Hours without any food? Homie that’s what you’re supposed to do.

As someone in recovery for alcoholism, it is extremely offensive to hear her say “I often wish I were an alcoholic.”

"I would go HOURS without food" omg thats terrible. Sometimes i go hours without food, or even a half a day without sleep, or 12 whole hours without seeing the sun. Surely none of thay can be healthy for anyone.

They really think feeling hunger pangs is the same thing as starvation 🙃🙃

Did this woman really just say you can’t eat yourself to fat??? How does one develop this degree of self delusion? It’s genuinely mind boggling.

She has type 4 - which is making it up as you go along

“….who is 25, I believe” my jaw dropped! She looks so much older oh my god

Three meals a day is a social construct, not a human necessity.

I feel like that format of one person talking and everyone else just being there to slowly nod as you are talking is peak 20's

I've met plenty of small people who are unhealthy but Ive never met an obese person that is healthy.

"Hours without any food." Just crazy. Does she sleep through the night or does she set an alarm every two hours?

9:14 'I don't present underweight' ?? gorl cannot even bring herself to say 'I'm not underweight' hahaha

“I was going HOURS without eating any food!” Yeah… that’s called sleeping.

I think in their case they have a severe food addiction, not anorexia. By labeling it anorexia, they justify their lack of proper dieting. "What if I try to be more disciplined with my meals and I accidentally end up undereating severely for months on end" is the narrative in their head, even though this has never occured in their lives.

Okay, so here’s the thing. A person with BED doesn’t necessarily binge all the time. You can also alternate periods of restriction and periods of bingeing. I am in recovery for BED. I also once went 10 days without eating at the height of my disorder. That didn’t make me have ana. I think there’s a big misunderstanding around this, especially since the whole Tess Holiday thing. Going without food for an extended time doesn’t necessarily mean you have ana if you also have periods of bingeing. That is BED.

" "Type 3 diabetes” is a term some people use to describe Alzheimer’s disease. Some scientists proposed the term because they believe insulin dysregulation in the brain causes dementia.

However, type 3 diabetes is not an officially recognized health condition. The American Diabetes Association and other major health organizations do not list Alzheimer’s disease as a type of diabetes within their classification."

“Diabetes has been weaponized against fat people” Girl! When my doctor diagnosed me with Type 2 Diabetes I knew it was time to take control of my weight. The doctor didn’t shame me or make me feel bad. She was firm about losing weight but hopeful.  Obesity is a risk factor, not some punishment.

I am on Wegovy for weight maintenance and it has helped keep it in check. My diabetes is in remission and I am MUCH healthier.

The irony of comparing weight loss drugs to "eugenics" when obesity-related issues are the #1 cause of death in america

"I struggled to eat a full meal" ...so she snacked all day. That's what i heard when she said that. Shes a grazer. She doesnt typically eat a full meal because shes alwsys eating snack.

"I can go hours without eating." To the Fat Activists in the video: Let me know when you can go a full week without eating. Going hours without eating is normal. Let me know when you have a complete meltdown over one grape or think 500 calories a day is too many and the idea of eating multiple times a day scares you. Let me know when you think you just ate a gazillion billion calories because you had a normal portion. Let me know when you worked out 4 hours because you ate one banana. Then - and ONLY THEN - can we talk about the possibility of a restrictive ED. And while I know they don't start off looking like me, they wind up there. Being this big means you have BINGE ED, NOT a restrictive ED.
