Because I hated the way that I looked.
And so I was excited when the opportunity came to change it.
I was like, oh, fuck yes, get me out of here.
And I feel like maybe that wasn't your situation.
Well, two things in terms of the movement.
What do you think?
So we've been talking about this a lot, how like Ozempic has erased the body positive movement.
And it's like, well, obviously it has, because I think for a lot of body positive people,
it's sort of just like a bandaid.
Like they don't love the way that they look, but what they're going to spend their life hating themselves.
So they work on like the mental gymnastics of getting to a place of body positivity.
But most fat people do not want to be fat.
That's sort of like the underlying thing that if they had this magic thing, which Ozempic is, they would take it in a second.
So I don't know why everybody's so surprised when like everybody's losing weight.
Nobody wants to be fat.
And I just feel like I wasn't there yet.
I think that's a minority of the body positive movement, which is why the body positive movement is like not being erased, but it's not what it was.
Cause like it's hard.
It's a hard life.
Like I feel like so many things I discovered when I lost weight, like it's like, I didn't even realize how the other half was living.
