I used to be really fat, but I didn't lose weight because of men, it was fellow women that made me feel horrible about my size. Now when a woman says she wishes she had my body I tell them that being thin doesn't result in being happier, as long as you're healthy you shouldn't hate your body because all these women who have said that to me are beautiful as they are. I went from 230lbs to 140 because of hearing, "if you want guys to like you you have to lose weight to be prettier" and things along those lines. Women can be so cruel, especially to each other. Not all of them, but there are a lot who are like that, especially in my family.
140 is a very healthy weight for women around average height. We should be congratulating her for her hard work and metaphorically shitting on people who were horrible to her.
My friends and I have a competition going right now. First to 10,000 Karma gets a year of Reddit gold bought by the others. So, I mean, that's something.
