I figure since I'm fat, I do body weight workouts and heavy lifting at the same time. #fatprivilege #bodyweight plus 20 lbs (weighted vest!) I ran a mile, did 10 #dips and 10 #squats (5 times), then ran another mile. #movement #430 #lafitness (at LA Fitness Jersey Village)

Fat Privilege is being born in a place and time where food is so abundant you can literally gorge yourself while others starve. All the while complaining of the social inconveniences you suffer as consequence of your own choices.

Fat Privilege

Fat privilege is coming from a family wealthy enough to support your fat lifestyle

The sugar police

Ever get unsolicited nutrition advice from a morbidly obese person? I went out to breakfast with my GF and her mum and this was the second time we went out. My GF needs about 2/3 the amount of sleep I seem to, so I'm sleepy when I stay with her, so both times I binge on coffee and since I'm always on keto I use splenda or other zero calorie sweatier. 

The first breakfast I thought I noticed her mum look at me putting splenda in my coffee. She didn't say anything about it, though but I sensed she might mention it. The second time we went out for breakfast, I guess she was more comfortable around me and the second I grabbed the first yellow packet I get "you know those are bad for you, right?" and I politely question her and her argument is the generic 'it's not natural, and it has chemicals blah blah' you've heard this vague BS from countless simpletons who worship 'conventional wisdom' and think the FDA, nutritionists and science in general has been paid off by corporations who want to poison everyone.

Hold whatever bullshit views you want, but it really bugs me when people feel like they are evangelists for their ignorant opinions. I never looked at her giant presence and told her 'you know, being morbidly obese is not good for you' Like she may have thought somehow I was unaware of the idea that "artificial sweeteners are bad for you, because my Facebook feed said so" -- Does she really think I've never heard about this? This person is about 400 pounds, if I'd have to guess; she has no business giving anyone nutrition advice, unless I'm trying to put on some serious mass.

Fat Privilege is Getting Special Treatment

I was at Wal-Mart, where they have those little motorized scooters.  I decided I wanted to ride on one since I was tired and didn't feel like walking.  I had been walking all day, I thought I deserved a break.  Apparently, the employees didn't agree.  I was told I wasn't allowed to use the scooters without a physical disability and, even after explaining that I had seen many people bigger than I do the same thing, I was asked to return the scooter.

Fat Privilege is Buying Bras

I was shopping with a heavier friend of mine, and she was telling me how difficult it was to find a 42C and how no one sells them and how if she wanted one she'd have to pay a fortune.  As a petite DD, I said I knew how she felt.  No one sells cheap bras for thin women with big breasts, most assume that if someone has breasts that size they're either fat or fake.  Of course, we found her 42C on sale for around $20, but mine costed over $50.

Fat Privilege is not paying an arm and a leg for bras.

Fat Privilege is Going Shopping

I was with a heavier friend of mine, and she had decided to go to a plus sized store.  This store had several cute outfits that I would have loved to wear but, being petite, I couldn't fit into any of their sizes.  When I asked if it was possible to get a smaller size, I was asked to leave!  I'm never going back their, they were so rude to discriminate against me just because I'm thin.
