The fat acceptance tag is for people who want to feel good in their bodies, posting disrespectful and triggering stuff isn’t helping anyone.

What about people with chronic pain so severe they cant exercise? My father has serious disk issues in his back and cannot do anything real, anything more intense than walking a few hundred yards to get the mail, and a little bit of physical therapy, which focuses less on weight loss things like cardio and more on things to strengthen up those muscles and reduce back pain.

But he’s gained weight since his problems started and he’s not physically capable of getting rid of them.

I have issues with exercise because of both mental and physical health issues, and because i have a history with anorexia, making attempts to do any kind of diet or count nutrients triggers those tendencies in me again even though i no longer care about my weight, but just simply because it returns my brain to that obsessive mindset. And it’s healthier for me to be 200 pounds then to develop anorexia again.

Science also has proven that significant, permanent weight loss is nearly impossible and that achieving it almost always requires unhealthy diets and extreme exercise. No one will tell you that, because they want to keep selling you slimming clothes and diet plans and gym memberships, but it’s true, and though i don’t have links for you on that I’d bet @fatphobiabusters does. You could also find them yourself rather easily by scrolling their blog and checking their tags.
