Question: If you are curvy/fat/heavy/high BMI/obese/overweight, which word would you prefer people to use for you?
Note: I have heard that one of these words is a slur, but when I googled it I found a lot of controversy, so I'm including it to see the results. Also, one of these is a medical term, but my aunt brought it up as a non-offensive way to describe people.
Please share for a larger sample size and for authors and people who write image IDs and people who want to describe their friends to know how to do all of that non-offensivly.

Adam, 27, first showed signs of an eating disorder at 12. His weight remained stable despite other overt signs that his body was in crisis – he had early-stage kidney and bowel problems and was not developing testosterone. “No one ever worried,” he says, because he was never underweight and so his eating disorder slipped under the radar. His body has been permanently damaged in the process. At 23, Adam was diagnosed with ‘atypical anorexia’. It is characterised by all the same behaviours as anorexia nervosa: caloric restriction, disordered eating and psychological markers such as an intense fear of gaining weight, and body image distortion and preoccupation. However, to receive a ‘typical’ anorexia diagnosis, you must have a body mass index (BMI) that classifies you as ‘underweight’. Never mind that BMI is famously a deeply flawed indicator that fails to account for differences in race, gender, age, or muscle mass – the size of the body is diagnosed instead of the behaviour. With atypical anorexia, although what you do, think and feel is the same, you may not have lost weight, or not enough weight to present as emaciated. The ‘atypical’ label declassifies the disorder as not yet dangerous, pushing the patient down the risk matrix. The premise of treatment is therefore the worst-case scenario: waiting until the patient’s BMI drops to a threatening level for action to be taken. This course of action would be harmful for any medical condition, but is particularly damaging when it comes to eating disorders. “Your mind is already constantly telling you that you are not sick enough – perhaps not even sick at all. So telling someone that they have to be skinnier in order to be taken seriously and to receive help encourages them to get sicker. It makes them want to prove that they are struggling,” says Taylor*, 21, who has been diagnosed with atypical anorexia. “Eating disorders, especially anorexia, are so competitive. You constantly compare yourself to others who are struggling. As if the one who gets the sickest wins. It would be incredibly helpful if doctors would not participate in this ’competition’ by only treating the one who has the lowest BMI.”

just imagine this: you wake up - it's results day. you look in the mirror and you can't help but love what you see; your stomach caves in just perfectly, your thighs never touch, your ribs are unmissable, your waist is like that of a ballerina's. you move with such ease - you are weightless. your books lay strewn across your desk alongside your unfinished cup of tea from last night. on your chair are three folded clothing items - they are dainty, beautiful, and most importantly they are in the smallest size available. you dress without inspecting your body of its imperfections as you have none to inspect. as you travel to school, you catch the envious glances of those you brush past. you move with an air of elegance, grace and perfection. and that is what you are. all you can ever be. as such, being handed your results is exhilarating. you know what you are going to achieve, but nothing can compare to the rush of joy that overcomes you as you see those perfect grades. perfect like you are.
you can make this a reality, the choice is yours: continue dreaming, or become the dream?
(this is for myself)

Ask teachers for help whenever I need it.
Stay off my phone for all of class. 📵
Bring a book to read or do work from another class if I'm bored. 📕
Do homework the same day it is assigned if possible.
Visit the library every Friday or Saturday to do homework so I can have the rest of the weekend free. 📑

I saw your blog and I am in awe! Your journey has inspired me a lot. Whenever I feel like eating or binging, I open Tumblr and scroll until I lose my appetite. These days I open your blog straight away. I kind of relate to you, I am preparing for an exam that will decide if I get one of the best med schools in the country or just a random one in which any student can enter by paying more. I feel horrible admitting this but I am kind of really jealous of how you have been managing your studies...I sit at my desk for 2 hours with my books in front of me and I still don't study, the only thing saving my grades is private tuition. I feel so guilty. I really wish I was pretty and smart like you. I have never really had a person, celeb or anyone for that matter as my inspiration to lose weight or study but you are my inspiration now. You perfect- Skinny, smart, pretty, and real....You are everything I want to be. I know you have worked really hard to get there. Please share something that could help me, especially for academics. I am so embarrassed because even right now I am supposed to be revising Physics or studying for tom's Biology test, and I binged yesterday too so I haven't eaten anything since morning. Sorry for the long post.
Anon you can dm me at any moment by the way, I wanted to say thanks for the compliments you made me blush... Also for the advice. What has been working for me is saying that everything ends someday. The pain of studying ends once your education is over, but the pain of not being serious, not doing your best everyday, the pain of not studying never ends. You have to put in mind the thought that if you don't study today; Tomorrow you're less likely to study. And the more you leave for tomorrow the more discouraged you are to actually study. I noticed that the hardest thing about studying is starting. So do a ritual, train yourself like a pavlov dog. My ritual is coffee, death note music and pretending I am light Yagami. It sounds silly when I say it but it works. This character intrigues me. The way he studies, how he's at the top of his class. How he's effortlessly smart. I emulate his habits. I also emulate L's habit. He immerses himself in whatever he wants to learn. Watch as many videos of the best med students. Emulate their habits. There is no shame in copying the best. Then you can adapt their method to yours. Discipline is more important than motivation but motivation is always nice. Look at the bigger picture. Your goal. My goal is to become a plastic surgeon. I imagine myself in the operating room saving lives. Fixing what's broken whether that's because of burns or a nasty accident. Some kind of trauma done to the body. To make the dream feel more attainable I do stitches on plastic skin. Be delusional. Pretend that's a real person you're stitching up. Do it over and over. (Dad taught me different kinds of stitches and when to do them) That's what I do. I want to be a plastic surgeon and nothing will stop me from getting there. The journey will be hard. Accept the ups and downs and make the most of it. Appreciate each step, savor it. Appreciate your wins, celebrate them. Each time you do something good reward yourself. Even with something small. Like for example "today I studied for 5 h on my own, I'll do a mini beauty ritual before I sleep" as you're doing the beauty ritual say to yourself that you did good today, you deserve your beauty ritual, you deserve your green tea full of anti oxydants. My thing is that I also feel really guilty and stressed out if I don't study so I do it all the time. And I tell myself that I need to have this method if I want to succeed. Med school isn't for the weak so I need to be prepared. I tell myself while other future med students are out with their friends I am getting more advanced on the program. I am doing better. I AM better. Tell yourself that. It's okay to feel good about yourself for doing your best. I have a nasty habit of putting myself down a lot and never being satisfied with what I do yet look at how you perceive me anon. You got this, if you need any advice or a study buddy I am here too. We can succeed together. Also I am sorry for your binge I hope you're feeling better and thanks again for the compliment I really appreciate them so much you don't even know. I feel super subconscious about myself. I actually feel stupid, lazy, ugly and fat. But I try my best and that's all that matters to me at this point. Ofc I wish I was prettier, smarter and even more serious about my studies so I do all that I can do to get there. I starve, I study more. And when I'll become the most sought after plastic surgeon in France I'll talk to my colleagues and I'll get my rhinoplasty and breast reduction and I'll be perfect then. Oh also always have a really big goal. There is an expression in french that says look for the stars so that you fall on the moon. Which means always strive for perfection, so that when you don't reach it you reach the best you can do. I believe in you anon. And I also believe in the capacities of everyone that's reading this. Don't underestimate yourself and the things you can do. You are smart. You are clever. You can get thin. You can be pretty. You can be the person you want to become. All you have to do is work hard to reach your goals.

ugh
for once in my life I don’t want to be categorized as “overweight” because of my BMI. My BMI is 25.9 right now. I’ll just be so fucking happy if I can just get to the normal weight range.
I’m getting there…

i can't wait to be skinny.
to finally be the skinniest in the friend group. to be lovely and graceful. to be the only one who can fit in small places. to be able to read in small little nooks no one else can fit in. to be the loveliest one at the coffee shop. for my teachers to look at me with care and concern but do nothing about it because they can't be sure. for people to comment "hope ur ok" and "i want ur body" under my tiktoks. to be the most perfect ballerina. to be able to sit in their laps and have them comment on how light i am. so they can pick me up without a second thought. to be that winter girl. to constantly be cold. to look at my body and love what i see. to have a defined jawline. to be the person people could wrap their arms around twice when they hug them. to be my own thinspo. to be skinnier than all the skinny girls at school. to be loved. to be perfect.
