Hmm. A lot of this is the way you personally feel about people who are not thin. Firstly, you buy clothes and underwear that fit you (not the size you think you should be). Lack of confidence / not wanting to have photos taken is all your perception of how you think you’re more validated as a person if you’re thinner. It’s a society wide problem and this is why ‘body positive’ accounts are important. You don’t have to lose weight to improve those things, your frame of mind around your weight has to change and you have to accept and love yourself. Everyone has different metabolic make up, many people couldn’t put on as much weight as Tally if they tried (we all have friends that eat terribly, never exercise and are stick thin) it doesn’t mean they’re healthier.sorry if this offends people and I know some people will be happy with it but for me being bigger just has so many downsides (lack of clothes fitting, lack of confidence with my other half, chafing, sweating, hating and overanalysing photos taken of me, having no cardio stamina, even my underwear feeling tight…) I just don’t buy it.
You hit the nail on the head!Glad I found this thread! I really hate this body positive movement in that it’s so fake. If you’re banging on about how happy you are in your body it’s probably not true. I just don’t buy that Tally is SOOOO HAPPY with her body when she used to be smaller and started her career along those lines. I’m around the size Tally is now (but I’m taller) and I’m on a plan to lose around 15-20kg because I know it’s better for my body, my health, my joints, my future plans to have kids, and to feel better in my body and my clothes. It’s just bullshit when people say otherwise.

True but there is two sides to the argument. I don’t want to post before/after photos for weight loss 1. Because it pisses people off 2. Because it’s unnecessaryHmm.

I agree, I think my viewpoint missed out that I put on significant weight during lockdown so my reference point is before when I felt better in myself in most of those different aspects. As someone with joint issues too, this weight has made them exponentially worse, and so to me it’s a direct health impact. I also know it can impact infertility, which is on my radar. Not the same for everyone I agree, but I felt and looked better when at a lower weight so it annoys me when those things are seemingly disregarded.You hit the nail on the head!

But also I gained a lot of weight during lockdown and it’s not healthy to promote obesity either. When start to feel unhealthy that’s when you start to question yourself .

But what people can annoyed with is those influencers like Tally who just jump on the bandwagon and then contradict themselves and everything they were about before.I agree, I think my viewpoint missed out that I put on significant weight during lockdown so my reference point is before when I felt better in myself in most of those different aspects.

I can't get my head around her and the dozens of others who want to have paid clients and/or subscribers for quite simply telling them stuff that an hour on the internet and a good old google would unearth.I haven’t followed her for that long and was actually shocked she has “clients” and does coaching/training whatever you want to call it. Who is looking at paying her for advice?? I’m sorry but she’s not aspirational (to me)…
I sort of understand maybe people want a trainer who isn't focused on weightloss but she also isn't fitI haven’t followed her for that long and was actually shocked she has “clients” and does coaching/training whatever you want to call it.
