Leah Messer is calling out body shamers.

After a bikini photo she posted over the weekend led some commenters to accuse the Teen Mom 2 star of being too skinny, Messer spoke out on Tuesday, saying that too much scrutiny is put on women's bodies.

"There is much more to women than our bodies," the 24-year-old reality star said in a statement to Refinery 29. "Yet many women seem to continually judge others."

"There are many more important issues going on in the world today than whether or not I had enough to eat for breakfast," Messer added. "(Side note: I had plenty.)"

Messer concluded the statement calling for people to "stop with the shaming, start supporting one another, and focus on what really matters."

"I am in a beautiful place in my life raising three wonderful, kind, loving and confident little girls," Messer said. "The last thing I would want for them is to feel that they, too, could be ridiculed for their bodies."

In April, Messer and her Teen Mom 2 co-star, Kailyn Lowry, opened up on Steve Harvey about the pressure of dealing with online comments.

"I honestly put my life out there to be a positive influence ... It's so painful when people are judgmental," Messer shared at the time. "I've just stopped allowing it to affect me."

"If we post one picture on Instagram, we might cause World War III," Lowry added. "It’s hard because I think people forget when they’re watching the show that we’re actually human beings with feelings."
