It can be difficult to avoid reading comments on social media, but Biles says that she has learned to do so.  "I also don't look at comments or anything just because I'm grateful and I love everything about myself," she said to POPSugar. "I'm proud of who I am inside and out. That's definitely helped me not think about it."
