PART ONE: Our Thoughts on Jillian Michaels Criticizing Lizzo

Real fam, do you think Jillian Michaels went too far?

[@princesswatson2693]

Obesity isn't healthy who'd think saying that would be controversial.

[@asantewaakissi2650]

Princess Watson I don’t understand! I mean obesity generally is linked with heart disease etc that’s not to say slim women don’t get diabetes etc but generally if you are overweight it’s risky. How this is offensive to anyone? Beats my mind!!

[@christengardner4780]

Bigger people doesn't mean you're unhealthy hun. Skinny people also get diabetes and other stuff as well.

[@queeniegal]

Exactly‼

[@brieoliver]

@@christengardner4780 I was just coming to say this. No one knows what Lizzo's health is because we are not her doctors privy to that info. All we know is that she's a big girl. Being big doesn't mean you are unhealthy. It's one of many factors but it isnt the only. And I would argue Lizzo is probably healthier than most folks commenting on her weight. She damn sure is out here exercising harder than most.

[@MorganCPaige]

This is an actual response, theirs was a bit faaaaaaake. But some of these commenters are getting really bold and crazy out here, like everybody is a doctor all the sudden. Simply put, it was that what she said was wrong - it was that it didn’t feel like it had the best of intentions. And her tone. On top of that though, if we shouldn’t be talking about be celebrating her body, only her music as she said - why criticize it?!?! Lmao

Its proven that the more body fat you carry the more issues you are predisposed to. Blood pressure, diabetes, and then the wear and tear on your body. The knees and back dont like carrying around lots of excess weight and eventually will catch up with you. My aunt is a nurse and she said when overweight people come in they almost always complain about back or knee issues.... all that said if a person is happy with themselves while being overweight then more power to them. Doesn't affect my life but I'm not gonna sit here and pretend and praise that someone like lizzo being the size she is can be completely healthy. You dont have to be built like a model but we only get one body you should try to take care of it the best you can, and carrying around a higher percentage of body fat and weight isnt taking care of yourself

I love how Adrienne says that Julianne Michael's sounded ignorant and in the same breath showed her ignorance. So because healthy looking ppl die too then being obese is okay??? Um no. I am not condoning how Julianne said it but there is truth in what she says. Let's stop sugar coating it. Obesity is a disease y'all. And Lizzo is obese. Celebrate it all you want but it's a disease. And, it's a disease that puts you at risk for other diseases namely heart disease, sleep apnea, diabetes. And yes thin ppl get these diseases as well but studies have shown that obesity is a risk factor for the above I am a physician and I have seen ppl get tracheostomies (holes in their necks) because they are so obese they need a ventilator to help them breath. Also on a side note, Lizzo is talented but I am just over the excessive body exposure. Is her message that the only way to be confident and love yourself is to show as much skin as possible?

[@kathyd6714]

JK golden I agree . And it’s sad how lizzo is delusional because she then attacked Jillian for it . Most people with the disease always feel attacked especially when a skinnier person tells them to lose weight and eat healthier because they think they’re being made fun of when it’s actually a huge concern. They think they can’t be accepted because they love being that way and they’re “big boned” but the reality is that , humans already get sooo many health problems as it is when you get older . I just turned 20 and I’m just now dealing with diabetes because it’s in my genetics and you would never guess due to my weight since I’m around 120 and I’m 5’3 . It’s not about being made fun of , it’s about living the life you should but healthy

[@mexalinemateo5519]

Yesss Jillian was speaking facts. The point is to be healthy. I'm in the process of losing weight, we're all trying to live longer lives not get unnecessary diseases and die. It's everyone's prerogative. Lizzo needs to get it together for her health not for everyone else but she is trying to show young girls that it's ok to be overweight

[@lalaartsy7140]

Being healthy does not equal being skinny and anyone who says otherwise is ignorant on the subject. As a women, you really shouldn’t comment on another women’s body. It’s inappropriate and gross. I hope all of you in these comments would feel completely okay with someone commenting on your health without knowing absolutely anything about it.

[@dionisiasanders7791]

@@lalaartsy7140 what you're saying is true. However that's not what Jillian said. She never said skinny equals healthy. She just remarked how obesity and diabetes are linked. AND she was baited because she was ASKED about Lizzo. And the lady mentioned celebrating obesity. Which of course is counter productive to be healthy.

[@lalaartsy7140]

Dionisia Sanders if being skinny doesn’t equal being healthy than that must also mean being fat doesn’t equate to being unhealthy. Yes obesity and diabetes are linked but so is meat consumption and diabetes. I just don’t think it’s fair to judge someone else’s health based solely off there weight. Especially when there are people out here drinking alcohol multiple times per week or taking drugs who are probably on this thread calling Lizzo obese and unhealthy. Obesity is only one factor in your health.

[@lileastkiller3394]

This is one of those times when unfortunately the sensitivity of the subject is over shadowing the facts - Jillian is honestly right, because society IS glamorizing MORBID obesity

[@Aboutaprincess]

Completely agree. Sometimes honesty hurts but it doesn't make it any less truthful.

[@shawneegirl1980]

Glamorizing it how? Because Lizzo is a big girl that's a celebrity? I don't recall Lizzo ever saying Obesity was the way to be ...

[@lileastkiller3394]

Shawnee Reed But People such as the person interviewing Jillian basically say “oh isn’t it great that she’s that big and we get to see someone this big!” And everyone is saying weight doesn’t have a correlation with health, but the facts are that that can be true for regular people (with average to somewhat overweight BMI’s) but when it comes to MORBID OBESITY, there is NO argument, it IS NOT HEALTHY and you ARE DISEASE PRONE and these people are PROMOTING THAT. So it’s not about if those exact words came out of Lizzos mouth, it’s about what people are consuming and taking away from the situation and the verbiage.

[@lulunu9139]

Yeah, but the point they're trying to make is, needing to live a healthier lifestyle doesn't mean you shouldn't love your body. From someone who has lost a lot of weight in the past and gotten healthy, I can tell you firsthand that it is only when you begin to love yourself that you begin to do better for yourself. Meaning, someone who doesn't love or value their body will not be motivated to treat it better: LOVE comes first.
