The "fat acceptance" folks are at it again. Harassing anyone who uses the term "Obese".
Get real, folks.
Obese = Fat = Overweight = Chunky = Fluffy = Rubenesque = portly = pudgy = and so on.
Accept that everyone uses different terminology. You don't have to accept staying that way.
Congrats on meeting your November goal!
ReplyDeleteAnd yeah. Fat is fat no matter how it's painted. People can love it or leave it. I am all for being kind and nonjudgemental of people who choose to stay in their obese comfort zone. But why act like the label used is going to change the facts?
I haven't been keeping up with We Are The Real Deal, I was really excited when I saw it was in the works. Tnx for linking back to it, now I will remember to look around and see how its running.
