While it's difficult to look at Biles and imagine someone offering up anything other than admiration for the athletic physique that helped her win four gold medals in Rio over the summer, some on social media inexplicably responded to recent pics she shared with words like "fat" and "ugly."

Well, she has some words for them, too.

"You all can judge my body all you want, but at the end of the day it's MY body," she wrote in response to the insults. "I love it & I'm comfortable in my skin."
