I love how you have to gain muscle and lose weight I their opinion. Cuz that’s how bodies work. They totally lose weight when they gain muscle.
😂
I love the gesture when you said “I love this part”! My brain❤❤❤
Yes, lose weight but also gain muscle mass, may the odds be ever in your favour 😒
Good god sometimes I forget how much people can suck. So glad you have such a healthy self image
Idk what that dude was thinking and also idk if it’s a good way of thinking about having a “goal body” but you are so best ❤️❤️
Imagine how miserable that commenter must be to spend the time to type that angry projection. Just wowww..
Exactly!
I’m short, 5’3″, but with a relatively wide frame. Wide hips, larger chest, wider shoulders. If I weighed the 100-120 lbs these people expect, I’d look like I was on chemo. A goal body to me, is a healthy one for myself.
Same my dad is 6’4” and I am short, I have a wider frame bone structurally, if I weigh less than 130 pounds I look like a skeleton. I don’t understand the need to be as skinny as I can make myself, I’m just listening to my body. 😊
People think that calling me Fat is an insult even my mom I am a little fat and I do not care bcuz my body is healthy
I’m even shorter with the body type you described. I once achieved the ‘ goal body’ unintentionally by getting typhoid, I was sick and completely wasted and people told me that I have the ‘ right figure ‘ … I was this close to dying tho 🙁
Yeah, I have that person’s “goal body” and I lost my period. It’s not healthy and therefore shouldn’t be a goal. A healthy body (which includes a HEALTHY body weight, not being very skinny) should be our goal.
I don’t always share your opinions, but at least I have the decency to judge those instead of disregarding them because you don’t conform to my ideal beauty standards.
It astounds me how our society pretty much labels anyone who doesn’t appear emaciated as fat.
It’s sick, and mostly aimed at women!!🤬🤬
@@annawitter5161 Cos women ☕ are fat 😂
Yes at all
So true! This is one of the most sanest and realistic pieces of advice you’ve ever given. Why take advice from the unqualified, size nothing human being instead of the qualified and healthy weight one? Let’s use our brains people 🤓
Oh, but using the brain is such harrrrd wooooorrrrk!
People these days don’t know how to think for themselves. They can only follow the instructions that are given to them by their idols. 🤷
🙌🏻 Thank you for healthy normal and professional take! 🎉❤
Sad that person thinks you only have value if you fit an ideal, they themselves probably don’t and they ask us to follow their way of thinking.
I have a goal body ,my goal is to keep my body alive
“my body isn’t my business card” 👏👏👏 you have such a healthy way of mentally dealing with body-shaming & trolls!
Her body is no one else’s business. If you’re going to criticize, criticize content, not a personal attack.
Words like that used to make me relapse in my ED. Words are powerful. Don’t waste it on that.
I know im overweight because my asthma has been telling me. When i was a “healthy” weight, my hair was falling out, i had no periods, i was exhausted, and my skin would crack and bleed. There was a middle point where i was happy and healthy for a few years, about 165 to 190 lbs as a 5’9 female. I know thats technically a bit high, but it was what worked for me. Im working to get to it now, not for how i looked, but for how i felt
It doesn’t seem like a “goal body” is something a person could achieve without letting it take over their life. That much obsession can’t be good for your mental health. It’s sad that some people would rather go on the offensive than admit their opinion is not universal or that they might actually be (gasp) wrong. You can almost feel sorry for them
Thank you, I needed that. I have chronic health problems and I’m on a lot of medications. I feel terrible about myself anytime I shower. This showed up just after my shower. Thank you.
As someone who’s lost a reasonable amount of weight (about 10-15kg) over the span of the last 5-6 months, I’m so glad for honest people like you sharing genuine health and nutrition information and not just the insipid fads and outright lies of wellness influencers.
Thank you, Abbey. You are on fire! ❤
