Just reazlising how little 1200 calories is and that it makes no sense for adults to be eating that little

Sorry, didn't know your opinion means more than actual researches and opinions of scientists. And there is also not such thing to fixed amount of calories. It depends on your height, age, metabolism and amount of exercise/movement you get. And bunch of other factors.

Just a reminder as the new year comes around that it’s 1000000% okay not to engage in diet talk. Change the subject. Make it known that you’re uncomfortable. Call people out if you have to. Don’t let them pressure you into normalizing it, especially if it’s a triggering topic for you.

It's fuckin normal thing. Don't call people out kindly ask them to change the topic if you can't handle it. Just cause you don't want to do it, don't be a bitch to those who do.

have i told yall how fucked up it is that facebook ads about dieting almost always show up on my feed because they’re targeting ‘women aged 18-24′

Can you imagine how fucked up is it to complain not about getting commercials, but about what kind of commercials you get. Ignore and move on. That's what I do with commercials for shoes I have already bought. I don't need them anymore, someone else might, so just stop it. It's just another attempt to complain about something you don't care about.

I mean is she wrong though? If you keep going on silly diets you really will end up miserable and hungry all the time like Edie and probably drinking a lot.

Actually, she was being sarcastic, but she is more right than the whole fat acceptance, and that is just hilarious. Is fascinyhow people think that their bodies now's best. You basically made trash can out of your mouth and you claim your body is asking for all that trash cause it needs it to live.

I invented a sweet new cleanse!!! Here's the rules

1: eat when you're hungry

2: eat genuinely whatever you want

3: stop when you're full

4: repeat

I'm calling it the "stop starving yourself cleanse" and I fully expect it to be the next big diet trend

Please don't eat whatever you want. If I ate whatever I wanted, I wouldn't fit through the doors and would love only on chocolate. My immune system would disappear.

BUT don't starve yourself, that is indeed true. But you really need to think about what "starving yourself" really mean. Is it not having candy when you crave some? Is it eating only 3 times a day? Is it eating bunch of veggies for dinner? No. Starving mean not providing yourself with nutrients that your body needs. Cravings doesn't mean you are hungry. Eating low calorie meals is not being hungry. It's called giving your body what it needs, not craves. When you are overweight (or obese), your body is craving all the times, because you teached it to eat more than it should.

People love talking abt the health risks of obesity but barely anyone talks about the health risks of yo-yo dieting and long term calorie deficiency

Everyone talks about it. Whole fat acceptance does (dumbly, without research, naturally).

Yes, it is dangerous. Many studies and doctors claim so. You are not special or "educated" for pointing it out. And what are you doing here is saying "why are we trying to solve this problem, when there is also another problem?". We, as people and also medical community is trying to solve both of these problems. That is why there are laws that allow to treat anorexic people without their consent (because many times, it's a mental problem).

BUT diet is many times necessary to treat overweight. When done right, there are no risks involved. You can do it right by consulting your diets and lifestyle in general with professionals (especially doctors). Staying overweight, on the other hand, is risk by itself. And way too many people are (especially US), that is why so many people AND DOCTORS speak about it

Can we call out all of the diet culture bullshit that keeps rearing its ugly head during quarantine please?

I do not give half of one single fuck about how to “not pile on the pounds” during isolation.

Can we self-isolate and not have all of this shit shoved at us? Please? Self-isolation is important and necessary, so making people worry about their weight in addition to everything else is pretty fucking harmful.

Someone quarantine me from diet culture and diet talk for the rest of my life. 😖

Actually, you should worry a out your weight (and why the fuck is it so fuckin hard to sit home?). That is really great that people are promoting that. You should stay healthy, not just for sake of not being overweight (and therefore much more prone to other deseases), but also workout and healthy food increases your immune system and decreases your chances of getting coronavirus. Many doctors are warning about obesity being one of the factors to cause complications during this illness.

So please people, do few push ups, or go running somewhere without people, or just little leg lifts while watching tv. Have some fruit and veggies and stay healthy :)

Weight loss isn't a victory. Weight loss isn't a positive goal, or a "happy" accident. Celebrating weight loss is a product of diet culture, even if you werent dieting to lose weight. If you say you are body positive but are ecstatic about losing weight, diet culture still has a hold over how you perceive people's bodies and the fat on them.

Losing weight is positive and great achievement when it's healthy. If you were overweight and lost weight, cheers to you. Ignore all these idiots with insecurities and just continue to do your thing.

Getting healthy is the achievement. Losing weight is just the side affect. Weight loss does nothing to help the body, being healthy does. There are unhealthy ways to lose weight, and it is more likely for unhealthy ways to work than healthy ways, so if we push for people to lose weight there is a high chance that they will resort to unhealthy habits to do it.

If you lose ten pounds that isn't an achievement. Weight fluctuates naturally. It doesn't mean you are any healthier. It doesn't help anything in your life. It is your body changing and that is ok.

If we say that weight loss is an achievement, then people get this idea in their mind that weight gain is failure, which is not true and leads to mental health issues.

Also, I don't find complimenting someone on weight loss very productive. When I lost 20 pounds in two weeks from starving myself (the only method of weight loss that has ever worked for me), people complimenting my new size only made me want to not eat for longer. Also, lot of the time, people lose weight for no reason.weight fluctuates. And again, it doesn't indicate being healthier in the slightest.

When overweight, losing weight (in correct way of course, not starving) is healthy. When underweight losing weight is extremely dangerous. There are two sides to this of course. Although I am talking purely about losing weight when overweight.

Being overweight is cause of many health issues. Doesn't automatically mean unhealthy, BUT it's very often cause of deaseases or at least some smaller issues (like knee or back pains). There is a big correlation between fat and unhealthy, you can't just decide to ignore it. It extremely increases many health risks, therefore it is not good for you in way too many ways. I don't ask you to take my word for it, there are actual researches to back me up.

1. Here is what World's health organization has to say about obesity (https://www.who.int/topics/obesity/en/): "Overweight and obesity are major risk factors for a number of chronic diseases, including diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and cancer."

2. Or an actual paper backed up with facts and researches about obesity: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.who.int/medicines/areas/priority_medicines/BP6_18Obesity.pdf&ved=2ahUKEwjHsNTKi-3oAhWysaQKHexoDvIQFjAEegQIAxAB&usg=AOvVaw1uJdtN8o-93kPpsp2Nw0Wc&cshid=1587045509403

Quoting just first sentence: "Obesity is a chronic and multi-factorial disease and one of the most important causes of morbidity and premature mortality worldwide."

- please note, they actually classify obesity as desease here. So please tell me how being overweight is not unhealthy and why shouldn't we consider getting better and achievement? When you get out of depression, or even more, beat cancer, you don't consider it a win? I do.

I understand your way of thinking. But you can either get better, or have a high self esteem. The second one might actually kill you if you have bigger overweight. I am also sorry you had trouble losing weight, but starving is not a solution. You need to consult doctors and other professionals about safe diet, quality exercise etc. In extreme cases when it is extremely hard to lose weight, there are surgical solutions here (but should be used only when there is no other way as last resort). I do not promote it, at all. I believe that everyone can lose weight with will and some help.

You are talking about mental issues, indeed, that is a real problem. But you don't solve those by saying "I won't try, cause I will fail and then get depression". Just imagine if we were doing everything this way. "I won't apply for that job, because I might not get it.". And how about those people that tried, succeeded and made their lives better? Or better, it helped them with mental issues and self esteem? And when you do fail, there is where the precessional (and also friends and family) steps in.

Sorry for the long post, I just needed to write it :)

Thin privilege is a scary thing

like, why are you starving urself, thats not cute eat a samwich

I am eating. I am eating like a person of my gender, age and height should. It's not thin privilege not to be fat and unhealthy. You are just refusing to participate in normal lifestyle.

fandomshitpostsandmore

If you have to sacrifice your mental health and deny your hunger cues to be thin, then you are not meant to be thin.

Nor is it healthy for you to be thin.

Your body is perfect just the way it is, and you should listen to your body when it tells you when or what to eat.

Nooooo. If you are overweight, don't listen to your body. You basically programmed it to crave more than it should. You programmed it to crave unhealthy things. So no, don't give your body everything it wants, give it what it needs.

Weight loss isn't a victory. Weight loss isn't a positive goal, or a "happy" accident. Celebrating weight loss is a product of diet culture, even if you werent dieting to lose weight. If you say you are body positive but are ecstatic about losing weight, diet culture still has a hold over how you perceive people's bodies and the fat on them.

Losing weight is positive and great achievement when it's healthy. If you were overweight and lost weight, cheers to you. Ignore all these idiots with insecurities and just continue to do your thing.

You know someone is an asshole when they respond to a post pushing for acceptance with “I don’t hate fat people BUT it’s only okay as long as they’re healthy.”

For one thing, you can be healthy and fat, but even if a fat person isn’t healthy, don’t you still think it’s more important for them to have high self-esteem than to hate their body?

Why are you pushing the idea that being fat is inherently unhealthy and that it’s more important for fat people to be concerned with being skinny healthy than to love themselves?

No, you can't be healthy and fat in long term. Ask any reasonable doctor.

I don't think it is important to have high self esteem. I think it is more important to get help first. Then you can also work on self esteem.

Being fat is inherently unhealthy. There are hundreds of studies of that (which fat acceptance very much ignores). And you probably gonna say "But I am fiine". Yup, sure, now you can be perfectly fine. But wait 10 years and see for yourself. Or get pregnant and see how that is gonna feel. Or how about if you need some surgery? What would be the healing process afterwards? Soon your knees and ankles start to hurt while only walking, your heart will be in higher danger if heart attack. And so on...

PSA: Stop pushing diet-culture and weight loss onto children!

Dieting and talking about weight loss both lead to increased risk of developing obesity and eating disorders.

Nothing good comes of pushing diet-culture and fatphobia on children.

So just…don’t, okay?

What is this? Look, if my child has a weight issue, I am going to restrict unhealthy food and yes, maybe Ithey would need to go on diet. But stop using it as this terrible thing. If done right, diets are great way to pose weight and remain healthy (or get healthy). If that is what children need in order to be healthy, then yes, they need to diet for a while.

Cause that curvy woman mentioned is not really really a "curvy body type" but probably an obese person that needs help not praise.

Well, it could be a problem. First of all, he would feel bad that you are unhealthy. And second of all, it is unfortunate, but he can stop being attracted to you. It's not his fault, we can't really control who we are attracted to (and there is also a chance you wouldn't be attracted to him if he gained a lot of weight). So stop this bullshit and just eat a fuckin salat

“You’re fatphobic!!!!!1!”

Not at all! I see fat people as people as people who are unhealthy. I want to help them. I’m very glad that tumblr is at least sick of the “fat acceptance” movement.

theconcealedweapon

Fat people who don’t hate themselves can focus directly on a healthy lifestyle of eating nutritious meals and exercising.

Fat people who hate themselves are more likely to think “What’s the point?” and not even try.

So even if the statement “fat is unhealthy” were 100% true, hating fat people does nothing to promote health.

This seems like a very good post. Approved. Don't shame people and also don't give up trying and stop finding excuses :) you can do it
