Accept it and then work on it

So she weighs 100 Kg, she does not even weigh 100 Kg; but she cannot feel herself. She thinks she is Fat!!!  She can even not stand herself, she feels disgusted when she sees her body in a mirror. "I want to vomit" she often mumbles. 

Why did it get there? What happened to her?

Fat people are very often bullied, looked down at and most of the time discriminated nearly worldwide. While some in some countries being fat means being healthy. With today advancements in medicine, people who are overweighted are more inclined in some diseases and the fact is known. This statement may sound controversial to some but it is the bitter pill that heals. 

Why do people become fat? Because they have a different metabolism that works that way, because they eat a lot and simply because they are like that. We should not stigmatise people because of the way they look. We often do not embrace what we do not like or what does not meet our views and opinions and that is sad. In doing so, we make other people feel bad in their skins and beings.

I can recall that a lot of people do not deliberately decide to become big and at some point, it even impedes them and they become impotent and completely dependable on other people. A lot of people find emotional refuge in foods because they lacked and missed that while growing up. The parents were never home, or always fighting, never finding time for them and they find their consolation in food. 

Unfortunately, consumerism that offers, ofthen judges as well. It compels you to buy and criticizes the consequences saying that "you are too fat". 

I do not condemn those who say to other people that they are fat. Yes, they are, and they do know it. No one needs to repeat it to them and make them feel ashamed of who they are. 

I came to understand that with a lot of people who are largely of a bigger proportion of weight, the centre issue is the ability to accept how they are and how they look. I am not in their skins and I can only guess that it is not easy at all, as well as very frustrating. 

True, being fat is in the physical condition but stigmatization affects the emotional condition. A lot of people have difficulty reconciling those two. you cannot work on something you deny. 

Accept it and work on it.
