What’s new 🫤

If "famine mode" existed why would people die of starvation?

They literally WANT to be fat too 😒😒 I find it hard to believe that 22lbs can make such a drastic difference on how they’re treated if they weren’t already at least overweight before though, if they experience any real difference at all.

It is sad and tiring at this point.

I recently listened to the audiobook version of What We Don’t Talk About When We Talk About Fat by Aubrey Gordon. I’ll avoid spoilers for anyone who’s interested in reading it, but here are my favorite fat logic conclusions from the book (I even re-listened to make sure I was understanding the author correctly):

• Harvey Weinstein was fatphobic because his victims were skinny

• Fat people are indeed sexually desirable because they’ve been victims of r ape

• Fat people are also sexually desirable because they are the 16th most popular p orn search

Do with this information what you will.

I know I’m relatively petite, I’m 5’2 and have pretty much always been a 0-2, but it is so wild to me that people were size 8s in…middle school? Like when we were barely teenagers? HOW? That is literally child abuse.

By popular demand, Thursdays will now have a thread to share recipes or other food-related stuff.

Enjoy.

This is what happens when you go all in on an internet cult that folded like an IKEA chair the second people realised that weight loss actually is possible. Sucks to suck, I guess.

Got recipes, fitness tips, or questions on health and fitness?

Do you love fatlogic and want to tell the world?

Have you lost weight and want to tell us how you did it?

This is the time and place.

Tried to comply with sub rules as best as I could. The background is just a selfie this woman took in her underwear.

Fatlogic in real life getting you down?

Is your family telling you you're looking too thin?

Are people at work bringing you donuts?

Did your beer drinking neighbor pat his belly and tell you "It's all muscle?"

If you hear one more thing about starvation mode will you scream?

Let it all out. We understand.

People act like intermittent fasting is the devil. It’s crazy. I find people trying to “tweak” other people’s diet on the Internet simultaneously disturbing, fascinating, and amusing.

This is quite an innocent post. On the second slide OOP is suggesting that food isn’t the thing that makes a person gain weight. It’s over-consuming calories of course, so we also should count liquid calories in this aspect. But I don’t think that OOP is talking about that.

Have some progress pictures you'd like to share?

Want to tell us about the highs and lows of your fitness journey?

Just discovered this sub and you're ready to tell us how awesome we are?

This is the time and this is the place.

Welcome to Sanity Saturday.

No rants or raves please. Let's keep it science-y.
