Okay im tryna see something here. Does health correlate with beauty? For example I am healthy but I weight a lot, I mean a lot, however everyone including my parents tell me I’ll look prettier if I get healthier meaning if I lose weight. That’s mean right

I think yes BUT being healthy or becoming healthy doesn’t always = losing weight. It can also be eating right using good skincare getting enough sleep etc

Someone made the argument that if u are healthy u feel prettier but that’s still the feeling, not actually being prettier. Also like we all have the common goal here, me loosing weight, u don’t need to bring in health her being like im being unhealthy, i know i need to lose weight but u don’t need to say im unhealthy when im not even pre diabetic, u cant just bring health into it cuz u want me to feel worse on the way i look.

standards of beauty do correlate with weight and people think weight = health, but really, they’re all dependent on the person

Yeah I’m just talking in the sense that this world always correlates health with beauty in terms of loosing weight. Like oh ur fat, the automatic assumption is that ur unhealthy. I am so healthy that I have the worst genetics, like cancer, diabetes, u name it runs in my family. But I don’t have any illness. I have been fat since I was a kid and it’s always like ur unhealthy from the literal diabetic uncle, like im not even pre diabetic, I don’t have nothing wrong with me but u wanna say…

I’m unhealthy. My entire life, even now at my big age of 22, my moms still on that train of if I don’t want u to get sick, until today when she was like skinny is beauty, like stop hiding behind health when u wanna tell someone to loose weight, just say ur fat phobic, show ur true colors and maybe the person ur doing it to will show u their true colors but cutting u out of their lives
