Not to mention it’s like innately saying every body should be striving to be as thin as possible 🙄

It’s really impractical to use your retirement account to pay for your groceries.

I don’t think people realize how much constantly stressing out your body increases your risk of developing autoimmune diseases.

Cynthia McKelvey :
Sometimes I feel like the word “fuel” is misleading bc it likens the body to a machine, which it isn’t. At least not in the sense that we understand machines. I think so much diet culture is rooted in the fact that we think we know so much more about how the body functions than we actually do

I lost my period at a healthy weight do do low energy availability from over exercising. so yeah, everyone needs to fuel themselves, especially before a workout regardless of body size.

Arthur Morgan Mustache Ride 🐎 :
It’s been a long time since I did kinesiology and physiology in college, but exercise burning fat usually happens after the exercise when the muscles are activated and in recovery, what is being used for fuel/energy first is carbs

They don’t actually care, all that matters to them is that strangers look as skinny as possible, or more accurately, that strangers virtue signal about caring about looking as skinny as possible.

That commenter probably also doesn’t think a fat person can die of starvation or be malnourished if they continue to be fat or don’t become underweight.

it's very kind of you to try and explain this to someone who is fundamentally uninterested in learning because their entire POV on the subject is just bigotry
