She's lived with these people for around 5 weeks now, shes grown to feel that she can be confident with her body around them without them judging her as cruelly as people on here do, nothing strange or wrong with that :shrug:

I acknowledge that Lateysha is confident and comfortable with her weight. But that is where the problem lies. I bet she would not take any advice from anyone regarding the health hazards of being obese. She might be cuddly now, but in a few years time it will be varicose veins, diabetes, heart disease, moles and fungal skin infections.
Oh what the hell, she looks revolting and should really not wear those swim suits.

Definitely nothing 'wrong' with that, but it is definitely strange :conf: Sorry, you really do not go from wearing a bigbag to cover up to pretty much dancing round in a thong...even in 5 weeks :D

Maybe you don't but some people can grow comfortable in situations like that. Everyone is different.

Well said Kaz...:wavey:

I don't find her attractive at all but she looks much better with clothes on if i'm honest.

Hmm. We had that Bianca like 2 years ago Don't get much more confident than her :laugh:

But I do agree with the point generally

Mark my words when she does a catch up on big brother,she'll loose the weight and have a exercise DVD.sound familiar??
She's a pretty girl but health wise,over weight.

The picking on HMs for their size is the saddest thing about this site. Its good to see people standing against Body Shaming for Lateshya but where was it for Jack last year? (pie face)??? Or Gemma Collins?

Truth is she is beautiful because she has charisma - she is entertaining to watch. Judge people by their personalities. Its rather sad there are some bitter nasty unpleasant people on here that some people act all minions around when there is no need.

Lateysha looks fine. Anyhow, this is a popularity competition based on personality. Falling within a dictated body type range doesn't score points.

It is true that she can't dance though! But I just find that hilarious, not a problem at all. The fact that she's a dork is really charming.

Erm, I would prefer to judge her on looks as its more positive :p She is a stunning woman and I think her body is fine (though she should maybe buy clothes that fit her). Definite 9/10

Personality though... I give a 5

I think she is beautiful and If I was a lad Id ask her out!! There is something about her!!

Clapping with the others Kazanne....:clap1::clap1:

As a few others have said, Jason's comment was nothing to do with her weight.

Lateysha could be round as a ball or skinny as a stick it wouldn't change my opinion of her....id still dislike her because she's got no class, no style, no sense and no manners.

Yes, I don't like Jason at all, but I have to agree- i took it as a comment about how much more happy Lateysha was, how much her mood had picked up and how much more energy she had after having a cake. I hope it wasn't an underhand dig about Lateysha's weight.

I thought it was a general comment about what a difference it makes to the way people feel after having a little treat, following a limited diet of rice, etc.

i will repost this when Alex wins:hee:

I agree, Adam. They have seen her 24/7 now for 5 weeks, so she must have had to get into the shower and undress infront of them numerous times, and she will also be aware that the cameras will have seen and have potentially have shown all there is to see. I think she's probably got to the point where she's thinking 'what the hell?' now.

I also think she must have been on a high having been on rations and then had all the treats imaginable available to her, so she's just let go of her inhibitions a bit.

I'm not really understanding why that would seem so suspicious.

I think I can answer the bin bag thing because I used to be exactly the same way when I was bigger a few years ago (I've lost almost 5 stone since) but when I was bigger people in school used to openly mock my weight and I went away with my parents on holiday with my cousins and they're just a little older but they were really perfectly shaped and I was SO ashamed of being bigger than them I wore a t shirt in the pool for the first week and a half but by the end of the two weeks I guess my confidence kicked in and I just wore my normal one peice...because I had been with people who didn't care about my weight.

I guess Lateysha sort of felt the same to begin with, the other girls are really quite skinny compared to her so she likely felt a bit shy being the bigger girl just like I did but after a while she's probably gained the confidence and realized they're not judging her so she's happy to walk around in bathing suits.

I think she looks good tbh, she carries her weight well.

Tbh both the people defending her and the ones attacking her for her weight are both being a bit OTT though.

She should be being judged purely on her personality which imo is someone that likes to have fun, and can be mildly amusing sometimes, but her negatives are that she does like to gang up on other Housemates when she's angry, and she does get overly defensive.

I have no problem with how she looks (apart from showing too much boob, which comes across as tacky) It's her personality I have a problem with, that and her foul mouth.

I prefer girls to wear clothes anyway.

I know that it's the woman's choice what she wears, and I'm not saying to turn her into a Muslim, but I do prefer a woman's body to be left a mystery than for all of us to see.
