This is worth a watch. I don’t know that much about her, other than biggest loser, but she killed it here.
You’ll be happy to know that she is a Trump supporter who appears on Fox News often.
I don’t care because it’s not relevant to this context.
Now if she was put in charge of making national health policies I think it would be appropriate to be much more critical.

Body positivity movement got hijacked by the overweight community. The reality it origionally came about for indviduals born with birth defects or indviduals suffering from disfigurement from injuries like burn victims. OR women dealing with the psychological stress of women dealing with a mastectomy.
Let’s not get started with healthy at any weight mentality.
From what im understanding with drugs like ozempic… The whole body possitive thing is sorta becoming less of a thing as of late.

One word sums all those idiots up: DENIAL
Ironically, were you to ask all those “larger sized persons” (LOL, all these made up words crack me up…who says them but doesn’t just automically think “fatasses”?) if they thought that smoking was bad for your health, I bet all of them would agree.
This video IS difficult to watch, but I pushed through it just because I am so fascinated with all the ways these clowns lie to themselves that they are healthy and that their excess weight has not negatively affected their lives. She should have asked them “If there was a fire right now, and we had to run up (we’ll make this easy) 4 flights of stairs to escape, how many of yall would make it out?” Or how many would just sit on the stairs and cry and say they are neurodivergent and have anxiety and the fire is discriminating against them?

Body positivity was always marketing fad. It was killed by GLP-1 drugs and the buccal fat removal fad. The world has moved on to doing hip thrusts and dumbbell SLRDLs for 30 minutes a day.

If there ever is a human virus outbreak a la 28 days later, everybody in that circle, sans Jillian, will definitely be attacked quickly. My plan is to run towards a group of “body positive people”, and then sneak out through them while the zombies get bogged down. Fortunately for us, “plus sized persons” will not be able to spread the virus as they’d have to catch someone. Oooh, wait….too soon?
Instead of being empowered with tools to understand and change their situation, they’re being taught to protect their emotions at all costs.
Changing fat person from a description to an identity then triggers feeling attacked because its no longer telling a person that fat is bad, it is telling the person that THEY are bad.
Then its not a debate. Its a fight. And there’s no such thing as a fair fight. So the studies are wrong, the facts are lies, and on and on and on. You’re just another bad guy attacking them.
Its the same way with alcoholism. When faced with the choice of change or die, a lot of people would rather die. Thats why self diagnosis or identification and admission is best. You call aomebody something, they’ll take it to the grave trying to prove that you’re wrong.
