So the advice is still good..cannot realistically lose the weight due to health issues? well, hell…you can STILL be super fantastic.

Manolo says the fat need to be well groomed, just as do the slim. And yes there is something wrong with being over weight…I refer to the unhealthy overweight, not those that need to lose a few glam pounds. Its bad for your health.

This advice is good because fat chicks who take good care of their grooming feel better about themselves over all, and that can help feed their confidence so that they can be more successful to getting to a healthier weight if that is their goal. And if they like being fat, well hey that is their choice. But they can still feel super fantastic.

The advice here is that if you don’t want to work to get to a healthy weight, you don’t have worry about not being super fantastic. You just have to work harder at it than the slim chicks.

“Much of the battle it is simply in knowing that you are indeed super fantastic. The girls who hate themelves, they can never be super fantastic…”

Exactly how are we supposed to do the above when, by giving the advice of losing weight, you are indeed telling the fat and fantastic that there’s still something wrong with them? You’re not really saying that the fat can be fantastic; you’re saying they can be as fantastic as their fat will let them become.

There’s nothing wrong with being fat. I used to be anorexic; I got down to 87 pounds, and was more miserable than ever. In order for me to be thin, even 130 pounds thin, I have to starve myself. I’m sure there are many women out there like me. Not everyone is designed to be as thin as the media would have us believe we should be.

I look to you for humor and honesty, and I’m sorry to say this is disappointing. You sound like every other close-minded, well-intentioned diet guru. “I want to help you, and instead of encouraging you to love yourself and respect yourself as you are, I want to help you by changing you.”

Disappointing.
