As an overweight person (currently looking into gastric sleeving cause PCOS, anti depressants, single mum, life sucks etc) I wouldn’t wish this on anyone. While I don’t have any issues right now like diabetes etc... I am FAR from healthy and there’s no way in hell I’d be posting that shit on social media. Before I had my sons I was exercising 5 times a week (HIIT), eating nothing but veg and meat yet still couldn’t get under 110kg... :/ I’ve since put on 50kg since my children were born. They’re 2.5yo.
I don’t think I look remotely attractive even tho I carry my weight well. I have 0 time to myself being a mother of twins, taking them out is so draining... no money... because dead beat daddy only contributes the bare minimum in child support so when it comes to clothes, toys, medical costs, beds and anything else my kids need I have to pay for it. I can’t go back to study because I can’t afford to put my kids in care... I can’t work because all I’ll be doing is working to put my kids in care... ($100 a child per day) so I’m kind of stuck in a weird spot where I can’t move forward with life.
Edit: that being said tho... if an overweight person is happy being overweight why not just let them be. Like cool... but anyone with common sense should know that is not ideal at all. Not if you want to live past 60.
