“If someone is overweight because of diet, not simply a lack of exercise, you’re excusing them from eating properly.”

Since when is someone else’s health any of your business? What are you, the health police? A person’s lifestyle choices and health are their own goddamn business and no one should be shamed for choices they are making with their own goddamn lives. Even if someone is making unhealthy choices, it’s none of your fucking business.

Pretty much, yeah!!! <3

You know what’s really a laugh? When I was 92lbs and everyone was telling me how good I looked and I looked so thin and wonderful! I was a fucking anorexic and that really added fuel to the fire. When I gained the weight back everyone was like oh wow you’ve filled out, oh you’re bigger now. Nevermind that I felt a billion times better. Whatever, you really can’t tell someone’s health from the outside. I mean, as a relevant example, I work at a bike shop and bigger customers come in all the time after getting a bike and tell me how much they love biking (they exercise and are still larger like omfg!) Some go like 20-30 miles on their days off and I’m smaller and barely can go 15! If that isn’t a good enough example then whatever. I’m in a ranting mood today.

Thank you for sharing! Rant away, my dear…What you’re saying is super relevant and important and needs to be shared if we want to get people understanding where we’re coming from. You’re awesome.
