Woman's fit2fat transformation receives less than adequate praise

https://old.reddit.com/r/progresspics/comments/wb4sio/f2353_120lbs_182lbs_62lbs_2_years_a_little

								

								

F/23/5’3” [120lbs < 182lbs = 62lbs] (2 years) A little different than most posts here but on the left was a self conscious girl who was starving herself and now I may be heavier but my mental health is much better off!

Even the top comments are gently telling her she's a fat frick now:

None of this is to knock your mental progress. I think you've made fantastic strides there and your smile is incredible. But there's a middle ground between starving and overeating which I'm trying to find myself too.


I do not mean to offend you, or trivalize your mental health gains, just saying don't dismiss physical, as physical/mental are connected!

The rest of the comment section is a graveyard of [removed]:

OP is severely overweight and I’m very glad she has made mental progress but this is not okay[removed]


She looks beautiful in every photo. [-75]

That one stayed up. I wonder what the mods of /r/progresspics weigh.

120 lbs is a normal weight for a 5'3" woman. I'm glad you are feeling better, mentally now. Hopefully you can find some balance for long term health, physically and mentally. [+21][removed]

I understand you’re trying to be kind but the first thing is really not helpful or kind to say to someone recovering from disordered eating. Just thought id let you know[-4]

The amount of calories required for a 5'3" woman to weigh 180lbs necessitates disordered eating.

This is like extolling the virtues of trading a pain killer addiction for alcoholism. Neither one is good[+19][removed]


Not to be disrespectful bc I'm super glad your mental health is better, but if you went from undereating to over eating then...I've been there and right now you're better than your worst definitely, but you are not your best. [removed, bitched out by mod]


It is not progress to watch someone becoming obese before your eyes. The lack of common sense and the harmful unscientific advice and perspective that people in this community blindly give for the sake of reddit karma or whatever useless self-indulgant bullcrap reason they do it is staggering and not actually helpful. As a mental health worker chances are there is far more at play in your mental health than you are stating, and I'd advise that you get some true mental health from a professional as well as work on diet and exercise so that you can maximize your physical and mental health. I'll probably be down voted to heck for this post. Don't give a shit. I'd rather give you some honest perspective and advice.[+11][removed]

This sounds like some harmful unscientific advice bro stfu[-7][removed]

So you are saying that it is harmful and unscientific to not consult with a mental health professional after a person has gained 1/3 extra body weight and has self described mental health issues? Nah I'm good champ, I don't think that I will stfu. Perhaps you should rethink your post, then follow your own advice.[+6][removed]


This post reflects a continued eating disorder. Sorry but that’s the reality. Seek help, not affirmation that everything is fine and better, because it isn’t.[removed]


I really wonder what people are eating when they say they’re starving themselves at a healthy weight. [removed, bitched out by mod]


Now that you're in a better place mental health wise, it is time to take control and reach a healthy weight without starving yourself.[removed, bitched out by mod]

That mod is real pissed about the notion that being obese might be unhealthy. I'm starting to noooootice.....

Oh, what do you know.

I reached my goal weight. I was the happiest I had been in years. Then I gained it all back.

And this was over a year ago. I assume she's even fatter now :marseychonkerfoid:

She started at 250, lost down to 128, then IMMEDIATELY gained back to 237, and is presumably even bigger than her starting weight now. :marseysmug2: Little insecure, huh?

It has taken such a toll on me. I look at pictures of me at my lowest weight and I just cry and cry. I know it’s pathetic but I remember how even then I didn’t truly like the way I looked. I took it for granted. I have become the exact thing I tried so hard to run from.

It was in recent weeks that I became truly fed up. I have exactly 2 shirts of mine that fit me. I frequently wear extremely oversized shirts because I can’t stand to look at myself. I had enough of having nothing to wear and not liking what I looked like in a mirror or in pictures. I had enough of a damaged relationship with food.

lol. lmao. Claims her current weight is 150lbs but I doubt that very very much. Takes a lot of fat to fuel this amount of seething.

Her other post:#marseycope:

Boyfriend says that he likes my weight gain and thinks I look better with curves…We’ve been dating for about a year and a half. I’m a F23 and when we met I was 124 lbs. I now weigh 180 lbs and I’m only 5 ft 3 so I definitely have gained a decent amount. My boyfriend still tells me I look skinny to him and I shouldn’t worry but I’ve never been with a guy who openly appreciates me gaining weight so what do y’all think about it?
