Not even three years old and obese is just so sad

Maybe it’s just me preferring froyo over ice-cream but like can some people just enjoy something that’s ‘not too sweet’ without it being diet culture (as if most froyo places don’t offer a ton of toppings). And some places are sugar-free, so diabetics can have it comfortably too

Got recipes, fitness tips, or questions on health and fitness?

Do you love fatlogic and want to tell the world?

Have you lost weight and want to tell us how you did it?

This is the time and place.

The individual in discussion is 5’0” or 5‘1“ and 100 pounds at either height is a perfectly normal BMI.

Fatlogic in real life getting you down?

Is your family telling you you're looking too thin?

Are people at work bringing you donuts?

Did your beer drinking neighbor pat his belly and tell you "It's all muscle?"

If you hear one more thing about starvation mode will you scream?

Let it all out. We understand.

In response to a post about kids clothing sizes. Size 14 for a 12 year old girl is ridiculous actually.

Its kind of scary how we have normalised this so much. I really do wish her daughter well.

Especially the bit about “all the things people on my mom’s side of the family have osteoporosis” which brings me flashbacks to the “thin people have a huge risk for hip fractures” argument. Actual malnourishment can cause bone issues (e.g., low calcium) but it might be something genetic that that part of the person’s family are more prone to regardless of weight.

Fat Acceptance can't make up their mind about if fatness looks childlike or mature, if kids are naturally chubbier or if getting fat is a mark of adulthood. Might be time for another conference, hm? Throw the dart at the board again? And then this one had to say that the problem with beauty standards isn't that they're pedophilic, because there's nothing wrong with pedophilia anyway! It's -misic to suggest so, in fact!

Welcome to Sanity Saturday.

This is a thread for discussing facts about health, fitness and weight loss.

No rants or raves please. Let's keep it science-y.

Have some progress pictures you'd like to share?

Want to tell us about the highs and lows of your fitness journey?

Just discovered this sub and you're ready to tell us how awesome we are?

This is the time and this is the place.

If "famine mode" existed why would people die of starvation?
