I used to be 365lbs...a truly big girl. I would get so mad at doctors for blaming all of my issues on my weight, right down to catching a lot of colds every year. I always thought they were just being lazy. Turns out that they were right! When I lost the weight, my reproductive system went from being so sporadic to the point that I was told that I was going through early menopause in my 30s to being able to set my calendar by my periods when I am now in my 40s. I went from bronchitis and multiple bad colds every year to maybe 1 sniffles. I was starting to have issues with my bladder, and the weight loss fixed that. I was heading to diabetes quickly, and my sugar numbers are fantastic now. The doctors aren't there to make you feel better mentally...that's your job...they are there to fix your body, and your body's biggest problem is that you are suffocating all of your organs with all of the FAT. Stop trying to silence the people telling you that you need to lose weight...start listening to those voices, but make your internal voice even louder, and have that voice tell you to put down that cake, drop the body fat, and pick up a set of weights.

I remember when I first started losing weight and a cashier who saw me frequently noticed and said, "I'm not sure if I can say this, but you're looking good! You've lost weight, haven't you?" and I smiled and said that yes, I'd lost quite a bit and was still working on it. She looked so relieved that I wasn't offended and I'm still baffled as to how a sincere *compliment* of any kind can be offensive!?

[@elfdogre2181]

I think many overweight people are inwardly really down on themselves for being overweight, so any compliment from someone seems like an insult to them. My younger sister has this problem. I complimented her after seeing her for the first time in a few weeks as she had been on vacation to Europe. What I had said was, "you look happy." I then had to endure her tirade about how dare I comment on her weight, at the end of which I replied, "I hadn't, but ok" and walked out the door.

A few pounds overweight and you could die of loneliness.... surrounded by those same people. I'm always tempted to tell them "I'm just as unpleasant as I always was, condensed". The cashier though, sounds like a casual acquaintance who was happy for you.

[@sarochiel]

@@marym922 Casual acquaintance, yes. And I'd lost 80lbs. 😁 Blimey, I know what you mean though. There are people I've known (to see, but not to talk to) who are friends of friends etc, and they haven't said anything to me since I've known them, and then they come up to me telling me I look "good" or "healthy" and never say anything again. Why even bother, mate? Just keep ignoring me. 😂 (I'm an introvert, so honestly just keep ignoring me)

[@jb6712]

The stupidity behind anyone being offended by a compliment is, from what I've read on various sites, is that "No one should be complimenting anyone's appearance because you have no idea what they've been through, or are going through, and even though you think you're being kind, you're not." If someone I see only occasionally notices my weight loss (a work in progress right now) and says something nice about it, you can know that I'll be climbing up onto the nearest roof and shouting my joy from up there (virtually, of course, not literally)!! It would make me super happy that anyone would notice I've been working hard to get healthier and lighter!

[@ghostwriter4565]

Unfortunately, as much as I understand that being overweight is a genuine health problem that desperately needs to be addressed, I also think there are some doctors out there who make people feel very small because they are overweight. I remember a doctor visit from about 12-15 yrs ago (during a time when I was about 10lbs overweight) and when the doctor came in he looked down at my chart where the weight was listed, back up at me, then back at the chart. He then proceeded to tell me “Wow, I was expecting a massive morbidly obese person, but you actually look healthy at that weight.” He then proceeded to tell me what diet and exercise he would have prescribed to me if I wasn’t from dense-boned heavily muscled stock that makes me 20-30lbs heavier than other fit people even when I have 0 fat on my body. I was there for a sinus infection and walked out feeling shamed for my genetic line.

[@rfq1264]

​@@ghostwriter4565 huh, if you're 20-30lbs more than considered fit people in your height, and its not because of fat Also considering the bone density don't affect significant role in body weight, then you're must be a very muscular person.

You easily lose weight by getting brown fat. Kids were born with brown fat. Brown fat makes lose weight faster. But people eat a lot of sugar, salt, alcohol, and smoke. these things cause toxins. The toxins cause the brown fat to disappear. the brown fat turns to white fat. You can get back the beige fat. Beige fat also helps to lose weight but a little slower than brown fat but it works. You have to eat vegetables, fruits, and healthy stuff to get brown fat. Also showering for 5 minutes in cold water or wearing less warm sweaters helps to increase the beige fat. Also drinking a herbal tea like green tea helps too.

You can be fat and beautiful, but what you can never be is fat and healthy.” I’m thankful he has the sense to see all of that and not get offended because he was told he had to make changes in his lifestyle to get healthier.

You easily lose weight by getting brown fat. Kids were born with brown fat. Brown fat makes lose weight faster. But people eat a lot of sugar, salt, alcohol, and smoke. these things cause toxins. The toxins cause the brown fat to disappear. the brown fat turns to white fat. You can get back the beige fat. Beige fat also helps to lose weight but a little slower than brown fat but it works. You have to eat vegetables, fruits, and healthy stuff to get brown fat. Also showering for 5 minutes in cold water or wearing less warm sweaters helps to increase the beige fat. Also drinking a herbal tea like green tea helps too.

Doctors aren’t there to be your friend. They are there to be an advocate for your health, oftentimes in spite of the patient’s insistence on doing things counter to their good health. And honestly it’s mainly folks who are dead set on not caring about their weight who get offended when it’s brought up. People trying to better themselves tend to want to bring it up to measure how they are progressing, to hear the doctor encourage their good decisions and provide validation that the tough choices have begun to produce better health outcomes for them. The doctor is there to be your partner in achieving the healthiest version of yourself that you can manage. That means getting the harsh reality check we often need at times to shape up.

Another instance, I was having fertility issues and went to see a doctor, who told me I shouldn't want to get pregnant being "as big as I was," and refused to help me until I lost 50lbs. I think if you go into the doctor's, the doctor's job is to judge you. There are some doctors who are going to shame you for your weight and others who just won't say it out loud. 😅 It is what it is.

Tbf being fat does affect fertility

[@mrsadlower]

@@strawberryynoodlesauce It very much does. When you are obese, you have an excess of fat; therefore, you have an excess of fat cells. Fat cells produce estrogen. High estrogen levels can affect ovulation, ovarian cysts, endometrial lining overproduction, and uterine polyps. It throws off your hormones. But it's not always the sole reason for infertility. And a doctor should be running tests first in order to determine what needs to happen. Turns out, I had cysts on my ovaries, closed fallopian tubes, and adenomyoma in the lining of my uterus. My weight wasn't going to change my ability to get pregnant.

My only fat phobia is to never become fat. It keeps me eating right and exercising. Encounters with the obese only motivates me more, while privately hoping they'll eventually resolve to take control of their lives too.

I've said it once and I'll say it again: I watched my mom struggle with her weight every single day and saw the mental and health problems she had. It scares me to think I was headed in that direction. Now I'm taking my health into my own hands by trying to walk as often as I can and eating healthier meals while telling myself a treat is just a treat and not a meal replacement. I vowed never to be heavy like my mom had been but I'm also not the skinniest either. Doing it nice and slow as it should be.

[@supernova11711]

Genetics is a huge component but can also be helpful. My mother and aunts on both sides of the family are pudgy. Not fat but still overweight. I knew from a young age that my weight was going to be a lifelong struggle if I didn’t want to turn out the same so taught myself to diet when I was young. I have a maximum I allow myself to get (5 lbs overweight on the BMI) and once I reach it I lose 10 lbs then the cycle slowly repeats. The trick is to not let it get so out of hand that you give up. Best of luck to you. You can do it if you want to badly enough. Limiting food intake really sucks for at least the first two weeks but after that your body adjusts and it gets much easier.

"When you go to the doctor, bur want affirmation instead of treatment" is something, that isn't only applicable in some of these cases.

Bruh, this society is so weak. Get over yourself. If you’re overweight you’re not healthy. Over consumption literally takes years off your life, read a little. Go to college. Pick up a book.

I’m a veterinary nurse. When people bring their dogs and cats in for a general exam, one of the things we are trained to do is examine the patient’s weight. We have a body condition scale and we rate them from 1-9 and 4 being the ideal. It’s amazing how many over weight pets are out there. I would estimate that at least 50% if not more are over weight. And when I tell the owner that their cat or dog needs a diet a lot of them get mad lol like hello I’m just trying to keep your pet happy and healthy for as long as I can. I’m pretty sure you don’t want them to die years earlier than they should or get diabetes so then you’ll have to give insulin every day. I’m not here to offend your dog, I’m here to keep them healthy. People are ridiculous. 😂

1:36 there is a lot of hypocrisy here , both clips are inappropriate , the difference is the more attractive thinner girl will pull in more viewers and people to the platform , which in a companies eyes is acceptable as its pulling in money , when it comes down to money people look the other way , just look at twitch and other platforms that are now practically digital pimps promoting e-girls to rake in the money

To the woman who talked about body dismorphia at 8:56, what about all the anorexic and bulimic people who are hurting themselves because they see themselves as weighing 300lbs when in reality they weigh 90lbs.....that's a very real problem. So what, should we just walk up to them and tell them to get over it? This could deepen their problem and could cause more issues. I'm so stunned by this woman's words and overall thought process.

[@kuroihana9360]

Absolutely correct. She wants to speak for marginalized people while also stomping on issues of other marginalized people. Like every other topic being shoved down everyone’s throats, you can’t get respect if you aren’t willing to give it.

[@Archeides]

Yeah, it's hilariously ironic how some of these "freedom fighters" who love to just get hardcore on their beliefs towards others will just talk about how marginalized and targeted one group is, while blatantly targeting the opposite side of the spectrum... like there's not more than one group of people having issues. For some reason, so many people now have the inability to grasp that not everything in the world exists out of some massive public malice.
