Things you wish you could say

I really dislike all this “healthy at every size” that’s been trending the past year or so. I’m sorry to break it to you but if you’re 300 lbs you are NOT healthy. Being overweight causes SO many health complications. People are just in denial and don’t want to put in the effort to loose the weight, so they came up with “healthy at every size”

Having a couple, or even a couple dozen, chickens in your backyard does NOT make you a 'farmer'! SMH.

You do NOT have to butcher all the extra males and cull the hens at year two to be a "real" farmer (yes I have been told that before.)

I agree, although you can be overweight and still be healthy. A skinny person who only eats chips STILL isn't more healthy than a fat person who only eats chips

Well.... devils advocate here. The skinny person may not be healthier nutrition wise, but the larger person also has that extra weight wearing down joints constantly where a skinny person does not

Yes, that's a factor.

I'm just speaking for my mother, mostly. She's overweight and barley eats. She claims shes too busy, or forgets. It isn't always a over eating thing, its just that every body is different and some bodies are naturally overweight. Slow Vs. fast metabolism

Yeah, regardless, she is probably not quite as healthy as a skinny person.

Different people have different bodies. Different bodies work differently.
