realtalk how does someone let themselves get this large

I am definitely a fatty, fat from childhood, maxed out around 200 lbs, had mobility issues and auto-immune diseases and hormonal issues my entire life, but sitting in the 160s now from very strict diet planning alone. Like how does someone just become so out of tune with their body??? It reminds me of the show I didn't know I was pregnant a little bit tbh

anyway i am hella jealous of her self confidence, i still hate wearing a bathing suit and i am almost normal bmi now

bmi is bullshit you know that right

how did I know someone was going to bring this up... it's still an okish way to gauge your progress. Obviously its cutoffs are going to vary between people, and if you're built like a rugby player it's not going to the accurate for you, but if you're pretty SOLIDLY parked in the obese category, it's not bmi, it's you

The obese category begins so quickly and overweight is so small, that no, it's frankly bullshit and I have not seen a legitimate medical school still teaching it as useful.

>SOLIDLY parked in the obese category

The problem is that this fluctuates so much from person to person there is no "solidly" because of that unless you're way, way out in the left field. The BMI is actually pretty condemned.

Carrying more than 250 pounds around, unless you're The Rock, is pretty universally not healthy

no, it isn't. stop trying to make this a ~fact, because no matter how many times you say it, it won't be true. bmi is fucking fine. just because bodybuilders don't fit in to it, it doesn't mean it's suddenly inaccurate for fatasses too. if you fall in to the overweight/obese category for your height, then i'm sorry, you're overweight/obese. just because you don't think you "look" or feel obese doesn't mean you suddenly aren't. if we all went by "what looks fat" then we'd all be 300lb lards who only draw the line of "fat" at 600lbs, because hey, that's what fat REALLY looks like!

bmi actually doesn't account for a lot including body shape, skeletal build, etc. it is literally just your height and weight and accounts for nothing other than that. it's bunk.

your skeleton doesn't weigh 140lbs. there's no such thing as being "big boned," there is a normal human skeleton under all of that jiggle. your body shape doesn't mean you have to be overweight. you can be a pear and still an acceptable weight in bmi. none of the things you listed means you have to be overweight or obese. bmi has a pretty damn good range of "normal"

you literally do not know medicine or anatomy

anything to justify your concern trolling and fatphobia

oh really tell me where i'm wrong then

that's why everyone who is the same height wears the same size hat, right? because skeletons are all uniform?

I don't know about the rest of you, but I got my skeleton from the the clearance section after Halloween.

show me a fat skeleton

i'll wait

obv they made the conscious decision to gain that weight anon pls

could be hormonal, or disease-related. could be depression-driven or an eating disorder. you wanna personally ask them or what?

hormones don't make you gain that much weight tho. i had fucked-up hormones for most of my life and when i finally got them under control i only lost a total of about 20 lbs.

and your experience = all experiences right

my sister also has hormone inbalances that depending on whether she's on treatment can make her gain or lose a few dress sizes. my point to thread op being that sometimes it's not a matter of "letting yourself go", there are factors outside of a person's control that can lead to weight gain.

20 lbs is a few dress sizes. i went down three sizes when I lost that weight.

honestly anon i never asked my sister the exact amount she's gained/lost, just going off what I have seen and how she's expressed herself re: her appearance.

my main point which you are losing sight of is that, when she is on treatment for her hormones, all the good healthy actions she does to take care of her body actually works! and when she's not, no matter what she does her body won't let go of a single pound bc her hormones are telling her that she can't afford to lose weight. that's all i meant by including it, more as a general commentary than something specific to this particular individual.

no

that isn't how biology works

We get it, you're personally offended that fat people exist and are happy because of your own issues.

there really is nothing more pathetic than self-hating fatties who also hate other fatties

true, i do hate myself so
