It shouldn't be encouraged however that doesn't make it completely not 'ok'. However, if you're fat or obese for a reason other than genetics don't come crying and act like a victim when you have to pay for 2 seats in a plane and stuff like that.

Overweight is OK, but being fat to the point of medical complications and hindrance in every-day life activities is a big problem, especially in the United States.

Accepting yourself is great, but accepting your problems is the real problem here. People are just blind to that for the sake of "self-acceptance".

The girl in that video is fine and I don't think it's wrong to have some extra weight but if you're obese and there's not a medical reason for it (such as a thyroid problem) then it's very unhealthy, not natural and you should do something about it.

Well personally i dont think too thin is a good look either.

I don't think its okay if you cant get up from your couch, but if you have some thickness who cares?

On average people who are mildly overweight actually have similar lifespans to people of normal weight... It's mainly at the extremes ends of being overweight and underweight that lowers mortality.

I didn't say mildly!

No

[Wafflecakes]

Yes. It is your life.

Anyone who says otherwise is just a closet bigot.

Meghan Trainor is overweight, not fat, and there's a difference. I think keeping healthy is crucial, but for the references sake, Meghan isn't an unhealthy weight. You're doing your body good being alive, and being smart enough to keep your diet to the right guideline is fine. I'm getting 10,000+ steps in a day and I'm eating 3 balanced meals and burning calories just by living, and I'm at a healthy weight, but I'm not built up or anything. And if someone was happy otherwise, then so be it.

So, TL;DR - yes, it is.

As an ex fattie, I say no. Unless it truly is a defect you cannot control, like a rare disease

But I swear every bitch wants to be like, "OMG, I HAVE THYROID DISEASE" but then they be eaten takeaway/sweets 25/8 and doing 0 excercise

[Xtinafan 99]

No. Most people are fat because of their own poor diets and lack of exercise. The only exception is if they have some disease that makes them that way, or they have a naturally larger frame.

[Kim Kardashian]

Being a few pounds overweight isn't a big deal.
You should strive to have a healthy weight but that's purely because it's beneficial for your health.

[Ale-Alejandro]

no

[Spring Breakers]

I think its okay to be plus-sized as long as it isn't detrimental to your health.

[medoner]

people are such hypocrite i swear they be getting all worked up when someone says "Being fat is gross and unhealthy blah blah" but then they're the one skinny shaming and saying how being skinny is ugly that guys don't like skinny bitches and "you should go eat a burger" and that's ok ? ...... like have a seat. If you don't wanna be judge for being fat then don't go around putting skinny people down

[TipToe]

The 'genetic' thing is really an excuse, you can search for any controlled study of groups of people put on some restrictive diet, with or without exercise regime. They will slim down and lose how much weight they want, no exceptions.. Some take longer than others, but effectively anyone who's healthy and take care of what and how much they eat is going to lose the unwanted fat. It goes down on a matter of bad habits, for the vast majority of people. If it's OK or not, who am i to judge.

[EloiseheartsRiRi]

NO

[winebaldo]

No. And yes it affects other lives when you are in public transport and you can't sit because the is some people with overweight that is occupying almost two places like seriously and then they just says its my body... blah blah.
And I understand when it's a genetic thing, but when I know that it's just because you have nothing to do, and you're proud for make people not sitting

[Gygfb]

Not going to say anything.

[Alexis Neiers]

no for the most part.

[Mekitor]

Nope.
