I am so angry about this post, I felt compelled to share it.

omg! i would like to smack this woman upside the head! thank you for being outraged. to many girls feel like that and need to know its wrong.

Very interesting. A lot of the things she said, especially the most hateful, are all things I have said to myself about being fat.

Hearing someone else say them makes me see how much they hurt.

I feel very sorry for this person or anyone for whom being thin is really all there is to their life.

Thank you so much for the new things to think about!

Celebrity talk trash all the time which is why I don't read any celebrity orientated magazines or tv etc. Its horrible really. Every time I go to Asia, there are always these celebrity weight loss advertisements all over the place. I kind of pity them in the way because they must get a lot of pressure to put on that public image to be skinny. This celebrity just sounds resentful, insecure and probably has a lot of self hate. I doubt she has any real friends with an attitude like that too. What a way to live.

This can't be for real!

"Fatties" is no better than any other slur out there, if you ask me. And I can become whatever the hell I want to become, achieve whatever the hell I want to achieve, no matter the weight. Plenty of fat people made their marks on history--

what a dumb thing to judge someone by! People should be judged by their character, or not at all. God, this is ignorant, I don't blame you for getting so mad.

This is ridiculous! I am Asian (Philippines) but my culture is not like this, we actually love our food and we are not forced by our own parents not to eat because, really, that is just wrong!

I stopped reading about half way through. She can kiss my big oversized @55.

I definitely can see why people are angry and hurt by such a message, but I lawled. I lawled because while this is a fudged up message to a young and impressionable age group (doesn't matter what culture, any country has people who say things like this or parade around with an a$$hat firmly attached to their heads), I see that it's idiotic. We all did when we were reading it, and I think the people that "liked" it either did so because they were amused at the stupidity (a la Paris Hilton) or have never been even remotely close to a heavy weight.

I laughed because to me it's a classic controversial publicity stunt that seemed to work great for her. That's what I saw of the message, and I know the only critic I will be concerned with is myself. That's who I've been battling for years, and some crazy lady who can't find a synonym for "fattie" is not going to hold a candle to my own judgements of myself.

I do think it's a horrible message to be spreading because of the chance that it can be taken seriously as advice, but yeah, it didn't affect me adversely by reading it.

I've been checking on Chinese sites that 'advertised' her rant...and the comments from a lot of these girls make me want to cry....

*She is so right. I don't deserve to eat, I deserve to be fat.
*It's only hunger, I really need to just deal with it.
*This is super cool. I am sharing with all of my friends. Everyone should read this.
*I'm so glad to found this. I'm going to be chanting to myself everytime I want to eat.
*I'm 159cm and 59kgs, I am a little fat...I should be better...(159cm and 59kg is fat?! WTF?!?)
*Anyone who wants to give up dieting should read this.

And there's a lot more but I just got madder and sadder...

I just wanted to say how glad I am to have found My Fitness Pal. I'm 31 years old, a good 20 years of my life (yes, 20 years, my mother's put me on a diet since I was 11...) I've been going the wrong way about this whole weight loss journey. Even though I grew up in the States, the years I did live with my mom I felt so unattractive everytime I gained a little bit of weight. I was never more than 125lbs when I was in high school but even then I was still considered 'fat'. Even entering adulthood, I always believed that if I ate less, I will lose weight. Honestly, if I didn't find MFP, I would've tried to lose the weight the same way I've always done it, 5 day diet, 7 day diet, Atkin's Diet, South Bean diet, Zone diet, no food, just water and breathing diet, etc. I found MFP by accident and for the first time in my life, I had a clear picture of what I was doing. If you are new to MFP and are reading this, this site is a jewel. Let your MFP friends help you through the tough times and celebrate the good times all together. I couldn't have done any of this without any of my friends on this site. It's friends like the ones I've made on here that keep me sane and not buy into all the gibberish I've originally posted. I think, if I didn't have MFP and if I was back in my old ways, I would've read it as my Mantra as well. I probably would've printed out and put it all over my house to remind me of what a 'fattie' I am.

Thank you to MFP for helping me see a clearer and healthier path. I owe my weight loss to you. xx

God I wish I could find a way to ban this woman from tv...

i totally share your anger about this. btw i read this a while ago in the chinese media (i live in china) and while i didn't like petite S before, i especially dislike her now. reading it the first time made me feel ill, now reading it again makes me so MAD.

unfortunately her attitude is prevalent among young women here. i hate it. you can never be too thin. it is so obvious to me that many girls have eating disorders here, and they are not only socially acceptable but ENCOURAGED. i am a recovering anorexic. i would never wish my condition on my worst enemy. i want to shake the girls who say "oh yeah, dieting is easy, just eat once a day." "i am just going to eat one apple a day! i can lose weight so fast!"

the thing about "three digits" made me cringe. i weigh 124lbs at 5'7". this is by no means fat, but my fiance's aunties love to tell me "you'd look so good at about 98lbs!" ummm. no. i do not. i have been hospitalized and put on a feeding tube at 98lbs. it is horrible.

i find that here, generally, anyone over about 52kg here is considered "fat" regardless of height.

grr >_<;;;;;

I've said most of this to myself at one time or another - but the fact that someone else is saying it makes it worse. Wow...

Mandi1968

Sad but true, this is much like the peer pressure teen girls are exposed to in our High Schools today...
My daughter has told me about some of the unbelievably cruel opinions shared amongst the in crowd about girls who are even just slightly over weight....
We have to enocurage being healthy in our society as the ultimate goal!

Patecakers

To all my "fatty" friends out there....I LOVE YOU, YOU ARE IMPORTANT AND HATERS LIKE THIS "FITNESS GURU" HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT!!! So sad that she says if you want to lose weight stop eating...ummm hello starvation mode where you WON'T LOSE any weight!!! This person is a total ignoramus who has no idea what fitness and beauty are truly about! I hope and pray that NOBODY ever listens to her!!! WOW so sad

Patecakers

Banning this woman would be FANTASTIC!!!! It's just disgusting how these poor girls are being influenced into thinking the same way as she does....truly horrible
