That model did botox and has a lot of makeup on, she wasn't born like that either. Doing botox needs to be addressed too in my opinion because it is destructive in many ways as well.

[@ratt57]

​@@GS-ju3sr Botox and makeup are not unhealthy and will not eventually kill her with serious heart or diabetes issues. Ignoring this issue only encourages young kids to stop becoming aware of how unhealthy and obese they're becoming until it's way beyond their control and it becomes almost impossible to lose that weight for the rest of their lives. It's very difficult to get rid of large amounts of weight when you've let it go too far and it can be with you for the rest of your life.

Her and people like her brings us awareness. It's better than them hiding and pretending to bot exist. And this discussion is also needed.

She can admit she's not healthy yet she can't take the responsibility she should for influencing millions of people to be not fat and unhealthy but extremely morbidly obese to the point that she's well over the suggested levels to be considered obese. It's not about being thin It's about being healthy and the sooner folks realize that the better their loves would be.

[@DaveDepilot-KFRG]

@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?

[@tomservo75]

You can be whatever weight you want. As someone formerly 300+ pounds whose lost 80 pounds over the past 10 years (some illnesses have "helped" with that too) I can say it's definitely worth it and look, I don't care what weight you are, but when you start glorifying and promoting it, especially to kids, that's where the problem is. What is it that these people don't get? We're not attacking you or your weight, we just disagree that it's something to "celebrate." I do think Piers went a little over the edge on this one to be quite honest.

@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?

[@MSBowen-pk6ww]

As someone who was actually bullied and singled out by my own aunt who would say things at family parties infront of people like "If you eat that you will get fat!" every time! Even when I had just gotten there and was eating the first bite. That is what I lived with for years she also told me that I was fat and ugly unlovable and that no man would ever want me! So to me that is fat shaming. The dif between telling someone they are unhealthy and that you are worried about them is dif than what my aunt did to me. So fat shaming is not the right word to use. I don't know how she thought she was gonna help me. She claimed years later she was trying to keep me from being like her in school! She caused me to become an emotional eater it was the only outlet before her bullying tactics I was not as into food. I was 90 lbs at 12 years old not fat at all and with a good appetite. Not too much food! Then my hormons hit and so did thyroid issues. I gained a little weight and then she started in on me. People need to understand that words have an affect on people even years later. I topped 300 lbs in October of last year. In December at the end of the month for a whole month I wa sick with the flu pretty much bedridden. I lost 34 lbs before I even knew it. God proved to me that I could lose weight. I kept taking out things that were bad like soda and candy and chips to start with. Added more and more to it. I have lost a total of 51 lbs! I'm going for a total of 99 lbs now.! I know I can do this with God's help! I feel so much better folks there is such a dif between the me in Oct and me now! I have hope and I have control over my own body I am no longer a victim of emotional eating. Just take care how you tell someone you love that they need to lose weight. Especially a teenager.

[@simrethdhingra4409]

There is a difference between acceptance and glorification, just as there is a line between stigmatisation and being honest about health.

[@DestinyPifer]

When I noticed myself getting fat and was told by my doctor that I was morbidly obese I immediately asked for advice. He suggested eating better and put me on Wegovey a weight loss injection you take once a week. Despite some nasty side effects I have gone on it because I want to do what I can to get healthy again.

[@timhaddrell4457]

[@galinageorgieva8554]

It is quite awesome, that you want to be healthy again, but you don't become morbidly obese so fast. How come you didn't notice it way before that, when you were becoming obese? What I mean is, we all have a psychological issue, which is the real reason for our health problems. I am pretty sure that if you work on it the excess weight will go away a lot easier.

[@DestinyPifer]

@@galinageorgieva8554 I knew I was fat the moment I saw vacation pictures from last year. I suffer from depression and I tend to eat too much because of it. I was also downing oreos like no tomorrow but then one day I looked in the mirror at my belly and butt and thought I have to do something. I had no idea it had gotten this much out of control. So I went to my doctor for help.

[@galinageorgieva8554]

@@DestinyPifer I meant the real psychological reason/s for all of it -depression, overeating, maybe more. It might be very, very deep. I just found out mine(literally today. I had other theories, but turns out I was wrong). It was the cause of my chronic health problems, anxiety, etc and am starting to work on it. I suggest Alex Loyd's codes or whatever resonates with you, something that will really deal with the core problem and not just with the symptoms. BTW, I also get depression, when I eat wheat foods, that's why I had to stop them. Best of luck, I wish you to get to the bottom of it, feel great and be healthy.

Accepting self is important but denying the morbidity is not healthy in any level and on the hand rather sends a wrong message

[@Peepof]

[@DebLewww]

I think there’s a difference between “accepting” someone who is morbidly obese or overweight, meaning you don’t treat them poorly solely based on that fact that they are overweight, and CELEBRATING and GLORIFYING it. Too many are conflating “body positivity” with the promotion of what is clearly an unhealthy lifestyle. If an anorexic person wouldn’t be put in the video and rail thin models were taken off runways for promoting unhealthy living in that way, I believe Piers has a point about hypocrisy in this new argument.

[@aaravpatel2320]

i agree with the BMI argument except lets say we calculate ronnie coleman at 297lbs @ 5' 11" which gives us 41.4 which is certified obesity however he is obviously in amazing shapd most will never achieve. still agree withe piers 100% tho

[@katbenedick]

The petition to allow free seating is what disturbs me. Her choice to remain so large isn't my issue nor my business. Airlines charge by the seat. I also wonder how a 5'4" person weighing 380 can maneuver the aisle or use the rest room.

[@vladtheimpaler9577]

Next she'll petition for new building regulations to accommodate plus sized individuals.

[@Linda90503]

If the airlines are mandated by law to accomate morbility obese people by making the seats larger, guess who picks up the costs! Right….the rest of us. I refuse to pay extra for their bad choices in life!! The medically disabled have no choice….she has a choice whether to open her mouth and consume the food.

[@thesarcaster.]

If somehow they allow free seating for fat people . They gonna increase the ticket prices too .

[@SirKolass]

[@Ricanchitown]

If a passenger is above a certain weight I believe the airlines make them purchase 2 seats together or they don't fly

[@trousleperson632]

Something I’ve picked up is whenever someone is at fault, guilty, or embarrassed, they would give an exuse or divert the attention to something else besides themselves so they don’t seem in the wrong so they don’t get embarrassed lol

[@vladtheimpaler9577]

"You being less fat than me doesn't make a...you know..." she can't even finish that sentence, she knows its BS. How fat you are is at the essence of the issue. If you are okay with being a little fat than its your choice and should be respected but if you are fat to the point that it becomes a medical condition that puts your life and wellbeing at risk then it becomes a really bad thing that you need to avoid.

[@butu26890]

Why is people so concerned ab the physical health of a person but not ab the mental issues that their comments could cause on that individual?

[@multimalves]

​@@butu26890 because you can't see it. In the end the super skinny and the super obese meets at the same point: it's obvious! The deeper depressed who cries and says how they're feeling is obvious but not those who hides and smiles. If it's not obvious, if you're not aware of those stuff you simply don't pay attention or do anything. That's why there's so many problems we let grow. And that's human nature. Not meaning we can't do anything, but that's comprehensible. Even knowing someone is bad if they stop talking about it I personally forget, until I remind. The thing is keeping our awareness, sharing it, build the habit of questioning. It's something that takes emotional and intelectual energy. Not everyone have the opportunity to enter in contact with it, or to put it into practice. Some don't have the resources or enough reason to do it. But we just need to make it become subconscious to people, if 2% of the population makes it bigger enough the ones who can't or simply don't think bout those issues will simply take it as common sense. Still it's a long way to go.

I agree with Piers and the other guest on the panel. I was anorexic an there's no way I would want to see an underweight model in a music video. I was very uncomfortable when the fashion industry had underweight models walking the runway. Glamorizing obesity is also sending the wrong message. What is wrong with glamorizing healthy bodies. I love Piers! Good for him for not backing down.

In my opinion, she didn't really manage to respond to Piers Morgan effectively. The argument here is that just because she's in a video doesn't mean she's encouraging others to be like her. If that was the case, we’d have to hide all obese people, as well as the sick, those who are struggling, and anyone who doesn't fit a specific model. By that logic, we'd all have to be blonde, thin, and tall.
