone liposuction to achieve her dream arms and to feel more confident in her work as an actress.
"I also need to do it also for work because I can't not eat, I can't extremely diet," she said. "Work-wise, I really need to do it just to feel more confident."
“Ito talaga ‘yung insecurity ko, so when people say na’ ang payat mo na,’ I wouldnt believe them because ito talaga yung nakikita ko eh,” she added.
Max said she believed she could look better, so she decided to do liposuction, and she's not ashamed about it.
"People will always say na 'it's enough' or 'ang ganda mo na,' but if you don't feel that way, then it shows," she said.
"After getting lipo, I feel more confident," she added. "I feel like a better version of myself, and it's something that I've always been chasing."
Max currently stars as Elize in the action-comedy sitcom "Walang Matigas Na Pulis Sa Matinik Na Misis," alongside Beauty Gonzalez and Sen. Bong Revilla.
Max is co-parenting her son Skye with her former partner Pancho Magno. Earlier this month, they celebrated Skye's birthday together with a safari-themed birthday party.
