Personally, I am SICK and TIRED of weightloss shows, and fat-shaming!
I don't understand why they dont believe you can be FAT AND HEALTHY. You can also be THIN and UNHEALTHY. Thin does not mean healthy, or in better condition.
The media, and population in general needs to realize EVERY BODY IS BEAUTIFUL.
When I was younger, I was anorexic. I would live on diet pills, laxatives, and caffiene. I would excercise until I passed out, and still never felt thin enough. When I got diagnosed with MS I realized F@&$ it, there's more to life than some BS media ideal of beauty. Be yourself, live, laugh and love. Let the critics talk, and keep on keepin' on, with a smile on your face. Most of all love yourself for who you are, and never take a day for granted, and never wish you were someone else.
I think shows like that are a negative influence on our society and cause more problems, than they do inspire people.

I want to hug you and say, in the immortal words of Bette Midler, "You're beautiful, you're beautiful, you're beautiful, Damnit!"
