Four "Healthy at Any Size" Social Media Influencers Have Died Before They Reached Age 45

Hey social media monitors, I have some Dangerous Medical Misinformation you might want to take a look at.

Oh wait, you consider young obese women to be part of the Coalition of the Ascendant so they can propagate whatever harmful disinformation they like and make mad stacks of cash off telling people how to commit slow-motion suicide.

These four social media influencers were swept up by a movement that claims obesity is perfectly healthy... The tragic truth is they have all died under the age of 45

Influencers such as 31-stone Brittany Sauer have tragically lost their lives
By Jo Macfarlane

The final videos posted to Brittany Sauer's TikTok page make for upsetting viewing. Speaking tearfully to the camera, the 31-stone social media star, who often posted defiantly 'body-positive' content about how 'hot' she felt in certain outfits, admitted with shocking candour that she had 'ruined her life' with food and binge eating.

Wolfus Aurelius writes:

1 One "stone" is 14 lbs. This 31-stone woman weighed 434 pounds.

A very overweight gal, then.

And it had left her, aged just 28, full of regrets.
Brittany had been a virtual prisoner in her own home for two years, dealing with type 2 diabetes and repeated bouts of the skin infection cellulitis which had caused a growth in her pelvis weighing more than two stone. She had even been forced to ask someone else to cut her toenails, as it left her 'too breathless'.
Yet she hoped, desperately, that it wasn't too late to save herself. 'I'm scared I'm going to end up in a bad place that my body can't recover from,' she said to her half-a-million TikTok followers. 'I want you to know it's not worth it -- food isn't worth your life.'
Within a week of posting the film last December, Brittany was dead.
Her death turns a spotlight on the controversial body positivity and 'fat acceptance' movements that have seduced Brittany and millions of vulnerable young people like her.
The past decade has seen extraordinary momentum building around a central argument that being obese doesn't have to mean unhealthy. In other words, you can be fat and fit.
Branded Health At Every Size, or HAES, the philosophy has, at its heart, laudable goals. It aims to counter the multi-billion-dollar diet industry -- which has a poor record when it comes to long-term, sustainable weight loss -- and act as an antidote to the stigma encountered by people struggling with their weight....
The US edition of Cosmopolitan magazine was criticised for running covers featuring plus-size women in yoga poses under the headline: 'This is healthy.' As part of a drive to challenge beauty stereotypes, it also featured US plus-size model Tess Holliday -- who at 5ft 3in and 300lb has a BMI of 53, more than double the healthy range -- a decision condemned 'as dangerous and misguided'.
Self-styled 'fat activists', meanwhile, not only promote larger bodies as healthy but reject decades of science which prove the dangers of excess body fat, encouraging devotees to ignore doctors who recommend they lose weight....
One organisation, HAES UK, described weight-loss surgery as 'mutilating body parts' and 'not compatible with loving your body as it is'. And those who criticise it are labelled 'fat-phobic' or 'anti-woke'.

Sucking out excess fat is mutilating your body but lopping off your penis or breasts is just "affirming who you really are."

Little wonder that experts have described the movement as a 'cult'. Some say this so-called 'body positive' approach is also putting vulnerable young people at risk by failing to point out the unpalatable scientific truth: that obesity dramatically increases the risk of a wide range of chronic and life-limiting diseases.
In some cases, they say, it could prove attractive to those with binge eating disorders, like US-born Brittany. After all, she is not the only one to lose her life.

The article lists two other fat influencers who died very young.

And then:

A well-known activist, professor of 'fat studies' Dr Cat Pausé, who questioned the links between weight and health, lost her life aged 42. Based at Massey University in New Zealand, she also presented a 'fat positive' radio show.

She had said: 'The science isn't quite as clear cut as we'd like to believe and there's not really quite a consensus yet about the relationship between weight and health.
'Obese people, and even morbidly obese people, have just as good health or better health than someone in the normal weight range.' She died in March 2022 from causes which have not been made public.

...
Fat Pride has become a central new battle ground in America's culture war[.]
Ms Le Brocq [an obesity researcher] says her encounters with activists have been 'quite cultish -- everyone seems to think and speak the same way, as if they've got a handbook to recite from', adding. 'There's this idea that if you're big you should stay that way, whatever the cost.'
...
Dr Asher Larmie, a GP based in Hertfordshire and one of the UK's more public proponents of HAES, believes doctors should not recommend weight loss.
Posting to his 14,000 followers on Instagram as @thefatdoctor, he uses slogans such as 'fat and thriving' and 'you do not need to lose weight to improve your health'. However, Dr Larmie does concede that 'people who are fat are more likely to have certain conditions', although he says the evidence does not prove excess fat is the cause.
He explains: 'What is more important in driving illness is chronic stress, the impact of repeated dieting, and weight stigma and discrimination which means fat people receive far poorer care.

Everything but the fat. It's not the fat that drives obesity related diseases -- it's the stress of society shaming people for being fat, and the metabolic stress of dieting.

Oh, and fat people are discriminated against (doctors tell them they should lose weight!) so the fact they get sick and die young is really just due to outdated ideas held by the White Supremacist medical industry.

...
Dr Larmie's approach is not to mention weight or diets at all, and instead find out what might improve an individual's overall wellbeing.
'I find what activity makes them happy and ask them to incorporate more of it in their daily lives, whether that's walking on the beach, gardening or cleaning the house. If they enjoy it, it's sustainable and will keep them moving in the longer term. I'll look at someone's daily diet and work out ways of eating better, but without restrictions.

What makes fat people happy is often overeating. Should they do more of that, "Doctor"?

One thing the HAES cultists do is vigorously monitor their fellow cultists' behavior and shame and bully them if they become non-HAES compliant. Some girls in these social media groups, and some "fat acceptance" influencers, announce that they've been feeling unwell and so they're going to try to shed a bit of weight. Not a lot; few of the people in the "fat acceptance" movement want to be thin (or will admit it, if they do). These are girls who are 60-100 (or more) pounds overweight talking about losing 10-20 pounds, for crying out loud. To see if their sleep improves, or their energy and mood improves, etc.

These girls are immediately #Cancelled by the cultists and attacked with as much body-shaming harshness as any fat person has received for being fat.

They're always claiming they're "healthy," and the proof they offer for that is that these very obese girls have high hip and leg flexibility. Some can even do splits.

And they go: "Look, I'm healthy."

Of course, most women have high hip and leg flexibility and most can do a split if they work at it for a few months. So this doesn't prove they're healthy; it merely proves they are biological women with women's open-ish hip attachments.

It would be like obese guys saying "Look, I'm healthy, I can bench press 100 pounds." Uh, yes. Virtually anyone can, if not just automatically with no training, then in three or four weeks, tops.

But you know -- healthy at any size.

The human frame was not designed, or did not evolve (depending on your view), for that. Bones, muscles, tendons, internal organs, and the heart are not up to the task of moving something that weighs as much as a four-cylinder engine.

Possible too that some of these people had their hearts or other organs damaged by the clot shot.

28 "Health" has lost all meaning when doctors are willing to euthanize old and disabled people, kill children in the womb, and mutilate children.

For a word like "healthy" to mean anything, it needs to be an objective standard outside of a person's individual preferences, and as a logical consequence, people can be wrong about what is good for them. Once that standard starts being chipped away at to accommodate what people think are good for themselves, there's no logical stopping point preventing people from defining that things like obesity can be healthy if the person just really gets the sads thinking that they're not healthy just already just the way they are.

- Ace

I mean, to train to do splits many people will put weight on their shoulders to help push down and stretch, so it's not a shock that putting 300 extra pounds would help stretch if you try to do a split.

That extra weight on you 24/7 also helps stretch your knees ligaments too..... which aren't supposed to stretch.

There is a kernel of truth to that. There *are* people who are fat but strong and healthy with good lung capacity and heart function. And there are people of equivalent health across a range of weights.

But none of those weights fall into the "really high" category. At some point, the underlying variables basically stop mattering.

Exactly. For women, size 2-20 likely ends up being healthy if you are eating decently and exercising moderately. Size 42 is not healthy.

By not wanting to offend those who fall 10-20lbs above normal, we glorify those 200+ lbs above normal. One is okay. One is not.

Sure, the people in these wretched shows are generally there for the viewer to pity, but what bothers me is that there never seems to be anyone in their lives to say, "Hang on, you need to stop eating and start exercising! NO ONE is meant to weigh 600 pounds!"

This isn't happening with men. Male models are still buff and ripped. They're not replacing Jason Momoa as Aquaman with Jack Black or David French.

65 I'm gonna make this a GAINZ thread!

Just over a week ago, I finally fell back in completely to my strength training. I'm not tracking my weight (it's about 190, and I'm 6'2, so it's not like I'm massively overweight or anything), but the look is changing surprisingly quickly.

I'm doing at least 30 minutes of strength a day. 10 minutes on the core everyday, 20 minutes of legs one day and then 30-40 minutes of upper body the next, alternating. I'm really pushing my upper body weight choices to try and get those bulgy arms.

We're going to Hawaii in April, and I wanna look good.

The Brits who will chide us for not adopting SI, still use "stone" for body weight. It's engrained.

By the way, in odd Imperial thing, 2 stone is a "quarter weight", 4 is a half, and 8 is a "hundredweight", 112 lbs. A long ton is then 20 hundredweight. So there's were a "hundred" is 112 lbs in Imperial.

97 As with mental illness too, believing that you're okay, as a 400 lb person, will lead to more instances of mental illness/ depression.

You're justifying your bad behavior and bad life choices, telling yourself your perfect and better than everyone. Now when the slightest thing doesn't go your way, you take it so much worse.

Accepting that your bad behavior is bad, even if you don't necessarily do something to fix it, is at least a step towards being stable at least.

98 When I get 10 pounds too heavy (which I am now) it bothers me to no end. Too hard to lose weight in the Christmas season what with all the goodies around but I guarantee I’ll lose probably 15 pounds or more in January and February; every year for the last 20 at least my New Year’s resolution is to lose the holiday weight. I actually keep that resolution every year without fail.

BTW… as someone who does a lot of exercise (running and cycling) I’ve learned over the years that exercise does not lead to weight loss…. One needs to control their diet to lose weight. I once gained weight training for a triathlon because I ate everything in sight during those 6 months

I don’t know how the fatties live with themselves

104 Of course, most women have high hip and leg flexibility and most can do a split if they work at it for a few months. So this doesn't prove they're healthy; it merely proves they are biological women with women's open-ish hip attachments.

It would be like obese guys saying "Look, I'm healthy, I can bench press 100 pounds." Uh, yes. Virtually anyone can, if not just automatically with no training, then in three or four weeks, tops.

I think there may actually be a lot of people who don't understand this.

I was in a class where the subject of a girl's weight came up. (She was thin, but still I didn't bring it up.)

When she said she was 115 pounds, one guy chuckled and said "I could bench press you!"

I was sitting there shocked because I could do that in eighth grade, when I weighed much less than that. (I was pretty much a stick until my senior year of high school, at which point I became a slightly thicker stick.)

I don't think people understand absolutely baseline capabilities.

I further don't think they understand the vast difference between male and female bodies.

The shame of fatness probably does drive some to be more isolated and to eat more. But they generally would choose to be thin, if it didn't take so much "discipline". Acceptance of The Problem is the first step to the cure ... blame shifting avoids personal responsibility, and the problem gets worse.

127 'Partially, but modern food is too convenient and too calorie dense for the avg person to out-exercise. It's mostly terrible eating habits.'

Point taken, and I was too stringent in my post (the complete obsession with diet just irks me). Clearly it is a matter of both intake and output.

However, if you look at this nation over a century ago when it was still largely agricultural, the diet consisted of a lot of 'fattening' foods (buttermilk, fried foods) over multiple daily meals. However, obese people were scarce, because all those calories were burnt off laboring from sunup to sundown.

140 Look at all the mags doing the plus size model thing.

the worst offenders are the ones allegedly dedicated to health and fitness. I got a catalog from Athleta, a retailer that specializes in work out clothes. The models were dangerously obese and looked hideous in the tights and yoga pants. The fabric outlined and accentuated every bulge and pocket of cellulite. I actually felt bad that these fat girls were being exploited.

Oh, and fat people are discriminated against (doctors tell them they should lose weight!) so the fact they get sick and die young is really just due to outdated ideas held by the White Supremacist medical industry.

This is my experience too. I run and lift. Exercise doesn't help me lose weight, but if I don't exercise I'm sure to gain weight. And feel miserable physically and mentally. I have to be near-perfect with eating to lose weight.

I'm not obese anymore. I still have about 20 extra pounds. But I'm damn sure not happy to be pudgy, and I keep working on it. I may be relatively "healthy" at the moment but headed for diabeetus if I can't make some more progress.

190 They're always claiming they're "healthy," and the proof they offer for that is that these very obese girls have high hip and leg flexibility. Some can even do splits.

And they go: "Look, I'm healthy."

The other thing they do is show off the fact that their blood results are in the normal range for most health indicators.

It's true that a YOUNG fatty can have good bloodwork. But check back with them in ten years and they not only have awful bloodwork, but every other health indicator has cratered.

They handwave that away by claiming it's the stress of dieting, public shaming, self doubt, etc.

IOW they just didn't believe hard enough. If they believe hard enough they can stay healthy forever at 434 lbs.

It is, and these same people also have no problem with refusing the entire "body positivity" premise when it comes to men.

If a guy doesn't want to date Miss 434, he's a misogynist and a fat-shamer.

This one is by, for and targeted at women exclusively, except for trying to make men come along for the ride through guilt.

But all they are doing is destroying themselves and their bodies - mostly knees and back. Many of these scoffers hobble around now at age 62, bent over and looking more like 82.

Lift weights and control your diet. In other words: If you can exercise ...if you can run, walk...if you can walk, lie down...if you can lie down, sleep. Your body will thank you.

But stress causes me to gain and this year had been ungodly stressful.

getting fat initiates a very bad cycle of pain, inflammation, and difficulty moving around (due to the pain and inflammation) plus your heart is under a LOT of strain, so that's another negative cycle you get trapped in.

this is so sad.

307 An aerobics instructor at the gym I go to looks like she's twenty years old. She's sixty plus years of age. Close up you can kinda get a clue or two, but not much.

My friend is a 58 yr old fitness trainer. We took a day trip to the beach, no one would guess her age, she has the body of a very fit woman in her late 20s. She has had some work done on her face, so close-up you can see she's not 28...but no one would ever imagine she was anywhere near 50, let alone 60.

Granted, she is an extreme example and is obsessive about fitness. But I'd rather be in her camp than a 29 yr old posting tik toks about the vast quantities of food consumed in a day.

321 [pi]However, if you look at this nation over a century ago when it was still largely agricultural, the diet consisted of a lot of 'fattening' foods (buttermilk, fried foods) over multiple daily meals. However, obese people were scarce, because all those calories were burnt off laboring from sunup to sundown.
Posted by: norrin radd at December 19, 2023 12:46 PM (dN+2t)

Most easily found and cooked foods now are extremely processed to make them very easily digested and very high in both sugars, simple carbs and seed oils. They digest quickly, have high glycemic values, and are very inflammatory. They cause the body to create large blats of insulin, cause insulin resistance, and pump more calories into the body than it can realize are coming in.

Stuff fried in lard, cooked in buttermilk and with saturated fats is not great, but it is generally not processed and is slower in release into the system as it requires more energy to digest.
If you drink HFC sweetened soda, you can get so much more calories into your body without being sated than even if you ate a mix of crisco and white sugar.

It is not the calories, it is the food. Bad food causes bad health.

Reading comprehension is not your strong suit, hon.

We're talking about the "fat acceptance culture" in the media and social media. No one here is blaming anyone for their *own* current or past weight issues.

Probably a good time to mention this alarming campaign:
“For many people, regardless of size, stepping on the scale at the doctor’s office can be a triggering, harmful experience,” SELF magazine reported late last month.

“'Please don’t weigh me' cards may offer a solution.” If you're not familiar with these cards, they're sold by More-Love.org as part of an effort to change how health care providers think about the relationship between weight and health. The organization maintains that we live in “a fatphobic society” . . .

Yep. That tends to be true for other species as well. Larger breeds of dogs live shorter lives. Same with horses.

Carrying around a large amount of weight, even if your body is scaled for it, requires correspondingly increased energy to keep it running. Eventually that energy will be depleted through extra wear and tear and you'll die before a smaller, lighter member of that species.

368 The US government has also contributed to society's fat problem. Lobbyist inspired food pyramid indicating high consumption of grains, which in the US are usually very highly processed, didn't help. You might even get lefties to agree with this.

They didn’t prevent death either, so no, they weren’t.

Start all diets with two things:
1) you WILL die.
2) there is NO “universal rule book”. There wasn’t a “universal rule book 75 years ago. There isn’t one now. There will never be one. You HAVE to find what works for you.

Yes, but it's complicated. People of that size are addicts. Like all addicts, they can be INCREDIBLY manipulative. It's possible the person helping them is intentionally making them fat. It's also possible the person helping them has been mentally and emotionally manipulated to the point it's just not worth fighting anymore.

Also, now that we have door dash and all sorts of other delivery services, it's a lot easier for a huge shut-in to do this by themselves.

Nowzaradan should be giving each patient a scale as part of their treatment. Most of these people weigh so much that their aren't any scales they can buy at regular stores, but Amazon sells them and they are not that expensive.
Dr. Now sends them on their way and tells them to cut calories down to 1000. a day.
These people since they don't have a scale think they are doing well when in reality they are barely cutting back.
If you want to lose weight you must weigh yourself every day.

Look, processed foods (mostly carbs and "scientifically" designed "flavor enhancers") are NOT really healthy.

But a LOT of folks these days do NOT know how to cook from scratch.

How many young people these days would know what to do with a whole chicken to make it tasty?

We talk about civics classes needing restored to schools. We also need basic home ec, and other "adulting" courses added back in!

My kids didn't have these basics either (they are in their 30's now), but we did "train" them at home by having them "help" at home during ALL the meal preps to the point where my oldest daughter is now correcting US! Good times!

434 The final videos posted to Brittany Sauer's TikTok page make for upsetting viewing. Speaking tearfully to the camera, the 31-stone social media star, who often posted defiantly 'body-positive' content about how 'hot' she felt in certain outfits, admitted with shocking candour that she had 'ruined her life' with food and binge eating.

A stone is 14 pounds. 31 stone is 434 pounds. I don't know how tall she is, but that's dangerous.

Well she isn't 35 feet tall that's for sure.

There was a comedy show called the Bickersons about a couple arguing that had a sequence where he complained about the terrible stuffing in a chicken.

Wife replied "Stuffing? It wasn't EMPTY"

438 Science reports that men prefer meat, where women prefer sugars. This goes back to the caveman days where men would go out and hunt for food, and women would stay in the cave, sitting on their fat asses eating chocolate.

Actually this likely is an adaptation for women, who did much of the gather part of hunter/gathering, could find ripe fruit by the sweetness. That and grain harvested from wild plants and raising small animals women provided the bulk of calories. Men prefer meat for building the muscle mass to wander and find more meat, which has concentrated calories compared to what can be found on plants.

You're 2/3rds of the way through a box of Ding-Dongs? You (and everyone else here) need to go straight to YouTube and watch the Cluster Pluckers sing their song "Ding-Dong" - the 'sing along' version is the best. It will help you resist the urge. Or at least amuse you.

I read this as flatulencers.

441 Our culture loves to swing between extremes: anorexia to obesity, super fit athleticism to nerdish obsession with video games; whatever sells the most ad space and manipulates the masses. My brother had a best friend in college who was into this new craze in the 70’s—jogging. They were jogging one day at the YMCA and his friend dropped dead from a massive heart attack—age 21. I know of people who have lost loved ones to cancer and heart attacks who were always careful to eat only the healthiest of foods and exercised daily. They passed away with a very fit body. All we can do is do our best to take good care of ourselves and live life to the fullest. No one is guaranteed a long healthy life, fit or overweight..

443 'I find it very difficult to talk folks out of running - especially those that do it for long distances. Call it the "runners high" syndrome, but they all scoff at you. But all they are doing is destroying themselves and their bodies - mostly knees and back. Many of these scoffers hobble around now at age 62, bent over and looking more like 82.'

Agreed. The human body evolved for walking, not running 10 miles a day on hard pavement.

444 Just saying... if "body possitivity" is about loving your body as it is, isn't that approach in direct conflict with the LGBTQ doctrine of changing your body to suit your delusion? Because "I self identify as"... is an affirmative statement of delusion.

446 The problem/delusion appears to be self correcting.
Think of it as evolution in action.
