Fat Acceptance Movement / Fat Girlcows

[NoReturn]

The same reason that not shaving your armpits is feminist but it's much dumber- it's one thing to disagree with a gendered aesthetic expectation (body hair grooming styles), but it's quite another to masquerade physical discomfort as only an aesthetic choice.
Not supporting size C and on boobs with a bra, going without anything, fecking h u r t s.
It's not just a lewk, it strains your back and neck. Bras are an amazing invention, and in general the vast majority of the time they help big boobed women function to a much greater range of motion. Any woman who actually does stuff knows that bras are just a highly necessary practicality, like wearing pants or shoes.

So I guess her rejection of bras is like a rejection of maintaining a healthy weight- any realistic woman not interested in cutting off her nose to spite her face won't become obese and be boobs akimbo because it looks feminist. Because those things are limiting.
Bekah is limiting her range of motion and sacrificing her health in service of a culturally trendy aesthetic. This time it just happens to be enabled by DoorDash/Uber Eats instead of Vogue, though.

I'd be pissy about her lack of critical thinking skills here but.. fucking hell, Bekah. Please get help. This current 'feminism' of haes is just addiction cope. It's correct that it's not welcome in 'fatphobic' leftist circles. Because it's total garbage only tolerated by other addicts.

I wonder if she's just outgrown her bras and hasn't replaced them.

Spoiler: Bra spergery

It's ok to be braless at larger sizes than C, but you have to adapt and compensate for it.
You have to dress in a way where it's not obvious you're braless if you chose to do it in public and live a lifestyle where the weight of your chest isn't going to be causing constant pain. That said, though, no amount of working out will remove the need for a sports bra when doing so.

Oh my fucking God i’m glad that most fat people are not this unbearable I choose to believe that most fat people when they watch this groan equally as loud shit like this hurts their movement more than anything like even if I was completely ignorant to the deathly consequences of morbid obesity seeing this shit right here just makes me roll my eyes so hard

"Marginalized bodies..."

Yeah no bitch. 70% of the US population is overweight/obese. You are not marginalized, you are the majority.
Also, y'all fatties shit on slim women all the time. Learn to take a damn joke.

I'm surprised they are able to slide by as much as they do while pretending to be a marginalized like queers and blacks.
They literally think they are born that way or something. They think their obesity is genetic the same way (arguably) a gay person is born gay or a black person is born black. It's really disgusting. They have completely disconnected from their dietary habits causing their weight and think they are just "born that way".
If you are black or gay I don't see how you wouldn't be offended to see fat asses marching beside you in a civil rights movement for their right to eat pie lol. (and yes - I have literally seen on tiktok fatties calling fat acceptance/liberation/body positivity a civil rights movement)

I'm not an expert, but to me it seems like a very bad idea to be pureeing foods so soon after gastric bypass. The surgery isn't magic; it works by restricting calories for fatties who cannot manage it themselves. Liquifying meals seems like a really easy way to slide back in to consuming tens of thousands of calories daily even with a smaller stomach.

Let the countdown to failure begin!

 

[I call shenanigans]

And this lady doesn't seem to want to change anything. Living in that body's got to be terrible, but if she's always been that fat, that's her normal, and she has no inkling how terrible it is. Plus, she has a willing enabler and caretaker, no kids, and no other obvious responsibilities that would provide external motivation to change. So unless she discovers an internal motivation to do it, this is just how she's going to live her life, even as it kills her—which, IMO, is sad, because unlike our regular cows, she seems genuine, and is kind of funny.

She's actually been on a weightloss journey for over a year now...this is supposedly her over 100lbs down.

She's very likely doing exactly what's asked by her bariatric surgeon/dietician. While some want two weeks liquid, two weeks puree, then two weeks soft food....others don't. It's become quite common in both Europe (and publically funded hospital clinics in Aus) to have patients on liquid diets much longer pre-op and purees and soft foods within a couple of days of gastric bypass/sleeve surgeries....before they even get discharged from hospital. These newer protocols (and by new I mean they've been being used now for 5 years) allow for patients to be cleared to eat any textures they can tolerate at around the two week mark.

Spoiler: Body size spergery

This all double-sucks because if "body positivity" was actually what it claims to be, it could lead to a lot of interesting educational outreach.
As an example: Most skeletons we see in classrooms and such are those of adult European men. Hell, it's even difficult to find comparison pictures online beyond skulls.

Though I did find this from the same site, which is decent for our purposes:

So, can you be genetically predisposed to be "wide"? Yes.
Large hips and rib cages, short torsos and limbs; all of these are factors that contribute to how you look. That dude on the bottom-right, for example, would never be a cute twink no matter how hard he exercised or dieted.
Meanwhile, in the medical field, we're seeing shit like this: These Algorithms Look at X-Rays—and Somehow Detect Your Race
The details in that article are frankly rather concerning. They talk about how not only are the people involved questioning how such a thing could happen, but that they're seriously considering kneecapping a potentially useful tool for political reasons.
We know fatties are going to use this to their advantage. It's just like their new habit of going into the doctor's office and asking "What would your diagnosis be if I weighed 130lbs?"

Bekah for my rants

Let me put this into terms you might understand, Bek.
"Bekah, ye'r scots. If ye'r radge at NHS Englain then yer cultural heritage dictates that ye hae a moral responsibility tae git swole, gang sooth, an' stairt burnin` hings."

[Swamp Hag]

there was actually a video before this but it was her and her pet moid shopping for even more xmas tat, so i declined to watch

in this Q&A video she goes over the following:

• Spoiler: long recap

  she wasn't sure if people wanted to know about this (stop lying), but she had a lot of support in comments so decided to make videos about it
  [*]Q: How long was the prep process? A: About 3 months for her. She said all programs can be different but her personal one was 3 months. She had to go through a behavioral course and a nutrition course.
  [*]Q: How much did you have to pay? A: Her insurance covered the procedure. She alludes this could be because of her BMI and possible health conditions she had caused by obesity but does not outrightly say this
  [*]Q: How did she talk to her husband about this? A: Let's be real, she simply told him what she was going to do and he had no say in the matter lmao. The way she ACTUALLY words this however, is she wants to start a family and she is having a lot of lower back, knee and ankle pain and is struggling to go up and down stairs and she thought this would get in the way of her family plans. She says all her friends, husband and family were supportive.
  [*]Q: What was she most scared about? A: She was afraid of the pain. Then she kisses her own ass and says how strong she is. Then she said the pre- and post-surgery diet worried her. She claims its not been that hard so far, but then acknowledges she is only 10 days post-op as this video is recorded.
  [*]Q: How was the initial appointment? A: Good, everyone was nice. They went over her surgery options and Alex decided on this one.
  [*]Q: Is there any pre-op psychological evaluation? A: Yes, there is the behavioral program you have to complete. They also ask if you have a good support system and go over your mindset briefly about diets & food. She doesn't go into much detail about it.
  [*]Q: What was the pre-op diet? A: She started by "lowering starches" and then says there is an app that she used on her phone to log her food and water intake and it was checked by her nutritionist provided by the place that does the surgery as part of her pre-op preparation. 2 weeks before the op she went on a "liver shrinking diet" that was low fat and low carb. She praises the hospital's support system
  [*]Q: What made you pick gastric bypass over the gastric sleeve? A: She doesn't answer this, seems to confuse it with the question "what is the difference between the two" and simply describes the difference.
  [*]Q: What does the pre-op program entail, do they make you lose weight before the surgery? A: You do the nutrition and behavior programs til they clear you, you do bloodwork and a "breath test". She doesn't say what it is but I assume it's an H Pylori bacteria test. Her program did NOT require weight loss before. She did lose about 10 lbs due to the pre-op diets, but didn't try to lose anything. She really loved that they didn't force her to lose weight before the surgery.
  [*]Q: Are you hungry on your liquid diet (after surgery)? A: She didn't feel hungry until she started the pureed food part of her recovery diet. She just rambles on about protein shakes and hitting macros for a bit.
  [*]Q: Are you nervous about regaining weight & extra skin? The asker says they are nervous about this as they approach their own surgery. A: Alex says life is too short to be nervous about problems. She is going to "give herself grace" and take it a day at a time. She says if she gets loose skin, she doesn't know when or if she would get it removed. She wants to think about that later and is just focusing on recovery for now.
  [*]Q: What did the doctor say about getting enough nutrients from so little food? A: They give you protein and hydration targets. She takes a bariatric multivitamin.
  [*]Q: How are you going to eat enough when she gets pregnant eventually? A: You aren't supposed to get pregnant for a full year after your surgery. By that time your stomach may stretch a bit. She said when she wants to get pregnant she will liase with her surgeon and a gynecologist and other specialists. She has a friend who got pregnant a few years after a gastric bypass so she says it can be done, and she will just do whatever doctors say.
  [*]Q: How big are the scars? A: About an inch or so big. She has 4 she thinks
  [*]Q: Are you mad you had the tummy tuck? A: No, she isn't mad. She was glad to have it because her fupa was always getting skin infections under the flap and she struggled to keep it clean and dry.
  [*]Q: What made you get the surgery? A: She talks about previous videos where she said she was feeling pain, and wants to have a baby soon.
  [*]Q: Will you address your binge eating issues? The asker thinks it could be helpful for others struggling. A: Alex says she hasn't binged in awhile (sure, Jan). She said the nutrition program helped and she is working through any binge struggles she might still have
  [*]Q: What is the pain level like, is it ok to move after surgery? A: She said she wasn't in loads of pain and was just sore for a few days and now, 10 days on she doesn't really need pain meds anymore.
  [*]Q: How long was the procedure? A: 2 hours
  [*]Q: Why did you choose surgery instead of just try Weight Watchers or whatever again? A: She said she has been dieting for a long time and was not able to keep weight off so wanted to try the surgery. Some family members have had it and she thinks that has helped make her mind up. She said she never wanted to get to a place where surgery was needed but here we are, so had to come to terms with maybe needing to do it

Sorry @Swamp Hag I can't quote you, but I found these 2 answers laughable:

Q: Are you nervous about regaining weight & extra skin?....
A: Alex says life is too short to be nervous about problems. She is going to "give herself grace" and take it a day at a time....​

Sounds like the same lack of foresight that went into her previous surgeries Yeah, why worry about possibly regaining weight after surgery; not like she hasn't done that at least twice before.

Q: Why did you choose surgery instead of just try Weight Watchers or whatever again?
A: She said she has been dieting for a long time and was not able to keep weight off so wanted to try the surgery.....​

Yeah, dieting is such a pain!! Takes too much willpower and whatnot! SO much easier to just go under the knife and force your body to eat less...until you slowly start stretching out your stomach and end up right back where you started. She's 100% gaining it all back

Yeah I couldn't really capture it in text but in the "worrying about regaining" question she is SUPER dismissive about possibly gaining weight back.

Also she doesn't say this in the video, but I suspect she chose bypass over sleeve because of the way it makes the food skip some of your small intestine (so you literally can't absorb as much as normal from food you eat). She wants the surgery to do the work for her.

 

[Catboi]

I feel miserable for Bekah. She looked so cute back in 2017-2018 when she was just a little chubby. She could've just stayed chubby and happy. She didn't need to be turboskinny nor turbofat.

The tender tummy of a new bypass person can't handle real food. It would hurt. A lot. You have to do it this way so everything heals properly.

I know some people who aren't able to go from the puree to solids for months. It won't ruin the surgery just yet. Yet.

She should have gotten the duodenal switch. Just my opinion. Best results over time but it's also the most drastic. There are only like 50 surgeons in the states that do it though

Just a reminder, Alex was a 16 year old (still a kid), when she had her lapband surgery in Mexico. Not only has lapband been long abandoned because it's ineffective and has lots of post-op complications, she would have had no ongoing support from her surgeon.

There's a lot more to bariatric surgery than just having your stomach resized. Hormones play a large part in weight gain and retention. By far the majority of patients that go under the knife to address weight issues already struggle to varying degrees with metabolic syndrome. Bariatric surgery is one way to help address metabolic syndrome without drugs.

I suspect she chose bypass over sleeve because of the way it makes the food skip some of your small intestine (so you literally can't absorb as much as normal from food you eat). She wants the surgery to do the work for her.

There's no way of knowing that given we aren't privy to her medical history or the results of the barrage of tests she had prior to surgery. Normally a surgeon will recommend gastric sleeve for younger women still wanting children, but if diabetes is in play then bypass is absolutely the better surgery of the two. Thats why Amy Slaton was given a bypass despite wanting to get pregnant. The surgeon that performed her WLS generally preferences VSG, but bypass is often seen as a cure for diabetes.

@ConSluttant, There's is no way a reputable surgeon would recommended a DS for a young female wanting to have children. These surgeries should be reserved for the most obese of obese folk.

I guess I'm just wondering why she needs to be eating a pureed version of her "normal" diet at all, particularly so close on the heels of surgery. I'd think that she'd be fine for quite awhile on clear liquids, protein shakes, and a multivitamin. It just seems strangely...counterproductive to me that she's already laser-focused on pureeing her old favorites. It suggests that she's unwilling to endure even short term hunger, which has been her problem all along. If your stomach is still so tender that you need to puree your food, maybe you should take a break from eating for awhile. I'm an asshole, though.

Three whole months of a "behavioral program". Never mind, guys, I'm sure she's totally cured.

Edited to add that for some reason the quote is all fucky; sorry.

I was actually referring to her fucking up her 2 more recent surgeries, the chin lipo and the secret lower belly surgery she "came clean" on after pretending it was just diet and exercise. I don't hold her teen lapband against her, as most teens require their parents and/or close supervision to make them follow through on a lifestyle change, and I doubt someone who got to the point of needing weight loss surgery at 16 had parents like that.

I've always been that loathed food police person with bariatric clients. There is ongoing pysch and nutritional support after the surgery so it isn't just three months and patients are cured of their often lifelong issues. There's nothing wrong with her progression to puréed foods at this point, but you're right in that she shouldn't just be pureeing the same crap food she ate before. I'm sure many of us have heard stories of acquaintances of friends or family that rush home from Maccas to puree their junior cheeseburger, or choose to live on soft serve icecream for months on end. These folk will and pretty much always do fail. Plus puréed meat is gluggy shit. Where I used to work we'd tell people to go out and buy the nicest piece of scotch fillet steak they could find, cook it beautifully tender, cut off a square inch for themselves and serve the rest to their partner (if they had one). The advice was generally to forget all the old favourites and find new ones while their taste buds were changing (because for some reason they do, and there can also be new short term food intolerances) and that because they could tolerate so little food early on, to buy the absolute best quality because now they could afford quality over quantity. The earlier we could get folk back to "normal" foods texture wise, the more successful they tended to be. Puréed and soft foods go down too easily and all day long, whereas more solid foods would stay in the pouch longer and help with satiety as well as aid in learning the full signals much quicker. There's a lot of science and research in what does and doesn't work and the logic behind different food texture transitions. Patients aren't going to burst the modern staplelines though so that's a red herring. All that will happen if they overeat it a shitloads of pain until they can throw up, and after bypass often people no longer can...and that pain is not easily forgotten and serves as a good lesson.

I was actually referring to her fucking up her 2 more recent surgeries, the chin lipo and the secret lower belly surgery she "came clean" on after pretending it was just diet and exercise. I don't hold her teen lapband against her, as most teens require their parents and/or close supervision to make them follow through on a lifestyle change, and I doubt someone who got to the point of needing weight loss surgery at 16 had parents like that.

I can't speak to her chin lipo...that was before my time/experience with Alex, but I'm sure she'd have us all remember that her tummy tuck was not about weight, it was about skin breakdown under her fat apron. Absolutely not a weightloss surgery (well it isn't), and not a vanity issue either.

Well, that ghastly yellow blond hair dosent help, especially when paired with non-Caucasian skin. Most blond brings out any latent yellow-green undertones in skin, making you look sickly, and this is Party City Wig-level dye job. A trained colorist would have given her a different look, but she probably got this out of a box.
Oh and her body type is clearly "melted candle" so that also adds to the visual horror.

I see she started using filters on her iPhone vlogs. It’s especially egregious in the beginning of the video.

She had posted a previous video about her hubby’s Spartan Race - he did a good time, so kuddos Kenny !
