Curvy vs Fat

Bandora

Is it just me or is everything now curvy vs fat? I am tired of people now making excuses to be fat. No one will admit that being fat is unhealthy, which it is. I completely understand that we need to be proud of ourselves and take care of our appearances no matter what our weight is. I have been there and it was miserable finding clothes and feeling normal. I constantly hear fat people ( men and women) say they are healthy and they exercise. However, I know some of these people are maybe strolling a few days of the week. They are loading up on sugary drinks and then toss around their 'thyroid" issues.These are the same people who act high and mighty when they hear I had WLS. They may be lucky and the negative health problems have not hit them yet.

 

It just seems there is so much backlash now against WLS and people are being told to love themselves at every size. What I see happening is people are carrying an additional 50+ lbs and blaming it on genetics etc...which is not necessarily true. I do not believe in fat shaming ( since I was fat most of my life) but to take this " I am curvy" attitude is not healthy for anyone. People need to be honest and understand that when you are obese you are not curvy. It is not desirable and it is not good for your health. Period. No one should starve and be a bone but everyone should strive to be the best they can be. A healthy weight varies for everyone's size and frame.

 

I just feel sad when I see young girls shopping in the Plus size womens section when they are only 10yrs old. That is just awful
