Fat Acceptance Movement / Fat Girlcows

There is a lot of planning going into her “binges”. Repeatedly over 16-18 days as she says, getting in the car and driving to get fast food or shop at the supermarket to get specific foods. She is always eating the exact same foods when she claims an uncontrollable binge.

I agree with another commenter, she is looking forward to binge, and I think she was so angry/stressed in the car was her frustration of getting home quickly so she could eat it all.

I am curious though, that picture of what she bought is no way all she ate. She binged for 16 straight days allegedly, those true quantities are probably more vast.

I don’t think she does feel shame, I think she knows she should, but she doesn’t actually care. She doesn’t have to work, barely have to leave the house, no hobbies, and enough money to buy all the junk food she wants. She’s quite happy staying the way she is, and she’s not being held accountable to change. Every comment on that video was praising her and saying how brave she is, and oh how she’s so inspiring! There is no reason for her to truly change.
 
They're addicts. They can't help themselves.

Seriously. If you wanted to lose weight and the reason you couldn't was because you lacked the willpower to not inhale a box of Little Debbie cupcakes at once then the solution is don't buy them in the first place. Problem solved.
It is and isn't as simple as not buying the foods you're addicted to. It is because you can't binge if you don't have the food. It isn't because it's a habit established over years of doing this, and because not only are you addicted to the food itself but you're also addicted to the feelings of shame and regret that follow a binge. And bad habits are hard to break. Which is not to say they can't be broken or that they shouldn't try, it's just really fucking hard.

Food addicts hate themselves. They feel, deep deep down, that they deserved whatever trauma caused them to turn to food to cope. Some of them know that feeling is bullshit, but on an intellectual level only. Others have no ability to self-reflect enough to be aware of why they feel this way. Others want to stop indulging in these behaviors but can't seem to, at least not consistently.

It doesn't help that people at large don't recognize food/sugar addiction as real. Even on forums dedicated to losing weight like the Myfitnesspal message boards. People say they think they are addicted, and people pile on saying there's no such thing. The first step in breaking an addiction is accepting you're an addict. It's almost impossible to even get that far with everyone telling you that you aren't an addict.

If sugar addiction is real people would eat sugar straight from the bag, they say. No one is doing that, they say. But addicts do if there's no other source of sugar in the house. They say addicts steal money and other stuff to fuel their addiction, food addicts don't do that, they say. But addicts do if there's no other way to get their fix.

So it's hard to get advice and support for these people. Their concerns are dismissed by people who don't know that sugar does cause withdrawals if you quit cold turkey, as organizations who study addiction know. Hell, Keto flu is a good example of the withdrawal process. Intense cravings for sugar, fatigue, headaches, feeling generally unwell - all of those are symptoms of sugar withdrawal according to several addiction websites I looked at recently.

Maybe someday there will be more of a focus on this. Until then these people will continue to kill themselves because they aren't willing to even try to break habits. It's sad, but that's addiction for you.

RE: intuitive eating. I can see how it should work, but our bodies are weird wrt to cravings. I know someone doing keto for diabetes. During the sugar detox phase this person really craved peanuts and ate way too many, because addict. Eventually they realized that they weren't craving peanuts but rather salt because detoxing from sugar messes up your electrolytes. They started making sports drinks out of kool-aid and salt and voila, no more binging on peanuts.

Intuitive eating says eat whatever you're craving without trying to figure out why you're craving it. This is why it fails for these fatties.
 
About this overview of binge foods - Tammy says that some people have said that she seems proud of her binge by laying it all out like this, and she denies that. I believe her, I don't believe that she is proud of her binges and I'm sure she feels horrible and ashamed afterwards. However, I do think that when she decides to buy binge foods and lay them all out like that, at that point she is happily anticipating it. It's not just 'raising awareness' at that moment. Hell, looking at this spread some part of my lizard brain says "That looks good, you should just eat" even though I'm not hungry and I don't even like half the stuff there (Katja apekoppen is like crack though).

Plus at this point she could still stop and not binge, maybe call a friend to come take it away if she's not strong enough, but she has decided that she will binge and that she will enjoy it.

After seeing this picture I decided out of sheer curiosity to do a calorie count, even though I know she has the total amount of calories in the thumbnail. It's in the spoiler in order not to bore people who aren't interested.
So Tammy said in her video that she ended up eating everything that was laid out except two items (red ones).
1.png
1) Ben & Jerry's Cookie dough 465 ml. It's 235 kcal per 100 ml so a whole tub is 1092,75 kcal.

2) Ben & Jerry's Vanilla Pecan Blondie 465 ml. It's 236 kcal per 100 ml so a whole tub is 1097,4 kcal.

3) Ben & Jerry's Netflix & Chill'd 465 ml. It's 240 kcal per 100 ml so a whole tub is 1116 kcal.

4) Katja Apekoppen 255 g. It's 346 kcal per 100 g so a whole package is 882,3 kcal.

5) Ritter sport chocolate 100 g. It's 583 kcal per 100 g.
Ritter.png Ritter 2.png

6) Delicata chocolate. There's both a 100 g and a 200 g version. I'm going with the 200 g version cause that's what the size in the photo looks like to me. It's 553 kcal per 100 g so a whole chocolate of 200 g is 1106 kcal.

7) Krokante Pizza Kip Tikka 320 g. It's 251 kcal per 100 g so a whole pizza is 803,2 kcal.

8.) Krokante Pizza Salami 320 g. It's 261 kcal per 100 g so a whole pizza is 835,2 kcal.

9) Spicy garlic sauce 300 ml. It's 279 kcal per 100 ml so a whole bottle is 837 kcal.

10) Energy drink 250 ml. It's only 2 kcal per 100 ml so a whole can is 10 kcal.
Drink.png Drink 2.png

11) Choco Soesjes 11 pieces. In Tammy's pic it says Bonus on the package so I don't know if they've added a piece or not, so we'll just go with 11. It's 75 kcal per piece so a whole box of 11 is 825 kcal.
Choco.png Choco 2.png

12) Kasteeltjes 4 pieces. It's 175 kcal per piece so a whole box of 4 is 700 kcal.

13) Paas creme melange 175 g. It's 563 kcal per 100 g so a whole package is 985,25 kcal.
Paas.png Paas 2.png

14) Maple pecan pastry 95 g. It's 413 kcal per 100 g so a whole pastry is 392,35 kcal.
Pastry.png Pastry 2.png

15) Donut 54 g. It looks like 2 donuts to me in the pic so that's what I'm counting. It's 435 kcal per 100 g so 2 whole donuts are 469,8 kcal.
Donut.png Donut 2.png

So the grand total of this binge is a whopping 11.735,25 kcal. I don't even know which smile to choose this :story: or this (:_(. At least she wasn't clickbaiting with her thumbnail.
 





Gotta hand her this one, though:
 
Intuitive eating says eat whatever you're craving without trying to figure out why you're craving it. This is why it fails for these fatties.
When I think of 'intuitive eating' I think: making sure most of my meals have greens in them, having fruit every now and then, not overdoing it on oil and salt unless it's a recipe that really needs it and whatnot, all of which is eyeballed (the intuitive part), which doesn't sound how you're describing it at all. 'Eat what you want' sounds more like the warped version fatties tell themselves. If that's what the IE concept is, I'm not sure it's the right approach for anyone, let alone them.

Following cravings alone is a fool's errand and more like a warning signal to get yourself checked out, when it makes us reach for the chips it doesn't tell us exactly it's magnesium deficiency. Hell, it's so imprecise that we know people mistake thirst for hunger. I wonder many obese people are actually dehydrated since they can't touch water without a ton of salt or sugar? Hunger signals can get a bit fucked up easily even for normal people, I'd say most should just stick to a schedule because the rest of our lives already has to run that way.

I think your idea of intuitive eating is what it's supposed to be, what it tries to become for skellys in treatment. It's a way to take away the fear of food and start focusing on how food should nourish you.

My comment about eating what you think you crave any time there's a craving is what I feel it's been warped into, not what I think it's supposed to be. Intuitive eating the way fatties have warped it to is not good for anyone, no. Their version of nourish is not get good nutrition, but to eat whatever you want. They've taken the idea that food is fuel and food has no moral values and twisted it too. This leads them to say Little Debbie snack cakes are the same as vegetables and lean meats, because food is food regardless of actual nutrition in the foods.

When people say food has no morals, they aren't saying foods are all equal. Just that snack cakes aren't something to be afraid of eating because you think they'll make you fat. The "unless you eat two boxes a day plus three regular meals" is unspoken because it's generally understood. The fatties know what it means, but they use the spoken words as a justification for what they want to do. The ladies in this thread know they are lying to everyone, including themselves. If they didn't know that they wouldn't talk about it so much.

As for the 12,000 calorie binge, that was definitely planned to be a binge. The only reason you would lay all that food out and photograph it is if you were planning on eating all of it at once, then go online and look for asspats. It's a very manipulative action. Going online and crying about mah addiction poor me over and over won't get the reaction she needs to keep hating herself after the first few times. Show proof of her binges? Horror, sympathy, asspats, and people talking trash about her. She needs people to hate/be disgusted by her so she can tell herself that this just proves why she should hate herself. It's genuinely sad, but unless she realizes what she's doing and wants to do the hard work of fixing her relationship with herself she'll never change. Like all addicts she's broken inside.
 
Astonishing.

Her belly extends nearly two feet in front of her face, she’s sitting on a mattress thickness of fat, and her thigh is wider than many adult mens’ torsos. Her skeleton is being smothered in a suit of fat.

And then there’s this:

Thanks for the thinspo Jordan! And it’s not just that you’re fat— it’s the discolored skin, the scabbing sores, and the hormones run amok that mark you as unhealthy.

How is this (turning around your bottoms) comfortable? I know being fat is itself uncomfortable, but why make it worse?

I don't know why but it's like my brain can't register the size of this human. Like it's still making my brain glitch to see someone this big.
 
Whenever I see their gunts coming out of the leg holes of their swim suits, my arms actually feel weak from horror. I think they turn their bottoms around because so many of them end up with a huge front butt while their real backside withers and flattens so they don't need as much fabric back there.
Or they think showing off the saggy square ass in what would end up a thong is sexy.

oh, edited to ask, what in the heck is going on below her belly button? Is it dirt or hair or what??

It looks like she has spider veins around her belly button and on her stomach. 🧐

Edit: Not to mention the coloring and lines from her tattoo.
 
Is it just me or does Jordan seem to be growing larger and larger every day? Also I fully believe that she hasn’t got much time left, she looks really ill. Her hands are blue and bloated, her face is flushed .
The bellybutton is just flooded with fat squished by those bikinis, so it appears as a vertical line. There’s also a tattoo line I think.
