Girl Talk on Sidechat | If a woman tells you she’s overweight because of a diagnosis, you don’t respond with “oh, me too, just diet, exercise, and don’t make excuses.” You’re just making them feel even worse. It’s not the same for everyone.

I didn’t realize how easy weight loss is for able bodied people until I got on medication that stabilizes my hormones and metabolism. Literally all they have to do is eat a little less and walk a little every day. It’s insane

It’s abhorrent. Glad it works for those of you it works for, but everyone is different. But that seems to be too difficult for them to understand.

And you think that’ll work for every able bodied woman?

I’m agreeing with you. I’m just pointing out that it really is that easy for the people who say that, they have no idea what it’s like for a lot of other people

I misread what you wrote.I was very confused at first. It sounded like you were saying able-bodied people should just take meds and eat less and that’ll help. My apologies.

No worries! Yeah I was talking about how my meds basically put my ability to lose weight on the same level as able bodied people with healthy metabolisms and balanced hormones. I used to have to work my ass off and fast/be in an extreme caloric deficit to lose a couple pounds, only for it to come right back :/
