"I may be fat, but I beat my eating disorder"

[Thumpalumpacus]

You, and she needs a sense of perspective, she's does not have a particularly unhealthy weight on the "after" picture.

I wouldn't say she necessarily does on the before picture either.

One of my main issues is none of what she claims is supported by doctors, and the general message that fat can be healthy is a dangerous one. Just as dangerous as the pro-anorexia messages.

I think what's really happening is the word "fat" isn't very clear, and we each have different meanings assigned to it. It seems you assign the meaning over "over ideal weight" -- which may well be the case here -- while, speaking for myself, I connote "fat" to mean approaching obesity, but not quite there.

This woman doesn't look fat, to me:



She may not be society's ideal of feminine perfection, but that is a social construct, not a medical opinion.
