Obesity is linked to many factors, some of which are uncontrollable, so it is unreasonable to judge these women without knowing what each one of them is dealing with in their own private life.

Women reveal how they have been fat shamed by their own husbands and boyfriends in shocking online confessions.  Women from around the world spoke candidly about being bullied, mocked and ridiculed over their size at home.

One woman told how she receives praise from her boyfriend whenever she limits her food intake despite previously suffering from anorexia.

Another whose partner claims to have a fetish for fat ladies revealed she has been judged over her size despite not being overweight. Many others confessed their lovers started making comments about their body after having children and during pregnancy.

No one should be blamed for being obese as it were. Losing weight is not easy, those people saying that these women have not made any effort to lose weight clearly have no idea what they are talking about.

Body size does not determine if you are healthy or not. To determine if a person is obese their Body Mass Index or (BMI) should be greater to or equal to 30.0.

Taking a person’s weight in kilogrammes and dividing it by the person’s squared height in metres gets you BMI. As long as you haven’t done these to anyone of these women please shut up or admit you know nothing, really.

Here are some tips for weight loss:

  • Early morning: A glass of warm water with lemon, honey and black pepper (honey is a very good home remedy for weight loss).
  • Breakfast: Oatmeal porridge, stewed apples or pancakes made Ayurvedic style.
  • Mid morning: A glass of orange, pineapple or carrot juice.
  • Lunch: it should be your main meal, make sure it has a wide variety of warm, cooked food.
  • Dinner: Steamed vegetables, soups, whole grain chapati and seasonal fruit except banana and apple (they are hard to digest) take them for breakfast instead. Exercise, massages with oils and herbs are also very effective in weight loss.
  • Avoid: Fatty fried foods and chocolates (Junk food)

Everyone should mind his or her own body size! Some claim to have a size 8 body, and that’s fine! But honestly of what help is telling us or calling these women all manner of names without offering any sensible solution?
