Dear fat people
 
Is this fat shaming or a public information film?


RichardG 08-09-2015 02:26 PM

I saw this yesterday, I could only make it through a few minutes. She was trying way too hard to be funny and it was irritating me too much. :laugh: I don't think her intention with the video was to 'raise awareness' or had any good intentions, it's just a silly attempt to cause controversy and some views for her YouTube channel. There's better ways to promote a healthy lifestyle than nonsense like this.

"I can get away from you by walking at a reasonable pace" I died

I don't know why people would hate her for saying it how it is. People who are overweight are risking their lives.

I saw this on fbook and it made me laugh she did make a good point...ish.

Agree with all of this. :clap1:

Not only does she seem like a pretty dickish person, her attempts at being zany and funny are just cringy as hell. :unsure:

You hate her for trying to save lives and then wish death on her?

You think she's trying to save lives by abusing people who already probably have massive issues... and that she's not just trying to draw attention to her stupid self? LOL... Okaaaayyy....

She wouldn't die from an overactive thyroid... but she would get enormously fat. Karma.

Trying to save lives? By making fun of fat people? :umm2: All she is going to achieve with this is make people feel bad about themselves- that's not the way to solve this problem. It will just lower people's self-worth and confidence, and what's the point of trying to lose weight and prolong your life if you think society views you as worthless?

Exactly, I don't know why people think the best way to help larger people lose weight is to abuse them, usually its down to many other psychological issues rather than "They like to eat pies LAWL". Shaming overweight people just leads to them feeling worse.

Amy Jade 08-09-2015 11:26 PM

Honestly I've been the fat girl, admittedly I was never obese but I was overweight and put up with being called fat related names in high school and this girl is not being productive, shaming a person with weight issues does not work, I started to lose weight when I reached the age of 15 and I did it because I had low confidence and because I wanted to be able to dress how I wanted - calling people jabba and stuff is just nasty and she did it just for views.

Just from my perspective I would personally much rather pile the weigh back on than be a vapid attention seeker with **** hair like her.

I am no small man. i wish i was sitting next to her on that plane. i would have made her miserable. I'd make sure to take the armrest, and spread my legs, and make myself as goddam comfortable as i pleased sitting next to her. if she thinks she can make others uncomfortable by talking against other people then i'd have no problem making her feel uncomfortable.

**** this loud mouth *****. Enjoy your 15 minutes you anne coulter wanna-be.

canadians really can't do proper comedy. the only good canadian comedians are children's comedians, like jim carey and mike myers.

Mystic Mock 09-09-2015 06:08 AM

These people that hate overweight people must live really sad lives like this woman on Youtube.

kirklancaster 09-09-2015 06:10 AM

Talent-less non-entities have always gained fame and fortune by being 'controversial' - be it worthless slags making sex tapes then 'leaking' them onto the net, or humourless bitches like this. She is best ignored.

Ashley. 09-09-2015 07:40 AM

Anyway she said in the video that she's talking about majorly obese people, not fat people.

If you're fat then fair do's but if you're obese, then you need to do something about that and if putting it on a plate that they will die if they don't make a change to their diet will make them want to change, then I'm all for it. Lives should not be wasted. There are so many people who die young and aren't allowed to live a full life and these people are just letting their lives go to waste and I feel strongly about it.

Jay. 09-09-2015 07:55 AM

The fact that fat people can annoy people so much makes me laugh, like leave it to them, if they want to sort their own life out, it's up to them. I wouldn't make a comment about, say, someone's spots, saying that they should get them fixed. It's up to them to go to the doctors, I can't do anything about it. Yes the lifestyle may be bad for them, but it doesn't effect me at all, I might sound selfish but idk how to explain it tbh.

Stuff like this wouldn't help a fat person anyway, it would just make them feel even more depressed about needing to lose weight...

and looking at the types of videos she uploads, they are all just the same lmao, bore off.

I'm not trying to insult them I just want to help them. I'm a natural carer. When I look at someone who is obese (not fat), I don't laugh, I feel sorry for them. That's just me :shrug:

Oh no, that wasn't about you and I get what you mean. I meant when people make horrible comments or jokes like she did.

Ammi 09-09-2015 08:12 AM

..her referring to obese people doesn't make it any better though..I'm sure that they know that 'they're eating themselves to death' but are unable to prevent it from happening because food/eating has become their coping ability and then they feel worse and worse and worse and worse about themselves as their weight increases and so it goes one etc...as if it was all so easy as to say..well just stop eating../just eat to an anorexic../stop drinking to an alcoholic../..stop worrying to someone who suffers anxiety attacks..etc...


..maybe with people through no fault of their own because they've not learned any positive coping skills in life../have not been able to get to that pace for whatever reason...should be anorexic shamed/depression shamed/panic/anxiety attack shamed/insomniac shamed and etc, etc..because that's only right really, they need to pull themselves together...for someone who is so physically attractive herself, then I wonder why she's not more happy in herself and just gets on with her beautifulness rather than feeling the need to make people who already feel bad about themselves, feel even worse..as if they're juts lazy old greedy old people...hmmmm, maybe she doesn't feel that good about herself either and that somehow makes her feel better...either that or she's the dumbest person on earth and thinks that lowering people's self esteem even further will result in raising it...

Aw this is nice Ammi. :love: When you put it like that, it's no wonder. But sometimes you get obese people who don't show any interest in even trying to lose weight.. like that program "too fat to work". Those people are the ones who make me angry, the people who aren't worried about their own health when you have numerous overweight people who are trying so hard to be healthy. Maybe I'm just nosy...

lostalex 09-09-2015 08:53 AM

If someone has a weight problem, it is for the close friends and family of the person to say something and offer help, not some ugly rude nasty stranger like this woman.

Your concern is cancelled out by your support of the method, I'm afraid.

Kizzy 09-09-2015 10:18 AM

It's kind of like those people who sympathise with those with debilitating medical conditions then scream 'get a job!' at anyone on benefits.

Suze 09-09-2015 10:20 AM

She is an attention seeker. Why is she getting so worked up about other peoples needs to deal with their own issues when there are far worse things going on in the world. What an irritating bint she is. She looks like she needs to calm down and get a life away from flaunting herself on you tube or such.

Livia 09-09-2015 12:44 PM

Who on here would insist genuinely disabled people should "get a job"? I'd be willing to bet a month's salary that the answer is none. The people who should be getting a job is the able-bodied long-term unemployed.

Kizzy 10-09-2015 09:12 AM

Anyhoo back to the point.


More than 200,000 people in the UK are dying prematurely because of social inequalities that risk becoming entrenched, a top doctor has said.

Sir Michael Marmot, who had advised the coalition on the link between health and wealth, warned that research revealed a stark “social gradient” emerging in Britain.

The poor not only die on average seven years sooner than the rich, but they can expect to face becoming disabled 17 years earlier. The middle classes in the country had life expectancies of eight years less than the very richest.

However, it was in the field of education where Marmot said the research vividly showed how unfair life was becoming. “If everybody had the same mortality of those with a university education, then we could prevent 202,000 premature deaths of people aged 75 and under each year.”

“If this was caused by a pollutant, there would be people on the streets saying ‘stop it now’. The irony is that the cause is pin-pointable. It is the inequalities in the conditions [in which] we are born, grow, live, work and age, and it’s damaging the health of us all. It is costing us 550 lives a day in the UK alone.”

In his new book, The Health Gap, he argues that those who blame lifestyles miss the point. “Over 30 years, smoking levels have declined while obesity has soared. Have we become more responsible when it comes to smoking and less responsible when it comes to obesity. No.

I have to say I disagree with him here I feel we are less responsible when it comes to obesity, I don't even think it's a social inequality thing it's just ignorance... only we can control what we put in our bodies.

Addiction is a separate issue, not everyone who drinks is an alcoholic and by the same token not all that over eat are food addicts. It's as patronising to suggest to they are all either sad or mad.
The message may be blunt, but for some that may be the tough love approach they need? The softly softly approach can't work for everyone.
Look at the success of boot camps for fitness, being pushed, shouted at or challenged is the catalyst to rethinking eating and/or exercise.

lostalex 10-09-2015 10:35 AM

I want to hire Tonya Harding to smash her knee caps, just to see how long it took this canadian moron to have some sympathy for disabled people.
