[@possiblepilotdeviation5791]

I've lost 30 pounds over the past four months with a proper diet and exercise. I feel fantastic. I still have 50 more pounds to go.

Its okay to love your body, but loving it also means take care of it, you are doing well!!

Amazing job!!!!! This is what people should do instead of promoting unhealthy lifestyles

Keep going! Lost 70 pounds during the pandemic, got my six pack back! I feel so much better, energy, confidence I catch my wife checking me out it’s great.

Awesome!!! Keep going

Fatphobia is just an excuse for laziness and lack of accountability.

ITS AN EXCUSE FOR A. LACK OF DISCIPLINE

Yea let’s just make being unhealthy normal and okay. Sike!!

I don't eat wheat flour sugar and cut out artificial sweeteners..Honestly it's changes my life. I have been obese and I hated itt. My joints hurt, I was breathless, felt mentally depressed, I was fatigued all the the time. Obesity should not be glamorized. It's miserable.

[@michiel1162]

just eat less. It can't be that difficult. Look for example at Rebel Wilson or Adele. those are princesses

[@party4keeps28]

And eat the right food.

[@MrAnt-sf2sk]

More accurately, burn more calories than you consume. It really doesn’t matter what food you eat. It just makes to complete the process simpler. You will gain weight if you eat healthy and don’t exercise.

[@lenaleitner2780]

Like you tell an alcoholic to drink less

Exactly.

Fatphobiaphobia is not good

These comments are from people who lack intellectual curiosity, who are terrified by seeing another side of things and react in anger and trying to humiliate in retaliation.

@Reign youtube deletes links automatically idk why

Wow! You missed the whole talk then, cuz it's all cited back to primary sources (timestamp 3:42). Must just be sources you don't like or believe. That's a YOU problem
