This bitch. I try not to be MATI but it's hard when I see shit like this. I'd love to hear her have that conversation with the doctor.

 

[Reepicheep]

I wonder if he abandoned her when she got sick.

he was there until the very end. she did seem like a sweet person.

"My beautiful wife has passed away after her 3 year battle with cancer. Words cannot express how devastated I am.

Joy was my soulmate, the light of my world, my everything. She was one of a kind. A truly special person who brought happiness and humor into the lives of those around her. Quick witted, cantankerous, warm, curious, eloquent and artistic. She spoke her mind and had a way of expressively drawing you into her thoughts and feelings. Anyone who spent time conversing with her left feeling that special Joy charm she imprinted on you.

We built this wonderful little life together. She filled our home with her photographs and with curated “doodads”, as she called them. Everything we have reminds me of her, there are little pieces of her heart all around me. Which is a blessing and a curse, because it makes me yearn deeply for her.

Now, I don’t have anyone to have and to hold. I don’t have her voice to guide me. I’m completely lost and alone. And, I don’t know if I can do this alone. My world has stopped and I’ve lost all fire within me. I can’t handle the thought of not having her, hearing her, seeing her… She was on my mind every minute of every day. She was what got me through difficult times. She was the voice of love and of reason. She would hype me up when I was low. She always had my back, I could always count on her. I’m so sorry I couldn’t do more for you Joy.

I’m laying on your side of the bed clutching and smelling your beanie unable to stop sobbing. It’s not fair. Together for 8 years married for 5 and cancer for 3. And I would do it all again for you, just to have the time that we did. I don’t know where you go when you die but our souls will find each other again in the next life, our bond was too deep for anything less. I love you."

If I was her doctor I'd literally tell her, "you need to see somebody else" because the last thing I'm doing is telling some fat fuck what they want to hear and not what they need to hear.

he was there until the very end. she did seem like a sweet person.

And I feel for the guy. Losing a spouse is never an easy thing but let's get real here. Even if she didn't have cancer she'd probably have been dead in 10 years due to obesity related issues.

 

[Miltank]

wants evidence based solutions yet is part of the haes cult which vehemently denies facts and EBS like being fat causes the majority of the issues they walk in there to complain about. Can’t have it both ways Bertha

That's a lovely persecution fantasy she just made up. Too bad it has absolutely no basis in reality. See: almost every other cow on this forum who goes through clothes in record time because they must consoooooooom.

If the availability of plus-size clothing is as limited as she claims, then she needs to go watch Anna O'Brien's haul videos and get back to me. Thanks to Anna, I get to be amazed at just how much clothing choice—including trendy stuff—is available for fat chicks these days.

If her body size and proportions are less extreme than Anna's (and I suspect they are), there are definitely clothes available for her, so I suspect this complaint really boils down to being unhappy with the aesthetic choices available to her, which is not the same thing as lack of availability of clothing in general.

No true fatman.

It is surprisingly difficult to find try on videos on her page for someone who has "fash" in her name. The vast majority of her content is her sitting there talking to the camera while wearing a tshirt.

I've never worn holes into my jeans just by virtue of wearing them, even when doing work outside or riding. Lady, you wear holes in yours because you're fat and putting wear and tear on the clothing that normal people's bodies and movements don't. Most modern clothes have shit stitching and things usually fall apart there first.

I still have clothes from high school I can fit into and while clearly not new they aren't worn through with holes. That happens if you catch them in something.

It *does* cost more to produce clothing for fat people because their fat is shaped differently so only a small portion of them may work in a particular brand's jeans, meaning you can't sell them in similar quantities to smaller sizes despite the apparent market. That's not a problem smaller sizes have. It's why a lot of brands with super big sizes are usually specialty brands. This is all very simple stuff. I'm not even that into clothes and I know stuff like this.

Clearly there are options on the market since none of these people are going naked. Real first world problems.

Oh she's got a video for that, too.

"The cost is in overhead and production not just in materials."

No, shit? Materials are part of that overhead and the mass production do not, to my knowledge, dye individual pants in loads, they have the fabric already dyed it's the cutting and sewing that they do. The way a smaller maker produces and sells them is going to be different too. Companies want to make money, if there was as much money as people say in giga gigantic sizes they would be doing that. They aren't because it's not as smart a money making move as people like her think. Most super obese people just want to be comfortable and go for softer fabrics and oversized shirts and balloon dresses because things fit weird on them.

I had to see this earlier and now I'm making it everyone else's problem:

Spoiler: you're welcome

"Not that much extra fabric"?!
I agree that the fabric probably doesn't cost that much more for a fast-fashion company, but saying it's not that much more in mass is ludicrous! You could sew 2-3 normal sized garments out of her clothes.

@Plantation Barbie
How is that allowed on YouTube?

Just another fat blaming extreme weight regain on anything except stuffing their gullet and eating garbage. As per usual, she talks about how unhappy she was at her lowest weight.

Oh. And of course she is a "Healthy Lifestyle and Life Coach."

 

[ARIMASPOI]

That regain is just tragic. I also lost weight, then regained to a higher level of obesity, lost it again, regained it back to be even higher, now lost it all again. Currently on 11% bodyfat.
Even now the urge to eat myself back into my old form remains eternally present. If I trust my 'feeling', I overeat.
That's why I lurk these threads, to remain 'radicalized'.

30lbs gain in 3 weeks is INSANE! It's hard to believe she "didn't change anything she was eating or drinking." ....Even in the very next sentence she says the 30lbs weight gain was the trigger for her "reverting to eating her feelings."

Sounds like she thought her surgery was the magic ticket and went "ok I had the surgery, time to give up on trying because I'm cured" or she was stressed out after the surgery..... And immediately post-op reverted to binge-eating/grossly overeating.

If she was doing something like fasting/heavily restricting pre-surgery, and then immediately went back to eating a ton after surgery, that could maybe be 15lbs in food+water weight, and then I guess the rest of it would be some mixture of excess water retention and actual fat/weight gain. I find it hard to believe that she gained 30lbs of just water weight when she admits to binge-eating herself into weight gain in the next sentence.

"The surgery gave me fluid retention but actually the fluid retention was from a fall I had years ago" sounds like total cope that doctors would encourage you to believe because it's nicer than the alternative: "You got fatter after this surgery! So the surgery was basically worthless because you weren't mentally capable to sustain your lifestyle changes, oops! Maybe we shouldn't have approved you!"

 

[DefCon Dumb]

Something way off with those numbers. 1.3 lbs. if retained water per DAY on top of what was cycling normally through metabolism?

Few people not working physically Beth hard, especially in heat drink that m.
