I think she's overweight, but to me she'd need to be heavier than that to be categorized as fat. I think at this point her larger concern would be muscle definition, but even that can be misleading. I'm about 40-45 lbs overweight, but I have pretty clear muscle definition in my arms and legs (yay, genetics!). If I cut that by 20-25 lbs I'd be in pretty good health (would require regular cardio and strength training, for example) but still be fat by some standards (and clearly overweight).
I'm more concerned with what appears to be her belief that she can either be near death from overwork and starvation rations or "fat and healthy." Just one cupcake a day, sweetheart... ONE CUPCAKE A GODDAMN DAY.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
