Now this one might…rub you a little. Let me preface this post by saying, whatever you want to be, you can be, and I don’t care. If you want to be 500 lbs and fork lift your way to the grocery store, seriously, it’s none of my business. I almost look at someone’s size the same I consider their sexual orientation…what you do in bed at night is your business, not mine. ;)
If any of you have seen those Jenny Craig commercials you might have caught Queen Latifah’s new one where she has now lost 20 lbs.

I have a feeling for her that it’s the just the beginning and “Lean Latifah” may be a new nickname, but that’s just a hunch. I think overall she looks great and will continue to care about her health and well being.
Now it should be known as a little one I was quite a big fan of the Queen. We won’t talk about my pale ass dancing to U.N.I.T.Y when I was a ghetto young one…that might have been too much to share…let’s just say that be it “Just another day” or “Last Holiday,” I have always been a Latifah fan.
The only thing I was never a fan of, and in general I am not a fan of, is the notion of being proud of obesity as if there was something noble to it. The Queen had a little bit of that going on, and SHE has noted it and said it was wrong, that she was “uninformed.”
I’m a fan of moderation; just as I see that there is nothing noble in deprivation, I don’t see anything noble in excess. This isn’t about peer pressure or conforming to Hollywood, this is about understanding what 50 extra pounds of fat CAN do to the body.
I come to deliver you a message of truth. IF you are proud of being obese and think that there is nobility or some sort of “freedom” in it, then you are uneducated, period. I will add too that, if you are proud of being underweight or bulimic/anorexic that is just as ridiculous. See? I am a equal-stupidity hater.
This message is NOT to those who are trying to better their lives and are stumbling or just having a hard time. I applaud you, you are who I am doing this for.
No, this is not for you.
Instead, this post is for people like this http://the-f-word.org/blog/ who seem to think that striving for a healthier, lean physique is an unhealthy thing. If you read that blog you will find just utter… well, “uneducated thought” is the nicest way I can put it.
I am all about loving oneself and being proud of who you are. However, you “pro fattys” aren’t getting the science behind things and are merely looking for a place to blame and throw your anger and denial. If you want to be obese, fine, go right ahead! But don’t tell me I am wrong for wanting to help others and myself maintain a healthier lifestyle.
I have met and worked with roughly every fat loss problem that has existed. I have taken a recovering cancer patient with NO thyroid and graves disease down to 100 pounds AND in a pretty fast amount of time with the aid of proper medication for their illness and the right training program.
There are no excuses; if you want to be overweight that is your choice. However, I don’t celebrate it, I will watch WALL-E (and laugh), and will continue to use research and trial as my guide (not fear and emotional distress). And in doing so, I will support the facts best I can.
This isn’t about anti-fat/pro-thin. This is about anti-uneducated/pro-informed.
If any of you F-Word people end up here>>>> go get informed
