'YOUR Weight Loss.... Is FATPhobic! - Fat Acceptance TikTok

#FatLiberation #HealthAtEverySize

Is it okay if I lose some weight... or is it FATPhobic? We must consult the overlords themselves......

I am a woman of color, and I'm currently trying to lose weight and gain more muscle for esthetic reasons. I would LOVE for this woman to come at me and say I am somehow now a white supremacist because I am trying to look slimer 😂

I’m a proud fatphobe! I gained a couple pounds over the holidays and I’m working to lose it! Granted it’s a small amount, but I don’t want it to get any worse.

"There are lots of fat mountaineers and hikers."

When I heard that I literally said out loud, "Well yeah, in Pokemon."

Two years ago, I couldn’t walk from the couch to the bathroom without getting winded. Today, I shoveled heavy snow 6” deep onto the top of a pile as tall as me. For two hours. Without a break. And I feel great. That is what losing 80 pounds did for me. I’m near 60, so it’s never too late. Don’t let anything stop you.

if losing weight is fatphobic then so be it! i've officially lost 100lbs and i have never felt better in my life. i was 19, 250 lbs and could barely walk up the stairs to my classes and apartment without being winded and practically gasping for air. i have so much energy now and have even more motivation to continue on with this never ending journey of self love. these people are just straight delusional 😤

Mountaineering....are you effing kidding? I've been a Mountaineer for a very long time. And had gained weight over the last few years (that I'm working to get off). 6 or so years ago I was backpacking in the mountains of Washington state and a younger mid 30s obese guy had a heart attack not far from our tent sites. The amount of trauma you could see in people's eyes that had been out for a day hike and ended up giving chest compressions to a stranger while his friend wailed. Helicopter took the heart attack victim after an 1.5hrs. He died.

Obese Mountaineers are often a liability. Some can keep up but exhausted people equals accidents often. I won't do more than hiking until I'm in better shape so I don't leave in a Helicopter.

If personal weight loss is fatphobic to overweight people, then a person using their legs to walk is ableist to those who have mobility issues. Fat activists (probably) choose to walk in their daily lives, so with their logic they must be incredibly ableist. . .

Ok I am fatphobic, cool, cool. Have a good day. I want to be thin and I want to look good, these tik toks help me remember that.

I love how they call exercise “movement”

I was talking with a friend of mine over the phone who "lives in a larger body." I could hear her labored breathing over the phone as I spoke to her. If weight isn't an indicator of health, then I'm Kim Jung Un's long-lost bastard child.

A morbidly obese woman who works in the same office as me (she's in HR and I'm in IT) tells us that only men can be thin because we don't have breasts 🤦‍♂️ and we don't give birth to kids, and that any female who is thin is either still a little girl or else she has an eating disorder if she's an adult. Real women, she declares, have curves, which I suppose in her mind means obesity to the degree of morbidity. So all the thin women in our office according to her have eating disorders. As opposed to the healthy habit of gradually eating two full-size bags of kettle chips from 9am to 530pm, two or three Venti Frappuccinos, a couple of donuts, whatever it is she Grubhubs from the Chipotle every day, and four or five cans of Pepsi. Then I guess she goes home and finally stops starving herself. My point is she accuses all the rest of us of being unhealthy so that she doesn't have to confront her own negative eating (and lifestyle) habits. We always invite her to join us whenever the company does a 5 or 10k run, but she always declines even after we say some of us don't run it we just walk it casually together for fun. She also claims to work out and do 🧘‍♂️. I feel bad for her and she misses work a lot for health reasons, unsurprisingly. But yeah she's the sort who insults people who are trying to lose or have lost weight. Defeatist attitude pretty much guarantees defeat. 😔

Here is my issue with “fat phobia”. A phobia is an IRRATIONAL fear. Fear of becoming obese is rational and prudent. My brother and I have both lost significant weight, and yes… we are afraid of going back there.

God these people are so miserable. If seeing anyone improve at anything in their life makes you upset, your life is in serious need of self reflection.

[samlutz]

I hate when they say internalized whatever. It always came across to me as a way to dismiss a person's opinion when it doesn't line up with whatever they determined that person should think based on their race, sex, etc.

Before my gastric sleeve surgery I saw a psychologist who asked me why I wanted to lose weight. I told him I wanted to be hotter so I could date hot people. He laughed and said “well at least you have a motivation” and approved me for the surgery. He also mentioned lots of obese people have trauma on their past. I don’t, and he explained my obesity came from addiction, so now I’m losing weight (30kg so far) we are working on making sure I don’t replace food addiction with a different addiction. So far so good.

I realized I've lost enough that I can't hold a towel under my fat roll anymore and got really excited. I must be fat phobic. that's fine. 😅

When I was morbidly obese, I went to a circular tour of Ireland.
Boy, was I exhausted every day, cuz it involved a lot of hiking to visit all the places of interest.
I don't know how I managed to climb the Cliffs of Moher with the group, as the last one.
Elderly people outran me. 😑
But I was sweating like a pig, huffing and puffing, my legs nearly gave up.
And I was just 31.

Lol fat mountaineers. As someone who had a 50.2 bmi at the time I almost passed out from the effort of dismounting my motorcycle at the top of pikes peak 🙃. That was my catalyst for change

[amy_lola_jean]

I live in Colorado Springs and have hiked every open space here. The further back and higher up you go, the less oblivious, out-of-shape, uncaring people there are. The actual ones who DO want to get in shape will push their ways forward. You can tell.
