Big Fat Denial
I was overweight as a child up until I was 22. At my heaviest, I felt fine; I had no mobility issues, I walked to work every day, I had lots of energy, etc (I just ate more calories than I burned, so I was fat). I lost weight and managed to keep it off for the most part through proper nutrition and exercise.
Fast forward 20+ years later, I gained weight during the pandemic (being sedentary as a result of working from home, eating heavily processed comfort foods, and drinking wine). I let myself go. Because of the weight, my health went to absolute shit - FAST. I began to experience
Fatigue.
Depression.
Inflammation.
Joint Pain.
Sleep Apnea.
Constant WHEEZING.
Indigestion.
Heartburn.
Acid Reflux.
High Blood Pressure.
I couldn't stand for very long due to the pain and pressure in my lower back. I had problems with my balance. My digestive system was a mess. I hurt just getting out of bed every morning. I would wake up gasping for air like I forgot how to breathe. The acid reflux was kind of my breaking point because it already sucked trying to sleep with the joint pain, wheezing, and fear of waking up gasping - now I felt like my esophagus was melting as well.
I went back to my trusty TDEE calculations and stuck to a diet of 1500-1700 calories per day* (lots of lean protein and bulky vegetables, as well as carbs because carbs are important). Once I lost the weight, guess what disappeared?
Fatigue.
Depression.
Inflammation.
Joint Pain.
Sleep Apnea.
Constant WHEEZING.
Indigestion.
Heartburn.
Acid Reflux.
High Blood Pressure.
I see a lot of young fat-positive people out there who brag that they "feel fine" being fat and that they are active and happy. That may be the case now. It's going to be a different situation once you get older. Our bodies are not meant to be excessively fat. We need health at every size - but we are not healthy at every size.
*This TDEE is based on my personal stats and may not be suitable for everyone. This included 3 full meals plus snacks and was not in any way restrictive or caused "starvation." If you want to create a caloric deficit in order to lose/maintain weight, speak with a nutritionist to come up with personalized meal plans.

Set point weight theory is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. My body doesn't have a separate mind from me, I'm happier when I'm thinner, and if my "body" has a problem with that it can go fvck itself

I'm really curious what "weight-health denialists" like HAES and the bopo movement think of the emerging science regarding the importance of gut bacteria.
New research is showing a link between gut bacterial health and our brain function, and I'm wondering too if, in the future, it can be argued that all this junk food- excess sugar, chemicals, dyes- has caused a degree of brain damage or degradation in mental processes in the Obesity Epidemic Generation. We know food addiction, particularly to junk food, alters our biochemistry, so I'm sure r/fatlogic will especially interesting 20, 30 years from now.

LMAO told this person who said "Fatphobes can die" (Fatphobes being anyone who thinks that maybe eating McDonalds a day is bad for you) And I told them they would definitely be dying before me and they sent me like a fucking eassy about why I'm going to hell apparently (Gluttony is a sin btw)

I tried every diet in the book. I tried some that weren't in the book. I tried eating the book. It tasted better than most of the diets.

watching ed discourse on radblr is exactly like libfem ed discourse. assuming any and all relatively thin women have an eating disorder, completely ignoring the fact that the #1 most common eating disorder is binge eating disorder.

i used to be a hardcore body positive “activist”. i used to buy in so heavily (pun intended) to the health at any size bullshit. i’ve suffered from restrictive eating disorders since i was around 13, got to my lowest weight at 16 and then discovered “body positivity”. i think i gained about 80 pounds between my 16th and 17th birthday. 🤮 i stayed obese throughout my late teens and early twenties because i truly believed it was ok.
it wasn’t until finally this past year, age 23, that i was finally able to undo all of that bullshit. i lost 100 lbs in 7 months. that’s how huge i had gotten — the weight just started falling off the moment i started giving a shit and putting in actual effort. i started working out multiple times a week, med cal restriction / high protein on work out days and low cal / carb / fat on sedentary days. i actually started eating what my body needed (smaller portions and actual nutrients) instead of the junk it constantly wanted. and it fucking worked. the way all the other fatties said it couldn’t, wouldn’t, shouldn’t. 🥱
i never truly felt confident while preaching body positivity. felt like shit all the time. i was essentially just binging and giving into literally any craving i had, emotional eating all the time, and claiming to love myself while doing it. but the truth is i DIDNT. i was miserable, and ashamed, and unhappy. i can’t take any of the fat acceptance bs seriously as someone who has been through it — i see right through it. you can smile and shake your ass on tiktok and claim to love being big but i know that misery firsthand. it’s physical and emotional warfare and there’s nothing empowering about it. at the end of the day you know the way the ppl around you see you even if they claim to be body positive too. it’s gross, it’s uncomfortable, it’s inconvenient! there’s nothing fun or freeing about it. i have plenty of work left to do but i’m so far from where i started and i feel so free now compared to this time last year when i was just starting my journey of unlearning
just wanted to share. there is always hope no matter how big someone has gotten and how brainwashed by ~fat liberation~ they currently are. it doesn’t have to be this way!

When you'd love to look like a twig, but no matter how much weight you lose you will still have loose skin from where you let yourself get big in the first place

Have you seen the "fatlogic" sub on reddit? They share a lot of your posts there, and not in a positive way. Not sure if you've posted about that before, sorry - I'm new here.
Yeah I'm not surprised, they are a fatphobic bigotted subreddit. They are free to be as nasty as they was as per the rules of reddit and vulnerable people just have to put up with it. I'm sure they love to hate us LMAO
We get to live rent free in their heads. 😘
