"And they said I wasn't an editorial girl..," she captioned it. "Sneak peek from my @fashionunfiltered story releasing Mon! #slay #beautybeyondsize."
Ever since the Nebraska native landed a spot on the cover of Sports Illustrated's 2016 Swimsuit Issue, Graham has been extremely vocal about her past struggles with body issues, her distaste for the term "plus-size" and the disappointing modeling agents who once doubted her potential.
"I was told, 'You'll never be an editorial model and you'll never be on the pages of any magazine,'" she told The Daily Beast back in February. "And the first year that I was signed with IMG I was on five different covers and had my own TED Talk. It's really shaped the industry and I feel like the things that I've been saying, and watching the industry change, has been such a testament to my work."

Graham echoed those sentiments during an exclusive sit-down interview with ET in May.
"I think I was about 18 years old, and I already had an agent tell me that I needed to lose weight, I had clients tell me I needed to lose weight," Graham, now 29, explained. "I still didn't have that gumption to lose weight for them. It was truly, it came from within. It was, 'Are you healthy? Are you happy? Is this a woman you want to hang out with?' And all those answers were no."

"So in that moment, I had to start doing my affirmations," she continued. "I started going to the gym more, I started changing my eating habits, and all of a sudden, it all came together and I am still just as curvy and cute and sexy as I was then. It is just my mind has changed."
