I would love for you to do a video on calories and menopause. I had a bunch of , what I assume are over weight chicks coming for me the other day on a group chat b/c I mentioned doctors recommend you cut your calorie intake to 800-1000 while going through menopause (1200 is on high end dependent on your history)...and OMG, you would have thought I was trying to buy their souls for Lucifer. They all said I had disordered eating and was promoting Ana. When all anyone had to do (as I mentioned in post) was google it, then do a little research and you will see. So I have no idea why so many stay willfully ignorant and fat.

Honestly, a fat person "identifying" as 100lb less than their real weight, makes infinitely more sense than a man "identifying as a woman"... Or even goofyer, "non binary" (which means "a girl with short hair, a nose-ring, and narcissistic tendencies...") Coz at least the fat person once WAS 100lb lighter. And at least it's PHYSICALLY POSSIBLE that they MAY lose that 100lb, sometime in the future. "100lb less" is still insane, delusional fantasy, of course... it's just far LESS insane, delusional, 100% evidence-free fantasy, than the one we're all expected to PRETEND to believe in...

One of the things that drives me WILD is the whole “it’s too expensive to eat healthy food.” I’ve never seen an example that isn’t comparing a MEAL with a SERVING. Frozen dinners are meals for one ie one serving. Dinners made from scratch are generally 4-6 servings. Of course it will be cheaper to buy one meal/serving than a whole dinner of multiple servings. It’s such an immature argument that I always shocked when I hear “adults” regurgitate it over and over again.

[@sweariefaerie9621]

And not a one of them is likely creative enough to play with leftovers until they no longer feel like leftovers...

[@janemokujin]

PREEEACH 👏👏👏👏👏

[@mikiturner]

" Dinners made from scratch are generally 4-6 servings." Yep, but these folks are eating all of those servings in one go.

[@EsmeeAnnamarie]

It's not that it's inherently more expensive, it's that low-income households have been physically separated from utilities like grocery stores etc. (All the small, family-owned grocery stores and such that you'd find in the ghetto's some 40/50 years ago have disappeared and been replaced (outcompeted) by giant supermarket chains located at the edges of suburbia). So now they need to get from their homes to these large supermarkets at the outer edges of suburbia which they need a car for (spoiler alert: they usually can't afford one), or if they do have a car they can use, they now need to buy gas to get there (very expensive!) and then they're there and they're buying ingredients which they need to turn into a meal (which means they need a bunch of ingredients for one dish $$$). It all adds up and you'll find that these people actually do need to pay more than people in suburbia to be able to get these groceries.

[@Januaryjenkins]

@@EsmeeAnnamarie they don’t want to hear this. The ppl saying this don’t actually work in these areas so therefore (to them anyway) it doesn’t exist and isn’t true. I’m telling you, there are nurses (like myself), doctors, and other healthcare workers who are getting pissed off at those who think like this yet don’t know what they are talking about. Edit: it’s not just “ghettos” or urban areas either. Rural areas don’t get as much attention in this (could be racism, idk but it’s harmful to those in these areas) and have it really bad too. Not only are they far from those type of grocery stores, they also are far from hospitals, clinics, lack public transportation and many other things. A lot of those ppl are most like receiving SNAP benefits too.

I miss Aldi, we don’t have it in the west. But of course there are other stores with cheap options.

[@Racha0900]

"Privilege having time to cook." How much time does the average person spend on their phone? Crock pot? Also, it takes 20 minutes to make an average dinner and the same amount of time to go through a drive-through at dinner time.

[@blkrtist]

can i ask what you’re making for dinner? because cooking usually takes on average over an hour for me…

[@shae2323]

The crockpot is the first thing I thought of. You can cook your dinner while you’re working and make several portions so you won’t have to cook for a few days. You can also freeze meals for later. Convenience foods aren’t really more convenient if you know how to cook smarter not harder.

[@junrobin9335]

Literally got motorical issues, it takes me three hours to cook if I don't prep in the weekends cutting veggies already and so on. Not everyone is used to cooking either so they may take longer. And depending on where you live, like with me. Getting take out takes about five to ten minutes. And if your government is as strict as ours. Every unhealthy place still has healthy options that taste good. Stuff I usually pick out cause again I struggle too much with the cooking to be fully independ with it. Not just that but we got regulations on how many callories it can be and it's not allowed to go over two third of what you need in a day. And again needs less unhealthy options on the side as well. Still get my salads from take out and my sandwiches with chicken and veggies too. Gain less weight from that than me cooking for myself and getting sick. And it's not like I get access to home delivery services just cause I struggle a little bit. Those are for senior citizens and people entirely unable to cook a meal themselves.

[@folded_pizza]

Literally made myself soup while watching this video, finished cooking before it was over

[@IzzysTravelDiaries]

​@@blkrtist It usually takes me 2h to make lunch. My family often has lunch at 3pm, because I can only start after I put my toddler down at 1pm. Just the chicken alone takes at least 40 minutes to cook, and then I haven't done any prep. I don't eat dinner, just some lentil chips and a tea.

[@M33PSTER]

The “fat and happy vs thin and miserable” comment gave me secondhand embarrassment because that was my exact attitude before I began my weight loss journey. The assumption that you have to be miserable to be fit is so crazy to me now that I’ve made so many healthy lifestyle changes. Like I *want* to move, I *want* to run and not get winded, I want to feel good in my body not because my sense of self worth is attached to my looks but because I can do and enjoy so much more when I’m fitter. I’m significantly happier now and it’s not necessarily “thinness”, it’s because moving SCIENTIFICALLY makes us feel better and so does eating better and sleeping better. I hope that girl can get out of that mindset because now that I’m out of body positivity, I truly understand the meaning of the phrase “misery loves company”. The people coddling me and keeping me fat did not have my best interest at heart. Sometimes the things that are hard to hear are the things that are best for us.

[@TheSpiderInUrWalls]

Exactly… exercise makes you feel good, it’s nothing to do with the weight loss. Being active and making sure you have all the nutrients you need plus enough water and sleep will make you feel good! Because it’s an evolutionary function to feel good when you look after your body.

[@M33PSTER]

@@TheSpiderInUrWalls Totally wrong that it has nothing to do with the weight loss. There’s heart disease and diabetes in my family, being overweight very well could kill me. I’m 5 feet tall and was a little over 200lbs, I was having trouble sleeping because I was choking on my own fat. I couldn’t jump up and down in one spot without getting winded, and I couldn’t dance with my family. It would be a bold faced lie if I said the weight loss wasn’t part of feeling better.

[@junrobin9335]

@@M33PSTER Just cause it overlaps in a ven diagram doesn't mean it's exclusively tied to weight loss. Exercise does makes less heavy people who don't need to lose weight still feel good. Because your body will actively reward you for the effort of self care with hormones like dopamine. Yes weightloss can make overweight people feel better. But the main goal of exercise is to get stamina and to get a dopamine hit. Not always to lose weight. So they talking about the reasons for exercise being good for everyone and not just overweight people.

[@TheSpiderInUrWalls]

@@M33PSTER I mean that the problem is the fat, mostly visceral not necessarily being heavy. For example, many weightlifters are obese on the BMI scale, but it’s all muscle, and they don’t experience the same health problems as they don’t get the same high cholesterol. I’ll be honest, I definitely could have worded that better, thanks for pointing it out.

[@M33PSTER]

@@TheSpiderInUrWalls Okay yeah, in that way that totally makes sense. It was definitely the fat and not the mass that was the problem. I’m still bigger than BMI says I should be and some of that is still excess fat but my body comp has changed DRASTICALLY so I get what you mean.

I feel like everyone that says healthy food is more expensive are calculating that on top of the unhealthy foods they're buying or they're just looking at convenient health foods. Salad kits can be pricey, as an example, and you could buy a bottle of low cal dressing and a few heads of lettuce for the same price as 1-2 kits.

[@nightcoreeclub]

yessss. pre-prepared grocery store foods can be many times more expensive than just buying and preparing the raw ingredients.

[@KreeZafi]

THIS is probably it tbh. If you literally just buy meat and vegetables and rice/pasta, it is definitely going to be cheaper (per meal) than any ready meal will be. Though you gotta be mindful of your choices and not go for the most expensive meats and vegetables.

[@platanous]

i think the reality is that many have no idea where to start so it's just easier to eat already prepared meals

[@jocelynsmyth6604]

I think you also have to know yourself- I am more likely to eat a pre-made salad, than buy the ingredients, and at least things arnt as likely to be wasted that way - and that's okay, because I budget for that. Still more reasonable that going to the drive through every day

[@2doot]

People are paying for the packaging and preparation. Admittedly, groceries HAVE gone up in price. It's ridiculous. However, buying a head of lettuce isn't going to be pricer than a pre-packaged kit, pre portioned, pre-sealed kit. Like not shit it's gonna be the pricier option if you're literally paying for the convenience of it.

[@therewillbecatswithgwenhwyfar]

I think people who are experiencing obesity have misperceptions about how much food they're eating and how much a serving actually is to be on healthy balanced diet. When I was 350 pounds, I had no idea how much food I was eating. I lost the first 150 pounds with diet alone. I didn't even have to exercise because I just had to stop eating about 3/4 of the food that I had been. So it's not an issue of trying to replace your current intake with super bougie healthy foods. It's an issue of dropping your calories down to 1800 a day instead of 1000s.

[@tatimarie8277]

I think the majority of people obese or not don’t realize how small a serving actually is. If I eat a single serving of cereal it doesn’t even halfway fill the bowl which was a huge shock.

[@skaterlover1999]

I purchased an air fryer and pots for work. I will no longer go out to eat but will do better. I've also been walking 10k per day and on some days, I do more. My only issue are sweets!!!!!! Trying to control that. I don't drink anything but water so that's good. Imma start incorporating jumping rope but I gotta do something because there's a huge roller skating event coming up next month.

[@TheBLGL]

My issue is sweets, too, and I’m thin. But my grandpa was thin, too, and wound up with type 2 diabetes, so I’m really scared about it. To make matters worse, I am getting work done in my mouth (two root canals, crowns) and can’t eat anything but soup, smoothies, and ice cream cause of the pain. And not the good soup with chunks of veg, I love that, but creamed soup. So I’m just eating ice cream to try to keep weight on. Thankfully that will be over on Tuesday for the most part, I have one more filling after that. But once my mouth is free of pain, I’m going to try to cut out sweets and eat more healthy fats.

[@skaterlover1999]

@TheBLGL I keep trying to tell my daughter who thinks she's ok because she looks like a model that she can develop diabetes. She eats more sweets than I do and I get on her about it all the time but I don't think she listens BECAUSE of my size compared to hers. I think that losing this weight will be beneficial with showing her what I'm saying rather than just telling her though she doesn't even see me eating sweets as nearly as much as she does.

[@skaterlover1999]

@TheBLGL and yes, not only diabetes but tooth issues as well can happen. Lord knows it's hard because that's what we're using as an excuse but even if I mess up, I'm going to keep trying. Plus, I absolutely miss rollerskating the way I used to.

[@CarmenGL-h8r]

​@@TheBLGLif you want to have more calorie dense pureed soups, you can add nuts (either raw or boiled beforehand), meats, pulses... And do as with vegetables, puree them until there's no chunks left. Good luck on your recovery, tooth pain is awful!

[@winx961]

They have ice cream bars at Walmart that are only 60-80 calories and like 2 grams of sugar, it’s carb smart ones? I eat like 2 a week and it’s helped me stay on a calorie deficit but still have the sweet so I don’t binge on something worse later :)

[@MattTheWitchSausage]

Hey! French guy here. The segment you filmed in the supermarket was super enlightening. I know the regulations are pretty different between France and the US, but man, I always thought bad quality food was pretty cheap and it really isn't. Maybe fresh vegetables are pricey, that I do not know, but at least you got frozen one for a regular price + whole cereals are quite affordable too. No real excuses then. Apart for food addiction ; Cheetos and other of these things European folks can't even fathom eating. From an outsiders perspective, it really feels like some trap :")

lol cheetos are a fun treat. not an essential nutrient. people forget 😂 fresh veggies can be expensive here but if you know where to go i e local farmers markets, sales/discounts at grocery stores are common. frozen veggies tend to have more volume and be cheaper bc you can re freeze them and not worry about spoilage as soon as fresh veggies. not to say there isn’t a way to make fresh veggies go a long way. merci pour ta comment :D

[@ashers.hangout]

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it over and over again, I refuse to call this *body* positivity. It’s just fat positivity at this point. When body positivity first came around, though it did include fat people, it mainly focused on uplifting those with physical differences. People with genetic conditions or disorders that causes them to look different, people who have deformities, people who have skin differences like vitiligo, people who were in accidents that left them disfigured, burns victims, and the list goes on. To me, that will forever be what body positivity is. This whole “TikTok Body Positivity!” Thing is just fat/plus size positivity. There’s nothing wrong with that, of course, it’s just the way the community acts that’s wrong.

I loved your comment about "find the time" for exercise. It took me a very, *very* long time to really understand what worked for me. Being a night owl I thought I could only work out in evenings after my kid went to bed and when work was over. It sucked because then I had less time to hang out with my husband, I didn't sleep well (way too awake) and I couldn't do it long term. This past year I challeneged myself, a notorious anti-morning person, to get up early and get my exercise done before everything else. It started out with just doing stuff I liked--lighting weights--and I was so suprised at how much energy I had throughout the day. I now get up and walk 3 miles before 45m - 1hr of other exercies, 5 days a week. All before I drop my kid off at school and go to work. I thought I'd be exhausted but I feel so good and energized this way. And I sleep very well! One thing I love about fitness is its versatility. What works for one doesn't necessarily have to be the routine for all. Some people love to run (I hate it) but that isn't the only way to get your movement in. It really is more about finding some *time* to do some *thing* you love, which is true for hobbies too. It's a prioritization thing, which is why I try to resist rolling my eyes when people say they "don't have the time." Some truly don't but most of us do.

[@itsme-dt1xb]

I want to say something about the „are athletic women more attractive than obese woman“, because I hoped that you would go more into it. I think this question and how it got heandled shows a lot about the dynamic between us women. Look how everybody tries to not offend someone, everyone really watches their words and they can mostly agree on the most controversial topics. But when a woman says I think athletic people are more attractive in general (she didn‘t say she is more attractive) she gets labled as arrogant and shamed by the girls. The aggression really comes out there. Let‘s be real. We all know that people have sexual preferences but most part of the population is attracted to fit people. This can also be a big booty latina, we‘re talking about healthy which doesn‘t automatically mean thin. Actually there has been research that shows that people adored slim waists on women houndreds years ago. People from different countries who didn‘t communicate with each other about it, there was no global beauty Standard back then liked the same attribute about women: the waist. Scientists extracted this from poems. Biologically we‘re wired to reproduce with another human being who looks healthy and has a slim waist and proportionally bigger ass/ breasts signalize fertility. That‘s why men generally prefer a small waist, even on black and Latina woman, who also have a proportionally small waist, when they‘re healthy. In my opinion it‘s absolutely legit to say that the opposite gender is generally attracted to healthy and fit bodes. I feel like we‘re walking on eggshells here. Probs for the young women‘s confidence and I hate how she got judged for that. Take a sample of 100 men and put them with the obese women and the fit women in a room, ask the men who they find the most attractive and you would see that the fit women are picked significantly more. Stop the cap. And for the people who say, what about personality, yes personality does play a role too but we‘re talking here about sexual attractiveness and often you have to look a certain way before someone even gives you the chance to show your personality. I‘m not saying that it‘s fair, but this is definitely the reality when it comes to first impressions.

[@John-cd9ji]

I wouldn't try hard to associate sexyness with healthyness in any species because sexual selection can and does also select handicaps. There has never been a time when all humans could get as big as we are today, so there was no need to evolve male brains to prefer normal weight women. What male brains notice is the ratio of 'hip' to waist, which is very low in successfull (because good-looking) morbidly obese models. It is simply a secondary sex charasteristic to have wider hips and a certain fat distribution, so male brains are probably not interested in it because it represents a healthy person, but because it represents a female and sexually mature person. That's why women can report that their loved ones try to talk them out of loosing weight if they have a hourglass shape despite being overweight. The preference for the ratio has been stable in the different cultural periods but the preference for a specific weight class varied. I believe that today, the athletic look is a status symbol just like having extra weight was a status symbol in the time when only kings could eat the amount everyone can eat today. Todays "fit" women dont have enough fat to create the hip to waist ratio that men prefer, that's why many female fitness influencers get BBLs. We should all try to be normal weight and build muscle, but men are innately more interested in feminine appearance than physical fitness. 🤷‍♂

[@kirausamaria5409]

Fattness isn't a feminine trait, it isn't normal. Men are fat too and we don't think they have 'feminine' traits.

[@xxxmelissatacionxxx]

Yeah I agree, obviously the majority of men prefer fit women. It's weird because part of the reason women (and men) work out is to look more desirable, but then women as a whole are worried about being truthful about how it's more attractive?? This is with the exception of body builder type women's bodies of course.

[@wolf.eye._-]

Absolutely

[@wolf.eye._-]

​@kirausamaria5409 Yeah, but I've noticed that when men get fat, it does feminize them in a physical way. I've seen ones that looked like they had feminine hips and damn near full sized breasts because of their size, and it makes them feel soft. I've never been attracted to large men for that reason. I'm attracted to masculinity in males and femininity in females. This is not to say that I'd never date an overweight person, I have, because personality, humor and intelligence goes a long way for me, but as far as who catches my eye, yeah it's usually fit people. Especially with males because again the fat tends to feminize their bodies.

Former single parent here who learned that even out here in the sticks, Walmart delivers groceries. It takes minutes to cook hambugers made to everyone's liking without worrying that some fast food employee might have been a little lax in storing & preparing raw meat. Introduce your family to the kitchen's raison d'etre - it can be a learning experience about cultures, traditions & pitching in which will bode them well in the future; plus research has shown cooking is therapeutic. (Who knows, you may have a budding chef in your home.) Fast food/pizza delivery meals can be relegated to the "special treat" category which every parent can attess has it's own rewards. And really, there's nothing like the sweet smell of cooking onions to make a kitchen sing!

[@eeelaine]

I’m watching this while doing my morning cardio! My sister once called me an elitist for saying that everyone is capable of eating healthy. I just stared blankly at her because I was confused. My husband and I shop at Walmart because it’s the most affordable and we don’t buy any organic or fancy health brands. Our weekly grocery bills are pretty low and we don’t go out to eat much so we’re saving a ton of money. I think a lot of people conflate things when it comes to food. There are a few qualities to consider with food: taste, convenience, nutrition, and cost. It’s hard to have food that meets all four qualities without some preplanning and informed decision making. Many people want every meal to be the most delicious thing ever and that’s difficult to achieve while saving costs and keeping the nutrition in mind if they’re not willing to put in the time to learn how to cook. Also, it’s so easy to cook and bulk and have food ready to put together. Like Michelle was saying, boil a bunch of pasta, have some frozen veggies ready, you can also pre-cook some chicken. Then, when it’s meal time, just grab a little bit of everything and throw some sauce or seasoning on it and you’re good to go!

[@hannahdyson9963]

My husband and I will literally live off of a big frozen bag of veggies. A big bag of frozen chicken breast and rice for literally a week And all of that probably cost us less than $10 at Walmart. My husband will buy his own bananas and strawberries and cut them up and put them in bags and freeze them cuz they're cheaper than getting pre-frozen bags of fruit.

I kept finding I was STILL STARVING even after finishing one (you're right, there's so little food in there) and of course it's so preserved it practically skips your digestion too. the calories are always crazy for what you're actually getting out of it too. and then you feel too crappy to cook later. absolutely banned them from my house recently and I am starting to feel well enough TO COOK AGAIN. also cutting out so much sugar has seemingly revived my interest in normal water?? and the woman who just didn't like the word "obese" reminded me of how some people will flip out if you use the word "ignorant" with them, thinking you are calling them stupid when really you are saying they just lack knowledge in a certain area. these days you literally can't use some words bc people believe they're just an insult and have never bothered to care what the word actually means.

I was at 306lbs and I'm down to 160lbs 😁 It does get harder the more you lose, my first 100 was way easier than the last 20. But, start slow and make gradual changes, you'll get there! Best of luck to you on your journey!

@@The_Brealist oooohhh, shit.. Okay, I do take pills but I only do it when I haven't had period in 3 months.. I don't take them monthly coz I'm just hoping that they will come naturally.. Also, I gotta admit, I am a bit lazy and and unmotivated (when I'm depressed which is 90% of the time), so I don't go out of my apartment. I am currently unemployed so mobility and sleep schedule is almost non existent. I have been eating less carbs. So I do have to exercise, huh? 😭😭😭

@@KaJeTheRiPPer starting where I was, I did not wanna leave my house, put on clothes... Shower. So I get ya there. I love my stationary bike. It was cheap (Amazon sale) and I can do it in front of the TV, but depending on budget, you could even start off by just doing "beginner" workouts, yoga, stretching videos on KZbin(I love free!). You'd be amazed what a 15 minute full body stretch when you wake up can do for your mood! When I was at my worst, I took EVERY WIN. Even if it was just completing one task a day. I def didn't just wake up one day and start running 😋 little positive changes every day add up! Start small, and just keep collecting those wins day after day - you deserve to have effort put into you being the best you!! It's never going to be perfect, progress over perfection 😁

6:14 medically I’m considered in the normal weight range but that literal uphill struggle gets me breathless every time.
