If I hear one more person say "Long Covid doesn't exist" or "it's just the flu" I will scream.

I just joined a gym and they do a total body scan where it tells you all of the areas of your body and basically what your strengths and weaknesses are biologically and physically currently. I wanna make sure I go into this in a healthy headspace. does anyone have any intuitive based advice and words of wisdom going into this?

I just finished the book Jemima J, and the main character is a plus-size woman. She has a quadruple chin, people stare at her on the street, and she needs to catch her breath after walking up the stairs. Then toward the middle of the book it's revealed that she is 5'7" and her highest weight is 217. I'm not saying a person of that size wouldn't have any issues, but it seems like the issues described would be unlikely.
Similarly, in the book She's Come Undone the main character is 5'6" and weighs 257. She needs a special chair in class, she is too big even for plus-size stores and when she gets in a car it tilts because of her weight. These experiences also don't seem to be accurate for someone of this weight (the book is set in the 1960s/1970s during these things, so I understand views on weight and average sizes were different. But still).
I can think of a lot of other examples as well where a character seems to be having the experience of someone 100 or more pounds heavier.
Any ideas as to why authors often get this so wrong?

Extra seat with a side of diabetes
Haha she bouncing the entire plane on that video
This is disgusting.
Turbulence sign just got switched on
She'll be able to enjoy this for 20 less years than a healthy person.
How do really big zoo animals get transferred? Because if your too fat to fly in a regular plane seat then maybe you should fly with your own kind.
Imagine being a fat frick and thinking you should be entitled to special treatment for it.
Imagine being happy that you're so fat that you can't even fit in one seat, and at such a young age.

The only thing I can think of is that this person believes the post-surgery neovagina 'evolves' after surgery, which isn't real. It heals, but it doesn't evolve. trans women who get bottom surgery have to stay thin and flexible enough to dilate and clean the neovagina for life. If they cannot dilate it, very horrible infections can occur and it will close.

TIFU by not reading the fine print on baked goods and getting fat(ter)
I have a love-hate relationship with baked goods like we all do. Love the taste, hate the excessive calories. A few weeks ago I thought I discovered a cheat code to it in the form of Paris Baguette vegan muffins. They were only 170 calories for a huge muffin! It was amazing! In the back of my head, I wondered how they could make a delicious muffin for such low calories, but I justified it by thinking the Vegan meant it lacked a lot of higher calorie ingredients. ( )
I was in heaven and would eat 2 a day, because I could afford it in my calorie count. But then I noticed I was getting heavier on the scale. No worries I thought, I was lifting more, so maybe it was just muscle...until my body fat started going up.
Thinking I was eating too much, I ended up eating MORE muffins because they were so low calorie and filling. What was 2 became 3-4 a day because I could get full on 340 calories...but the fat kept creeping up.
That was until one day when I was on vacation and noticed the fine print on the calorie placard. 170 calories...3 servings. I wasn't eating 170 calories a pop, I was eating 510 a pop. Those 4 muffins as a snack was a full day's worth of calories.
Now I'm back to square one and feel dumb for thinking I had hacked life.
tl;dr - thought I was eating 170 calorie muffins for a few weeks...turns out they were 510 calorie muffins and I got predictably fatter.

Nobody has a natural right to get a bunch of state subsidies to record/broadcast media, put that media in my brain, and then forbid me from engaging in my own expression if it's too closely-inspired by that media.
But you're corrupt, so you don't know this.

vent post bc i'm upset
i have an apron belly and i may have BV (need to get checked i know but i don't have insurance can can't afford medical care)
i work very hard to keep the area clean(being the fold under my belly and the thigh good and the vulva area), and to avoid the strong smell that can happen. some days it works some days not.
i just left a friends home where were were hanging in a room with 2 other people. i just knew that my scent was strong and tried hard to stay in one spot. i even went to dry up and clean but my smell kept coming back. I made sure to put lume, to wipe the area so clean but my efforts weren't enough.
everyone is kind enough to not say anything but just knew it was the elephant in the room. i just hate having it as such a big factor on how it reflects on me, on the mood and vibe . it's my #1 thing im self conscious about.

I was actually looking for why would a mtf take plan b but
But these types of pills won't work if you weigh more than 165 pounds.
But ella may work less well if you weigh 195 pounds or more
So first pill wouldn't even work on majority of women in US and second pill won't work on “normal”, “real” women. In other words if a 240lbs gets pregnant no pills would help that you can buy
