Fat Acceptance vs diet culture: Which is worse?
The 2000's was a crazy time when thin was most definitely in and anyone above a size 2 was deemed "fat". Toxic "diet culture" encouraged starvation diets and the eating low fat trend. However, obesity rates were also higher than they had ever been...today they are even higher.
The body positive movement sought to fight back against "diet culture" and embrace bodies that didn't fit the unrealistic beauty standards of the 2000's. However, the body positive movement is also encouraging "health at every size", even though more young people than ever are dying from heart attacks and being diagnosed with diabetes and hypertension.
So, which is more harmful, diet culture or obesity?

Is Weight Loss Key To Manifesting Your Dreams?
Did you have treat/cheat meals while losing weight?
I never specifically set aside days for cheat days or thought about it like that, at least not that year. But there were days when I caved into cravings or ate more than I should. I definitley wasn't perfect. As the year progressed and I learned more about healthy eating, I tried to substitute certain treats for lower calorie versions. Like lower calorie ice cream instead of full fat, full sugar ice cream. Any little changes you can make add up and can be very helpful.
Why the holier than thou feel the need to share their opinion with someone about the way they look is beyond me. My bad habits make me who I am Who are they to tell me to change. The bottom line is only I can truly decide to change and, make a difference in my life. And when I am ready to do that I will.
This goes for anyone. You never have to explain yourself. Do what makes you happy and feels good for you otherwise you’ll never be happy. Just remember no matter how hard you try to please people someone always has something negative to say but if you’re happy then their negativity can’t touch you 💜
This came up on my feed exactly when I needed it. This is my mindset exactly. I want to change and that's okay. I'm going to work on my weight loss ❤
Good luck! ❤️
What age was the first photo?
I think 11-12? I don’t have any pics at 14 when I started losing weight. My heaviest was 230
@@Whitney_Holcombe-author Oh wow!! Good job girl, keep going at it! 💖
Wow wonderfull job
Thanks!
I know exactly what you mean, you being truthful to yourself by being honest with others. Yes, that's the way to go
If this was my girl shed have zero time for vidoes. Bedroom miss!
Wow! So you didn’t follow keto or vegan diet. I’m so impressed! My doctor keeps trying to get me to use Wegovy
No, I don’t think those diets would have been sustainable for me. It’s tough to do it on your own but possible when you’re really motivated and determined! My advice if you do decide to do Wegovy is to continue doing your best to eat healthy and balanced meals and use Wegovy as a tool to help you learn how to control portion sizes!
Great message
so no matter what happens you always want more? thats a red flag
YES I BELIEVE IT IS SO❤
so having standards and goals are good.
💯
I've taken both roads. Alot of times, the easy road IS the best road.
Thank you Whitney , needed that 💗 you are Amazing .. very inspiring story
I'm glad you found it helpful! Thank you so much for watching!
My goal this weekend: to maintain 10k steps a day.
Love that! Walking is the ultimate exercise
Shallow-ness..... not sure if it's a word, but people are just pathetic sometimes. I lost almost 90 pounds. Kept it off too. People were dicks.
Thanks for this info. I really appreciate it 😊
You’re welcome thanks for watching!
Congrats on your achievement. For so many people it's easier just to be a victim or blame it on genetics etc.
Thank you!!!
Very brave of you! I'm impressed with your confidence! I never went through massive weightloss and I still wouldnt have the courage lol. Your skin looks pretty great though. The stretchmarks a barely noticeable. Your stomach looks like any fit woman after having ONE child so you're probably on par with or better than most. Legs look great, ass and arms could use a little toning. If you don't want skin removal, adding muscle is the next best thing!
Thank you! Yes, I am working on building muscle for more definition. I think that will help some. But loose skin is what it is unfortunately it’s the reality of obesity and weight loss. No one can be perfect but we can all work on being the best version of ourselves! Thanks for watching!
I agree that being healthy is objectively better than not being healthy and I accept that people may treat you better, consider you more employable etc. however, I think many people would argue that if people are fat phobic, then it's on those people to fix their opinions rather than the fat person to "fix" themselves so that others are more comfortable around them. As you know, many people are overweight because of food addiction and mental health disorders like trauma, poor coping mechanisms, and impulse control issues. Even if they are able to refrain from over eating, it doesn't necessarily mean that the problems that lead to their obesity are resolved. For example, if you trade food for cocaine then you'll become skinny quickly and reap all of the social rewards and self confidence your speak of without becoming any healthier or happier in your life. I think a better pitch would be (obviously) a healthy balanced life style will improve your overall happiness. If you make efforts to sleep properly, eat clean, move your body, go outside, connect with friends and family and find time for things you enjoy - you will become happier, healthier and lose weight in the process.
You must be from a young generation. My generation, growing up in the 60's, it was rare that anyone was fat. Everything in society has changed so that kids are not as active, more junk food. Sure a lot of people may have trauma and issues that leads them to over eating, but with so many obese people around that means there are a lot of people with supposed trauma in their lives....maybe it's just the dysfunctional society we live in.
Thanks for triggering my anorexia/bulimia. Gonna go throw up now. Cause nothing tastes as good as skinny feels right?
I'm sorry if you're struggling with an ed. This video and almost all of my content clearly centers around weight loss. This may not be the channel for you.
It is nobody's fault for "triggering" you. You became triggered because you made the decision to click on a video centered around weight loss and were mad that a person is preaching it's benefits. I would recommend working with a specialized psychiatrist to treat your disorder and discuss with them your various triggers so that they can provide you with healthier coping mechanisms
Perhaps you should grow up and take responsibility for yourself- nobody is responsible for you being triggered other than you, and you won't recover unless you take charge of yourself
You’re missing boobs
And yet I’m perfectly happy, successful, and beautiful so…🤷🏻♀️
Wow what a beautiful girl you are - yes you were pretty throughout but you just glow now with health and happiness. Congratulations on the weight loss and determination in both that and the psychological changes you also made in your life. Isn't it also just a total joy to watch someone who has done this journey and successfully achieved it and not fallen into the FA hole x
Thank you! And thank you for watching!
I've been both and skinny wins every time! nothing tastes as good as being skinny feels! xx
Kate Moss said "nothing tastes as good as skinny feels" and she rightly got called out. "In a previous interview, the supermodel has expressed her regret at the motto and praised the diversity in the modelling industry at current."
It does, I can keep up with my kid and my genetic condition hasn't flared up in a long time. However, it's important to inform those that you may lose friends when you lose weight and people may not treat you the same. Either better or worse.
True, not everyone can accept when you change, even for the better
What a toxic person 😂😂😂😂
Toxic for saying healthier is better? 🤔
I think you made a lot of good points! I'm someone who has been trying to get healthier for years, making small changes to my lifestyle, and I've noticed the snowball effect it had on my life. This year I'm putting more effort into losing weight because I want to be a healthier person entering my 30's. My biggest advice to anyone trying to lose weight is not to give up. It truly does get easier with time.
Yes I agree, you can never give up. You never know when “trying one more time” is going to be the time you are successful. Congrats on your health journey!
Ok good.
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
And finally you don't eat, you slave away on work outs and if you have an ice cream or something that doesn't taste like cardboard, you gain all the weight back and get suicidal.... Nope stay fat people
Nope not at all! I’ve kept the weight off for 20 years. It’s all about balance. I definitely eat but I also definitely exercise which is what our bodies were made to do…
shaming works we need to bring it back! Stop trying to make it a sob story, your were fat then got skinny! you did the work be proud!
Nope, shaming definitely does not work. It's just an excuse to be an asshole. This is not a sob story. This is pointing out that full grown adults like you think it's okay to bully little kids. It's never okay.
That's crazy because the kid at my middle school who was "shamed" (bullied) ended up committing su!c!de. You're gross.
Press X for doubt
It was easy for me too. I lost 130lbs in about two and a half years. Never went to the gym, just walked three times a day and ate as healthy as I could. I feel better now in my early 30s than I ever did in my 20s
Oh wow that’s awesome good for you! Walking is the best exercise. That’s all I did at first too.
We all got bullied by adults it’s just how they were. I was bullied by my parents for being skinny. Deal with it and don’t judge yourself from bully’s opinions lady try a salad just like I forced down food
Never said I took anyone's opinion about myself into consideration. The point was to point out that adults shouldn't bully children. If you can't understand that then maybe you're part of the problem.
My friends and I bully each other about our weight because we all need to lose some to be healthy. We do it because we want each other around as ling as possible. People may not like it but its done thru love.
That's not the same as being a jerk to someone you don't know when they are minding their own business and have nothing to do with you. It's also never okay for an adult to bully a child for any reason.
It's called Helping
What’s helping? Bullying a little girl?
You're amazing both ways. Sweetie, I'm 60 years old, fairly good shape and still look young.All the people that were bullying me.Let's just say I would rather be where i'm at than where they are at.
Agreed! Karma is real 😉
Ma’am, rather than selling this as a sob story, sell it like an origin story. I was a fat kid, a fat teenager and was fat shamed. What hurt me made me stronger and more determined to prove them wrong. I’m still not what most people would consider “skinny” but am considered “medium” by European standards. Use those hurtful words and turn them into motivation. Brush those criticisms off like water off a duck and accept the truth for what it is.
I don't consider this a sob story! I very much have become stronger and proved many people wrong. A few years after this took place, I lost 100 pounds on my own, became a model, wrote a book, and have kept the weight off. However, the point of the story was to touch on fat discrimination being a real thing. It was also to point out that full grown adults bully children, which should never be acceptable. Pointing out others wrongdoing is not playing victim, that adult man was absolutely wrong for bullying a child. I understand your point of view however and congratulate you on your own weight loss journey!
Don’t tell them what to feel! Go away!

It's good to see you able to speak about it and share this with others. Thank you.
I appreciate that, thank you!
Wow Whitney I am so sorry that happened to you, and that should not happen to any child, making them feel that way! Disney is supposed to be a safe speak space, you probably internalized that from being traumatized!! I want to say that you are such beautiful woman inside and out and love that you are speaking on this and helping others! ❤
Thank you Alexis!❤️
I relate, although with me it was bullying (physically) at age 10. Later, at 13 I would be molested by a family friend of the age of 33 years old: a man married to a beautiful woman with a daughter (10 years old) and a set of boy twins (8 years old), and I considered these young children my own friends!!!! It's incredible how cruel this world is, but it also shows how we can overcome so much. GOD hates for any children to be mistreated in any unfair way!!!! Those yucky people reap what they, themselves, have sown. We also get to reap what was sown against us, in a positive way. Thank you again for sharing.
I'm so sorry you had to go through that. There are some truly cruel people in this world. I am glad you have overcome it and it has made you a stronger person. You have the right attitude about life! I also believe bad people will get what is coming to them. Karma is real!❤️
A really nice video, thank you. But your "you know" in language is too much. I hope you don't get upset i told you. Kisses
😂 It’s a bad habit I’m trying to break. If anyone made a drinking taking shots every time I said “you know” I fear they might be put in hospital 🙈
34 times. Sometimes back to back every other word but some of the info was useful
@@Scrumpleey Oh Lord 🤦🏻♀
I lost like 30-40lbs when I was 12 and I still have some looseness, specifically in my belly and upper-inner thighs. I’m pretty sure part of why I still have it is yo-yo weight gain I had a couple of times and lost again. But part of it might just be that I started out pretty, overweight. I don’t think I’ll ever really look as toned as I want, although yoga and Pilates have helped immensely.
Ugh, I feel you. I lost my weight almost 20 years ago and still have loose skin. I don't think it ever really goes away or tightens back to where it used to be. I do think that building more muscle and just being fitter in general helps reduce the appearance of it though.
That shrimp is such a badass
