This entire video is a great rebuttal to the "fat and happy" motto. Being obese is miserable, and physically painful and mentally exhausting. People who say it's okay to be fat are cruel.

[@Megdee83]

she is still b.sing, she is taking no responsibility for her overeating, just claiming it's all ailments...meanwhile a bottle of mountain dew sits on her bed

[@Gorlcaptain]

@@Megdee83of course. But there is a difference between happy & self loving, loving yourself enough to do hard things you need to do to live a full life. vs. excuses we give ourselves personally. Toxic positivity absolutely exists in the fat acceptance movement which we are all 100% sure her state of mind has been affected by. There is alot of psychology there, and she should absolutely love herself to save her health, and life. It’s very hard being as big as her and no one wants those struggles for her. You can love yourself and body while also trying to change it for your health.

[@Whitebushido]

​@@Megdee83 I'm fat, have BED, and I'm happy. Doesn't mean I'm happy to be fat. I am working on changing myself. Prior to COVID I was at my lowest weight since middle school at 200.2 pounds and was so damn excited to hit Onederland. COVID hit and my stress relief(gym) went away and I gained 120 pounds from stress eating and lack of exercise. Being fat is stressful, every single day I think about how much easier some things in life would be if the weight were off. Every single day I see myself in the mirror and experience shame. I love myself, I love the work I've put in to my body(Hitting PRs in the gym even when I've lost 60 of those COVID pounds in the past year), I do not love my fat.

[@johannas.l.brushane2518]

Though I suspect that this fake crying (she have eye locking and often look upward sideway a lot just like those who have killed their kids and wail in front of media asking for help to find them) is a thing to try to gather pity and compassion from the fat acceptance crowd among her viewers.

[@teloxy6579]

"I'm not the problem" - that is a quite a statement, meaning no personal responsibility taken, let's blame this and that. She does't seem genuine. "I am going to get shredded" - another line that irks me.

[@Andrew_O]

10:00 "Changing my diet which I've already done". Yeah, we never get to see that part in her videos. This is the one thing she NEVER does. It's always about talking about everything except the elephant in the room: food. In the end we know she is not honest on that front at all and the rest may as well be performative. Trying to correct the liepdema surgically while she never fixed teh core obesity issue underneath it which is what exacerbates the actual condition doesn't bode well for the future outcome....

[@ElderMillenial-x7b]

She's never changed her food. That's why she doesn't show it. I think she's panicking now, but unless she deals with the main issue, nothing will change. She's wildly different than she was years ago. I feel sorry for her.

@@kimicope_ There is no magic condition that causes mass to collect on a body out of nowhere. The body needs fuel and it's only excess that can be stored. All any of these condition can do is change how much is usable, affect hunger levels, etc. In the end it's till always CICO. It's the "out" part that is harder for us to control, but the "in"? Yeah, that's 100% us.

[@protectedlands2869]

I think one of the hardest battles in life is trying to decide when to go easy on yourself and when it is time to tell yourself the hard truth and push to be better. The struggle is truly accepting yourself for who you are without being afraid to move forward and continue changing.

Anna WALKED that 5k. No shade at walking. Honesty is what matters.

[@spOOkytimes]

Agreed. She got herself there AND finished the race. She should be celebrating that instead of lying. Nobody expects or wants her to run at her weight.

[@calendarpage]

@@spOOkytimes It would have been great if she owned up and said that at this point, all she can do is walk the race, and that's fine. Encourage others to walk. If they get to the point they can run, that's fine, too, but not necessary. Not everyone is going to be, or should be, a runner. But most people can walk. Being honest would have truly influenced people, instead of lying - which was transparent to everyone.

[@SkyeMelodyy]

@starcandyx Oh I get that. I meant that as being an influencer creates another caveat of issues. Had she not had a platform and following and was just a regular civilian, I'm sure she would have dealt with her health issues in a different matter. Taking the public platform that she does, doing things to better her health could ruin her income. It's just sticky making your body a reliant of income.

[@Daydream355]

With that fake ass crying I think she just wants more engagement.

[@johannas.l.brushane2518]

Yes, I think the fake cry was also to try to soothe potential anger from the part of her viewers who are with fat acceptance and hates. Part of her is probably with them as well since she is so attached to her food, whether her overeating is a BED or just generally overacting of other emotional issues she avoid touching on and fixing. I have heard saying that these weighloss drugs she was on have potential to help curing alcoholics, perhaps that is a factor to why she feels pain now going off the wegovy? Wegovy in itself have no anaesthetic agent as what I have heard, but if some doctors who call the efficient component a signals substance comparable to serotonin (see YT channel (Idaho Bariatric & Metabolic Institute) and not a hormone it could make sense if she experience a feeling of more pain coming off.

[@MelaninCosplay]

It isnt talked about enough that fixing your mental health is the first step to losing weight. I always felt like losing weight was impossible until i got on the right medications for my ocd and adhd. Now its so much easier. Im not talking about weight loss as a side effect, i mean the act of counting calories and keeping a deficit is so much easier. I can form habits and change my behaviors like i never could before. Sometimes i catch myself feeling bad that i didnt lose weight sooner but i have to remember that its only easy now because i already did the hard part. I finally admitted to my mental health issues and how bad they were (i couldnt work or function normally for a long time) and did the scary thing that is getting help. I weighed 306 on april 16th and im down to 284 today. My goal is 180 by the end of next summer

[@mcarter99]

To add i am very lucky to have found a combination of medications that work so well. I know that is often not the case and it can take awhile

[@pennyproud1621]

Your mental health gets fixed through the weight loss. Exercise is medicine even just plain walk are literally king when it comes to exercise.

[@mcarter99]

@pennyproud1621 going on a walk won't fix my ocd. Maybe your idea of bad mental health is feeling down sometimes, but my brain yells at me to rip the skin off my hands and the only way i can get it to stop is if I use this one specific lotion. The wrong lotion will make it worse. For 9 months I washed my trash and stored it in a closet because I was so paranoid that something bad would happen if someone saw me taking it out. Anything I had to take out I did in the middle of the night. It makes no sense, ocd doesnt follow logic and cant be fixed with logic. I lived in the city then and walked everywhere, yet I was the worst I've ever been.

It’s a leap of faith in her mind but I think people would respect her more for trying to undo the damage she has done to herself than watching her use delusion to crash and burn.

[@tjp2109]

I have lipedema combo with lymphedema. I lost 250 lbs with purely a cal deficit and less processed foods. It's taken 8 yrs. If anyone understands her, I do. My issue is she's lying about why she's gained it back and blaming it purely on the disease. She's claiming she's gained back that weight by eating 1800 cal per day. At her weight, she'd be losing at that cal per day. She's binging processed foods and blaming the condition. Great for her in getting surgery, but like bariatric, it won't solve all of the condition. Eating low processed, HQ foods and staying away from fast food will help her most. I predict she'll have surgery and continue to gain weight because of her eating poor food choices

[@johannas.l.brushane2518]

Those who criticise her for striving for weight loss is probably the fat acceptance people, what others find annoying is that she does not acknowledge that her own actions have substantially contributed to her condition. Genetics may load the gun but action pull the trigger. She, or Jordan Underwood would not have gone to stage 4 lipodema without getting diagnosed before that if it could not have hidden in their incredibly large bodies! I became pre-diabetic and was not even at a BMI of 30 so perhaps I have genes that have me more difficult to metabolise carbs? Or Lachlan Eranshaw, a young, very lean triathlete who got type 2 diabetes, probably because by being on the high carb culture in endurance sports, so genetics may play a part and a huge part of it is still the things the person have done to get there. Lachlan have a YT channel and he have left the video on how he ate before he was diagnosed, plus he have added how he changed to a low carb diet. So she sit there and fake cry that the condition is the problem and not her while she have a Starbucks mug and a Mountain dew can visible in the background.... She is gaslighting herself.

[@johannas.l.brushane2518]

​@@tjp2109Yes, the pain is not from quitting wegovy, she probably have started to eat more if her appetite increased and perhaps unhealthy food that retain water and is inflammatory. And that she seem to doctor shop in hope that they will say what she want to hear. What I would worry is if she have been honest and upfront with the surgeon who will perform the procedure, Kayne West's mom was denied liposuction by a couple of doctors when they were informed about cardiovascular disease in her family. So she did not inform the surgeon who eventually did the procedure, and she passed after a couple of days with aftercare to be helped by incompetent friends and relatives who blamed the doctor, a skilled surgeon who was lied to by a conceited obese woman!

Maybe if she is brutally honest with herself alone without caring about being an influencer or what anyone thinks, and she shares that with her medical team, she will discover why things have not worked out for her. Caring about what literally virtual strangers think about her is the worst thing she can do to herself.

I have a friend who has lipedema. Believe me, it is painful! She was always cheerful, kind to everyone, started a program for people with disabilities. An absolutely awesome program. Always smiling, you could see her pain. She did walk with a cane, then to a walker, then wheelchair. Then had surgery and is now back to using a walker. Throughout all of this, she had a job and still managed her program. Please don't judge Anna, no one knows anyone else's health journey.

🎉LOVE THIS Channel. I have just found it 👏👏👏🎊 I am fat. I have lost 99lbs so far this year. I just got real with myself. I know what was going in my mouth was killing me. I was the only one that can change things. I started OMAD 23 and 1 intermittent fasting. I eat fresh veggies, meats, eggs, cottage cheese, fruit. Cut out carbs for the most. Basically I have gone from bingeing, eating chocolate, ice cream, chips , pizza, cakes, fries etc. I lost the simple fresh flavours now. No cravings, no bingeing. I have so much more energy. Moving is so much easier. I am going to lose another 100lbs over the next year. I love Dr Now's, 'Scales don't lie, people do' lol

"I hope videos like this help other people." Unfortunately, I'm not sure I believe that. It feels a bit like damage control after not being open and honest all along. Obviously Anna doesn't owe anyone anything, but at the same time, she put herself out there in a very public way. She can't expect people not to have questions or to push back when things seem off. This feels a bit calculated - maybe an attempt to regain some credibility and possibly boost her bottom line. I'm really struggling to believe that this is all of a sudden about helping other people. I hope it is, but I have doubts.

Hey, John! In case you're interested, there are two smaller creators (Tiny Blue Anthropologist & TheCynicalDude) that talk about Anna's platform being based off of her sponsorships. Tiny Blue Anthropologist actually addresses the fact that Anna was spansored by the medical institute where she got the ALT surgery for her lipodema. Hence, she wouldn't have gotten the surgery if not for her sponsorship. This also happened for wygovee (or however the medication is written, the point is she was sponsored by the company the moment she started taking it), the 5k where she was sponsored by run labs and MANY other things that she does on her platforms.

[@amayalaurenb]

23 here and suffer from chronic and frequent moderate to severe pain… and I honestly really feel for this girl. I don’t really know much about her history, but I do know a lot about being in constant pain. I’ve been diagnosed with fibromyalgia for almost a year now… but I have had pain since I was 16 years old. This past week it has been unbearable to the point that I literally don’t know what to do and my doctors don’t get back to me. Anyway, I just wanted to offer my perspective… at least for me, when you’re in constant pain like that, it’s really hard to mention it. I don’t know if it would be different having a platform, or it would probably be more so difficult I’d imagine. When you tell people you’re in pain, nobody knows how to deal with you. A lot of people aren’t empathetic in the slightest, which is fine, but then you get those who don’t believe you or say it’s not that bad at, etc. The best response I usually get is like and I’m sorry or my sister really empathizes with me, at some point you just stop talking about it because it’s constant. You just assume nobody wants to hear it or nobody cares. But that’s just me lol. 💗

However, her feelings are valid and maybe if she doesn't want to handle the criticism she should step back from a public life.

[@opia7693]

I actually disagree with the last statement mainly because Ana is really just reaping what she's sown. Her health conditions were never her fault but always her responsibility. When I first came upon her content (over 10 years at this point) people were already telling her being as big as she was was not good, would catch up to her, and that glorifying obesity was not the way to go. She built a brand around being big and fatshamed but living defiantly and enjoying life in spite of it and has only gotten bigger in both senses of the word. Her actual issue is one of her own making: her audience looks to her for that continued defiance to help them with their own delusions and that her income is directly tied to it. In the pursuit of that she has shown her true colours and is dishonest with her audience and kind of nasty when she's called out on it. Her problem is not just her weight but are all somehow tied to it. I do truly wish her success on this journey. At some point I hope she can finish with an honest reflection for her audience as well. Perhaps they can avoid her current fate.

Guidelines for her conditions are very clear: anti-inflammatory and/or low carb diet, compression wraps, and other interventions before surgery. Look, you can be honest and say "hey, I have this disease and I'm not perfect", but do not pretend that you have no control. Unfortunately, some of us (including myself) have to be stricter with our diets to be healthy, it sucks, but that's what it is.

The main issues I see with people who "can't lose weight" is that they can't estimate amounts of food but refuse to measure and that they tend to think things like "but I didn't eat a snack, I just had a few chocolate chips while I was baking" or "I just had iced tea, that's pretty much water" when they're actually drinking iced tea with lemonade and a few sugar packets.

I’ve been put on a Glp1 as my body isn’t losing post cancer treatments no matter what I eat/don’t eat and I am continuously getting injured when I attempt to increase activity. Because I need to have hernia surgery, I need to lose as much as possible as quickly as possible for the best outcome post surgery. My body has had extreme issues maintaining nutrients due to GI dumping occurring multiple times a week before using lots of supplements and vitamins due to my surgeries. One positive side effect of the Glp1’s is decreased inflammation so it makes sense that she is now having excessive pain due to inflammation returning even at being down 100 lbs as she still has a very significant amount to lose. Lymphedema fat is metabolically active and works diligently against the body losing weight as well. Based on the way her legs look, I expect that she’s also an advanced stage which is also incredibly difficult to manage without surgery. Having to get off of it for her surgery surprises me as I’ve been told to expect to be on it for 2 years even with having my expected hernia surgery and my surgeon is the one who told me specifically to get on it.

People will be vicious just because she's so big and that is clearly chipping away at her optimism. People in the comments here are doing it instead of saying, "Wow. This lady's in pain and putting herself out there. Maybe I should just hope for the best and say something supportive." Whether you like her or not, she's owning up to hiding things NOW.

It’s so easy to eat more calories than you think. I was surprised at how much more I was eating than I thought when I started logging my consumption.

I dont like her, but I dont want to shame anyone for trying to take care of themself. I understand why its hard for her, too come clean about taking weight loss drugs. I hate that people are getting mad, about what you do too YOUR body. Its not their body. Please take care of yourself people.

it's Novo Nordisk, not Norvo. but anyway, i thought her being in the ad was basically an indirect acknowledgement that she was using weight loss medication at that point.

Besides all her shenanigans I really hope Anna succeeds. She’s trying to be more active, but she also needs help managing her overeating. I think she would benefit from a therapist. There’s to be some psychological issues that let her binge. After all, she’s strong for being that big!
