First off, lets talk about the blatant disrespect. I posted something positive, and what did I get in return? Attacks, insults, and accusations. I've remained civil and respectful in my responses, but the abuse keeps coming.
Now, let me be explicit: I am not lying. My message isn't about denying reality; it's about promoting respect and compassion. Ive backed my stance with input from psychologists and medical professionals this isn't just my opinion; it's evidence-based.
To those who believe that hurling insults is a valid weight loss strategy: Seriously? Do you honestly think calling someone "fat" is the magic bullet for shedding pounds? If it were that easy, we wouldnt be having this conversation. Fat-shaming doesn't motivate it destroys self-esteem and perpetuates harmful stereotypes.Do you think people haven't been called fat all their lives. Oh well since they are still carrying that extra weight it doesn't look like it fucking worked for them.
For those who insist on reducing individuals to a number on a scale: Wake up. Weight does not define a person's worth. If you can't contribute positively then perhaps it's time to reevaluate your approach.
About 4 or 5 months ago, I created the Weight Loss Sociala space on this message board dedicated to discussing weight loss in a positive and uplifting manner. The core message I've been promoting is simple yet important: regardless of the numbers on the scale, the individuals behind those numbers are human beings who deserve respect and understanding.
Let's draw a parallel here. When someone has the flu, we don't label them as "the flu." We recognize that it's an illness that can be treated and overcome. Similarly, with the right support and treatment, issues related to weight can also be managed and improved.
Contrary to what some may believe, calling people names or labeling them as "fat" is not a magical solution to weight loss. I've personally put in the effort and dedication, fueled by the encouragement of others who selflessly supported me along the way. And let me tell you, that kind of support is far more powerful than any insult thrown around.
The Weight Loss Social isn't just about shedding poundsit's about embracing a journey of self-improvement and empowerment. It's about lifting each other up, celebrating victories, and supporting one another through challenges.
And to those who persist in negativity: This isn't the place for it. Respect is non-negotiable. And to those who have walked this path with me, thank you for your unwavering support. Together, we're proving that kindness and determination can truly make a difference.

There's nothing positive about trying to change word definitions.
