This vid was a wake up call on this movement. Thanks for forcing us to face the reality of this situation- false positivity is no way to live! The media is feeding us the wrong message about this- they should be educating the masses on the vegan message, but they’re scared of losing $$$. Go FRUIT yourself!!! 💛

Curvy doesn’t necessarily mean large. Curvy could be referencing a body’s natural shape like some people have bigger hips regardless of how lean they become

[@marissabennett422]

Exactly. I’ve got big hips, boobs, and butt that all appeared during puberty like they don’t go away

[@1975coucou]

yeah that’s me i have a curvy body (i’m not fat. i just have a small waist and larger hips) bc my mom has it and it’s genetics. i also wanted to point out i can’t get a thigh gap bc of my bone structure.

[@peanutbutterprincess123]

Yes, even when I was 250 pounds I was still an A cup. I’d say I was shaped more like an inverted triangle... once I lost the weight I became ‘curvier’. Or as curvy as you can be with an A cup. All that matters to me is that I’m healthy, and when you feel good on the inside it shines through :)

[@xxzzz7467]

Marissa Bennett please don’t listen to her you have a good healthy body

[@NoOneHere2Day]

Curvy and fat are 2 different thing. Fat women have hijacked the word curvy instead of calling themselves fat or obese.

[@raemiller6035]

Body positivity is important TO ME because while I'm working towards being a healthy weight...I am 300 pounds right now. That is my reality. That was because of my decisions and I totally own up to that. I am now vegan and guess what! Still overweight. But I don't want to be accepted by society ONLY when I've reached a healthy weight. That will take A LONG TIME YET. No one is lesser than because they are fatter. We are not disgusting and the scourge of society- like some people would honestly lead you to believe. That's what body positivity means to me! It means we're all equal no matter how much or little fat we have. Judge people by their ACTIONS REGARDING VEGANISM, sure, but not their weight! And now that I've accepted the NOW of my body I can make changes :) but it didn't come about by not being positive!!

[@gwenmaisybug3864]

What you're saying is completely true. Your weight does not define your worth. But like the other reply says, most of the girls are promoting it in a way that leads you to believe it's okay to be morbidly obese. Which obviously, it's not.

[@Jordan-bo4nv]

Being positive and respecting your body is not the same as accepting being overweight. Respect your body but don’t pretend it’s ok or healthy and definitely don’t promote your size to others

I didn't even begin to want to lose weight UNTIL I loved myself, and thought I was beautiful. Of course we want to be healthy, and live a long beautiful life, but when you get to a point where you hate every part of yourself, you dont WANT to make the effort to change it.

I keep hearing this, but for me I lost weight because I hated myself and my body. I was bullied so badly that I was driven into depression, and I started to take action. Sure I hated myself but I thought if I changed something about myself that everyone made fun of, it would stop. It worked in the end for me, I lost 85 lbs and am a healthy weight, and I'm starting to slowly like parts of myself but I still don't love myself considering all the loose skin and stretch marks. BUT It's a lot better than it used to be.

[@jopossum568]

As someone recovering from an eatingdisorder that almost killed me, I don't like this fat acceptance movement. Body positivity is great, always love your body no matter what, but to me loving yourself means caring and fighting for yourself. Back then I decided to love myself enough to accept the pain and struggle that came with changing my ways, so that I wont die an early, painful death. Its not about beauty, being pretty wont give you shit. Fight for your health because you only have this one life, dont waste it feeling like crap or being trapped in a hospital bed.

[@zoem.275]

I feel like body positivity is loving your body and having that connection to take care of it, for example if you are overweight love your body enough to want to take care of it and feed it with good food.

[@Raliviel]

This could be written by me. I am 32 too, hated myself since I was 14 and gained weight then - I actually wanted to loose some weight (only a few pounds, was already at a healthy weight...), but it got me into the cycle of strong calorie restriction and eating disorders. It took me a few years to get to where I am now. I finally love myself and accept myself how I am. But now I wanna show it too, that I love myself, by loosing weight and getting a fit and healthy body with a whole plant foods diet ♥. Also: The change to love myself & getting rid of my eating disorders was strongly inspired by Freelee. What she said changed my whole mindset. (I had many more issues to deal with that's why it took me a few years to get to this point where I am now starting with my journey to get fit & healthy.)

[@aubs965]

I think the message she is trying to get across is that you can love and respect yourself and your body while also being healthy. You cant have true self love if you are slowly killing yourself through the foods you eat. Self love is caring for your body and reducing the risks for as many diseases, ailments and cancers as possible. You should lvoe the process, but you cant truly love yourself if you dont even have enough self respect to treat your body as a temple and have high standards for what goes in your body. Self love is wanting your body to thrive

[@aubs965]

@@carleighe9584 i think she partially wants to help the animals but the way she talks to everyone she makes videos on is condenscending. how can i get the same message across as her without insulting and being rude to the person? She almost only does videos on women, and then proceeds to dehumanize them instead of being firm, yet understanding. If she wants to turn people vegan, she needs to fix her delivery message. you can get the same message axross without offending people and making them spiteful to not want to listen to you. Some people will listen to freelee with her method, but not all or most. But if she took the insults out and the spite in her voice, but got the same facts across, she would be saving more animals by turning more people vegan.

16:00 "pain is the biggest motivator to change", actually numerous studies on Operant Conditioning show 'positive reinforcement' is more effective in producing long-lasting behaviour change than 'positive punishment' (positive meaning "the application of something undesirable"). Perhaps why individuals who avoid gaining weight report feeling miserable... Instead we should be driven by how good and healthy we will feel when following a healthy lifestyle.

[@sadieb27]

exactlyyy like you might lose weight because you hate your body but it would probably be in an unhealthy way and not last very long compared to if you love your body and want it to change forever

[@nathansykes0714]

Agreed! If you love your body that means you take care of it, with healthy diet and exercise. Not with the intention to lose weight. Leading a healthy lifestyle has so many benefits other than weight loss if that’s what you desire/need. Your hair skin and nails are healthy. You can do more fun physical activities without getting fatigued. HEALTH AND HAPPINESS should be the main goal! ❤️

[@alliechristensen513]

V Elizabeth she said a lot of hurtful stuff actually, not just specifically to Lauren. Also, an egg sandwich with cheese is a healthy option. Vegan or vegetarian is not the only way to eat healthy. Eat what makes you feel good and provides you with fuel and nutrition. Healthy eating is all about balance, moderation/portions, it’s nutritional benefits and fueling your body. And what works for someone doesn’t work for everyone.

[@alliechristensen513]

V Elizabeth are you a professional nutritionist or dietitian with a degree? Many pro nutritionists and dietitians would claim that sandwich to be healthy and nutritious. I’m going to follow and listen to professionals who are helping me reach a healthier state in a more sustainable way, but you are entitled to eat what you feel is healthy and sustainable to you just as a fat person is able to do the same. Most people who have reached obesity are trying to loose weight and get to a healthier state but people bullying them into it (especially without knowing that person and what they are/aren’t doing) doesn’t help them reach their goals and only further sinks them into unhealthy habits, horrible mental states and eating disorders.. It’s time for people to get their nose out of other people’s health unless they are reaching out for help. It’s not your place to “correct” them or tell them how to eat or live. It’s as simple as that. And that is what is wrong with this video. If none of you can understand that, then I think it’s a lost cause and it’s super sad.

And yes, healthy comes in a variety of sizes. Unless you’ve experienced it, you would not know.

[@SheffieldShuffle]

@@alliechristensen513 Well, I've definitely experienced it, and I definitely know I do not want to continue down this path. I'm clinically obese and trying desperately to climb my way out of the hole. If you are also obese, then you DO need to change. "It's fine to be fat" is the mantra of someone with the privilege of youth. Wait a few more years for your body to start breaking down. It happened to me, and it will happen to you too because you are not invincible. You can only abuse yourself for so long before your body begins to react. I hope you decide to change before you start having terrifying issues with your body.

Crissy Crisss you see, that’s what we’re talking about! 💕 👏🏻 I’m happy that you found something that worked for you and helped you, but you did it in your own way! Not everyone is the same or is motivated in the same way but self hatred is more often than not more hurtful than beneficial or motivating. We support everyone taking care of themselves. That’s what the movement is all about. But it’s not our place to tell someone how to live their life or that they need to loose weight or that they aren’t beautiful or that they don’t deserve respect because of their health or size.

Thank you for the brutal honesty and for keeping your followers informed. I was considered 'obese' a few years ago and losing weight was all I needed to do to improve my quality of life. My mobility has improved, my energy levels have increased and I'm no longer dealing with aches and pains that were abnormal to experience in my early 20's - as of today I am 29kg's lighter!

[@niaj5530]

I recently wrote on twitter that obesity isnt healthy, and oh boy was I ATTACKED, they haaaated me, people really don't want to hear the truth, so they became vicious towards me. One girl even said that banans are unhealthy and you shouldn't eat more than one a day! It's so hard to get through to people, I started to question what I believed because of what all of these people said, I'm so glad I've found this video because it's really solidified my belief that being obese is unhealthy.

[@authenticallykennedy1870]

“there is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society” - J. Krishnamurti i truly believe we are doing this world a disservice by not speaking more frequently about the obesity epidemic. especially in America where 71% of Americans or overweight or obese. i find it even more sad that there have been words created like “body shaming” & “fat shaming” that deflect from the root of the issue at hand. how do we help these people & future generations?

[@VardaoftheStars]

How can we help? Continue to impact the world in your way, and if that means promoting a healthy lifestyle and passing that down to the future generation. Educate those who listen, and accept those who won’t. Wouldn’t it be so great if one day health becomes the majority? I’m going to be a part of that!!

I truly and honestly hope that one day you will understand the profound injurious effects that words like this can have on people. These are the words that push those already struggling to their breaking point, and I don't believe that anyone should want to hurt others in that way. These are not the words that will inspire someone to change for the better, but instead make them feel like they couldn't if they tried. Your definition of health is not universal. The mental effects of self-loathing can be much more detrimental to one's health than their physical state of being. This burdensome feeling of shame over one's body is what these strong, lovely creators are trying to alleviate. Please, please try to understand who you are hurting and how you are hurting them. Don't allow yourself to be responsible for someone else's pain.

Body positivity was meant for people born with health conditions, those who developed diseases later, trauma survivors, cancer survivors, people with scars, burn victims... Things people can't help. Taking this movement and using it as an excuse is not okay. This is not supposed to be for people who make themselves sick. It's great to feel pretty and confident- if that is genuine, but people still need to take care of themselves and make choices to best support their physical health.

You‘re perfect the way u are and if you like yourself and if you‘re healthy then you go girl!

[@michaelcallaway6962]

Whatever you guys think about Freelee’s hardcore approach to nutrition, you can’t deny the fact that eating only nutritious/unprocessed food is the proper way to shed the pounds long term, greatly reduce the risk for disease and lead to a healthier lifestyle in general. This is because it’s the way humans are meant to be eating and yet most people have traded their natural diet for junk food. Reality check, “moderation” will never work and is simply an excuse to continue indulging in junk food. I personally don’t agree with eating only fruit but Freelee makes great points in regards to the body positivity bullshit. Anyways I’m pretty sure our ancestors ate mostly fruits, some vegetables, nuts and very minimal amounts of meat if they did eat meat at all. BTW most healthy diets fail because you’re not eating enough calories and/or getting the right balance of nutrients.

The fat acceptance movement is really harmful in my opinion. It serves as an excuse for overweight people to keep harming themselves. But if they are hell-bent on destroying their own body, I wish they would at least leave the animals out of their disordered eating, which almost none of them do... It's like they care so little about themselves, they don't care about much else anymore. Really sad.

I do feel a lot of compassion for overweight people though, even those who don't have medical issues usually have some mental issues that cause them to become obese. I still think glorifying obesity is the wrong way to go about this. I like Freelee's approach a lot more, telling those people that their health IS important, that they CAN change. I think many people in the fat acceptance movement have given up on themselves. And they need and deserve people who believe in them and not people who encourage their demise.

[@jae693]

blergh Yes! I agree with this but it’s the way you go about things too. Her tone comes off more harmful than helpful. This didn’t motivate me at all. Women should most definitely accept their bodies now & work on changing. That’s what I am doing currently. Forcing a vegan lifestyle isn’t the way either. I’ve tried that... it’s certain things I can not compromise in my life because I have vitamin defencies. My doctor does not recommend going vegan. However, I try my best to substitute as much as I can. If I’m being honest, I don’t desire to be a size 2. I’ve been on the heavier side my ENTIRE life. I do desire to be at a healthier weight. Sometimes being thin isn’t the answer... I don’t think it’s nobody’s place to tell someone the way should & shouldn’t live.

[@---ne9xp]

I am recovering from my eating disorder, I was underweight 6 months ago due too only eating fruit and vegetables. I am now proudly overweight and that weight gain I am proud of thanks to the body positivity movement. I’m still vegan (of course) because I love animals with all my heart!!! But, this isn’t it, If you love how you look and start to realise that beauty is a thing that changes and was created by this society to make people hate themselves for not being perfect, beauty is a social construct!

But like when you start eating well, it affects your brain positively and you’ll feel great, even if you’re not at your goal weight yet. I experienced this, sure I hated veggies and fruits for the first week, but your body will adjust and actually crave those healthy foods. Eating right foods clears the brain fog and decreases negative feelings/energy (it may not 100% get rid of it, but it dramatically improved my mental state). It also improves self discipline, which is important for life in general. Also eating shit food only gives you temporary happiness and feel “good” in that moment, it’s like a high.

If you're in that place where it's hard to see that right now, start feeding your brain with fruits and vegetables; because our nutrition affects our mind and body. Feel better

I don't believe in putting others down or insulting bodies, but this "body positivity" thing going on is causing so much harm to our species.

The truth shouldn't send people into throwing fits cause someone said being obese will kill you, because IT WILL.

The problem is that while you're in the process of losing the weight from being morbidly obese- are you not allowed to love yourself? Can you not wear nice clothes? Can you not be proud of your achievements? Can you not even exist on social media or at the gym because you're not perfect yet and people will harass you as if you aren't trying when you really are? The body positive movement can include fat people because while you are working on your health you deserve to feel like a person who has worth, you're allowed to love yourself at any size even if that size is not healthy. And loving yourself does not have to equal accepting all your flaws and not planning to change them. It really is just about tearing down the oppressive beauty standards of this consumerist world. For many many women, they have to love themselves and accept themselves BEFORE they will have the strength to change because the bullying and self hatred have caused them to just give up on themselves and eat trash.
