#TW: weight

[lioneliness-etc]

Jason: I was just sparring with Tim. Is it just me or is he actually starting to bulk up finally?

Dick: awww baby bird is getting all grown up!

Jason: huh now that I think about it… its been since he started dating Bernard.

Dick: awwwww he’s taking such good care of our Tim!

Tim meanwhile: please help me. Bernard is a chef. He cooks so much food. He’s such a nerd about cooking and I have to eat it all because I love him. He packed me an entire cooler for lunch. What am I supposed to do with all of this??

Maybe Eddie being thinner in the beginning was because of his living conditions/mental health and now that he’s in a better place he’s gained some healing weight?

His health is horrible at the beginning for many reasons. His mental health and environment is definitely a big part. I don't know how much I want to say because Ed's backstory is up next and I don't want to explain something that will get explained in a much more interesting way later. At the start of Interrobang he's been on his own for a while and really struggling to survive. He's all alone and left to navigate himself without any help. He's trying his best to take care of himself but doesn't completely know how or have the resources to.

Ed very closely associates food and love because of how he grew up. When he lived with his grandmother she would make sure he was well fed. She was someone who grew up poor and had to deal with food scarcity, so she makes sure the people she loves never have to deal with that. His father doesn't love him and hardly ever fed him. So to Ed, his weight is a reflection of how much he is loved. When he's living with Jo, he starts being cared for. Jo isn't very good about showing affection but he does use cooking as a form of affection. So Ed can look at himself while he's gaining weight and physically see that he's being loved again. That he's not alone anymore. That he's in a much better place than he was before. Sometimes it's hard to tell how much Jo really cares about him, but he can always look at himself and remember that Jo really does love him.

hey everypony! so I have noticed a thing- a lot of people don't think sky is chubby? and I can totally see why- cuz I have been failing to draw him like I actually want him in the comic! and the reason I think this is happening is becuz I have him right next to wild (wild is a very skinny creature XD ) so my brain is going- "ah yes- this is a big sky" but then he is just drawn not the way I want him ;-; I'm gonna try to fix this in the future!!! so if you suddenly see a bigger sky than what he was last update- then that's why XD ( also side note! he is drawn skinny in chapter 1 cuz I was scared people were gonna be angry that I made him chubby- but over time when I saw people really liked fat warriors I changed him too! )

So I’m not sure if this is just me, but did anyone else think that Crosshair looked more gaunt during his time with the Empire and after compared to how he looked in Clone Wars Season 7 and the first episode of Bad Batch? Like I feel like his face looked more angular and his cheeks looked more hollow. I’m not sure if this was just my perception, but it made me so sad.

[writingsbychlo]

you’re probably overweight or obese lmao

im so sorry you’ve literally never been touched by love or affection in your life, that must be rough. sorrows, prayers 🤍

anyways, to all the girlies, don’t mind the men I’m not sure how they got on my blog but i love you all, we stay winning because a real man ain’t afraid of a woman who eats 🤍

TW: discussions of a characters weight

It’s probably been said a hundred times (or at least I hope it has) but it makes no sense why Lister gets called fat in those early seasons when he’s slim...

In Kryten you see more of his body when he changes his shirt. Both my boyfriend and I noted how he is clearly not overweight when we watched that scene the other day.

I’m not sure if Grant & Naylor had intended Lister to be overweight when they wrote the character initially and that’s why it’s included in the script? It may be because Lister is characterised as a slob and being overweight may be synonymous with that in their minds. I can’t quite remember any descriptions of Listers appearance when I listened to the audio books (other than his hair was plaited(?!)

He is not as slim as Rimmer, who also has quite the height advantage on Lister, therefore it may be easier to gaslight audiences into thinking he’s the “fat” one.

But I wonder if Listers preference for baggy and oversized clothing in S1/2 is a fashion choice or an illusion to make him look larger?

Every time I see Daniel in 2022 in the Mclaren era and he barely has any muscle on him, like he would turn and his side profile would be NOTHING - he looked ill - he’s a grown man in a high intensity sport already known for eating disorders and for an established commentator to imply he needs to be replaced BECAUSE of his weight is malicious, cruel, unnecessary and unprofessional. I know Daniel’s team is not going to pay attention to people who obviously are craving a reaction from him but sometimes I wish someone paid blake to go punch a few people in the mouth

[laura1633]

f1 twitter again forcing arguments about max & lewis looks, what is completely disgusting, bc both of them are pretty and beautiful

and with all this i remembered how last year some interviewer joked about him being “fat” at winter/summer brake… i feel so sad rn

Oh yes I remember that, that was a really ridiculous and insensitive question.

This is why I have to stay away from f1 twitter 😬. I think some people haven't worked out yet that different people can find different people attractive. To me, Max is the most attractive on the grid. If someone was to turn around and say they thought Lewis was the most attractive I wouldn't say they were wrong - it's just an opinion!

I am sure every single driver is the 'most attractive' to someone which is how it should be, life is all about variety after all !

How would Finnick react to you gaining weight after you two get together?? Like that thing where girls on tiktok talk about gaining healthy weight when they get into a healthy relationship??

-🎸

finnick loves you for you, not for your body. sure, that's some of the appeal, but he couldn't care less if you gain weight or lose weight, so long as its done in a healthy way! he thinks you're beautiful and he's a firm believer that a number on a scale does not define who you are

[overelegantstranger]

one thing i really dislike is when a symptom for an illness or concern is "difficulty losing weight". I get that if you are trying to lose weight, that may be helpful information, but it relies on this idea that there will have been a point in your life where you are intentionally trying to lose weight over a long enough term that you can say to a doctor that you are having difficulty

i just hate the presumption that everyone who isn't naturally thin must be (or have been at some point) trying to lose weight to the point that having trouble doing so is a concerning symptom you can easily spot at home

I'm not currently concerned about anything, so i'm fine in myself, but it sucks that this is a whole thing

[toddlertimess]

My brother (who lives in a different state than me and whom I haven’t seen in 2 months) told me I look like I’ve put on some weight.

Now to most people that would be an insult, but to me it is a compliment.

I know I’ve mentioned in the past that when I’m depressed/stressed/anxious/etc I stop eating. I’ll go days without eating and I drop weight really quickly.

So I’m glad that all my eating is making a positive, notable change.

Next step is to get back in the gym. Which I’m planning to do next week.

[unfortunate17]

my bras always being the first item of clothing to stop fitting is actually so sick and twisted & in no fucking way is this a pick me thing bc imagine fluctuating a few pounds here and there and needing new underwear like?????

[linked-maze]

Are there any of your Links who are fatphobic? Of course Warriors and Sky are not but what about the rest? hope this doesn’t come off as rude 😊

oh man Fatphobia??? that can be a touchy subject XD for me there are two ways of fatphobic people- there are the ones that HATE and treat fat people like trash! and think losing weight is sooo easy. Then there are the people who don't hate other fat people but are scared to become fat themselves and have some internalized fatphobia? ( I sometimes struggle with this ) ( if I'm wrong plz do tell me! I could be wrong ;w; ) anyway! yeah, some of my Links do have internalized fatphobia and are scared of becoming fat but they don't hate fat people! one of those Links is actually Warrior himself! believe it or not! He doesn’t like the way he looks and tries really hard in an unhealthy way to change it. but don't worry! he will learn in the future XD and don't worry anon! you are not rude at all!

[mynameismckenziemae]

hey mckenzie, this isn’t the usual type of asks you get but I’m just wondering what are your thoughts on drugs like wegovy or ozrmpic as a nurse? i need to lose weight and my doctor talked to me about it.

Hey nonny!

So I don’t deal with those types of meds with the specialty I work in, but this is what I do know/have heard:

All of them (ozempic, mounjaro, wegovy, zepbound, etc.) are expensive (insurance covers them for type 2 diabetes, not weight loss) and they’re hard to get because they’re in high demand.

They can make you really nauseous/sick to your stomach…which sucks, especially if you have emetophobia.

They’re injections, so if you don’t do well with needles, it’s probably not for you.

Without lifestyle changes, weight gain is likely after stopping it. Though, I have heard it does help some peoples “relationship” with food.

My biggest worry is the possible long-term effects that haven’t been discovered yet.

I’m sorry, this probably isn’t very helpful, but I don’t want to persuade you one way or the other.

Losing weight is hard 😩 But, you’re not alone. I too need to lose some. Here’s to achieving our goals in 2025 😘

*Disclaimer: this isn’t medical advice, these are just my opinions. I could be wrong 🤷🏻‍♀️ Please talk to your doctor or a pharmacist further…they know a LOT more than I do.*

I don’t talk about it much but I’ve lost almost 60lbs. But no one tells you that when you lose weight suddenly it hurts when you’re a side sleeper. I had to get a memory foam mattress topper with a cushy pillow top that goes over it so my hips won’t hurt. And now when I sleep on my side I need a knee pillow because it hurts to have the bones in my knees touching each other.

I’m pretty happy with myself, I got a cheap ass stationary bike off Craigslist about a month and a half ago to see if I would reliably use it and, not only have I used it 5 days a week, I have made it to the point where I can do 5 miles on it a day without it feeling like too much.

I’m not necessarily uncomfortable with my weight or anything like that but work has been as such that I’m spending too many days behind a desk and I was getting more winded than I was personally comfortable with when chasing goats around.

If I keep it up until next year maybe I’ll get myself a nicer one for Christmas or something.
