She looks perfectly fine, she is lightyears away from being pathologically obese. She herself, but also you, by calling her fat in that picture, are actually both promoting an unhealthy message to young women about what kind of body shape you have to achieve. So that's the main problem I have with her post then. No, promoting being fat as the healthy alternative is a terrible idea. Labelling the woman in this "after" photo as "Fat" with a capital F is even more problematic, and that she calls herself that is not a good sign.
This. The "after" photo is hardly representative of an unhealthy degree of "fat", and labeling it as such sets unrealistic and dangerous expectations.
