You don’t encourage people to take care of their body by telling them to hate it. They have to love the shit out of it first. everyday i’m tumblin’ – lacigreen.tumblr.com be my fwend? http tweet me! – www.twitter.com Music by Mike Kalombo! www.youtube.com VIDEO SUMMARY In this video I talk about fat shame and 3 ways to push back against it. The first way is to stop viewing/using “fat” as a bad word. The second way is to get real about what it means to be healthy & to own up to using “health” as an excuse to continue to fat shame. The third way is to love your body.

ahahahahahahahaha, they are very fun. It’s much better than sitting around on the interwebs making fun of people isn’t it?

That sounds like a nice time. And thank you. Other than coming home to your insults on how I like to spend my time, I had a swell day over all. However, you seem to have calmed down from your nastiness so all is decent. :)

Hey, did you know a circle is a shape? I know, righ?! I couldn’t fucking believe it either! So, wouldn’t this mean that fat people are in shape? Yes… yes it does.

Really? That’s all you have to say? You’re kind of proving “you’re real fucking thick” comment, you know. I’m actually more offended that that’s you’re epic response than the fact that you think calling me a “fat whore” is a decent enough insult to give your words any credibility.

Fat whore. I hit the nail in the head there, and you know it.

I’m really glad that you had a great day at the gym. Ecstatic even! I am really, genuinely happy that you enjoy sweating and working out in front of people. And, since you asked about my day like a gentleman, it was actually my birthday today and I had a great dinner with my family to celebrate it! However, even if I did spend it snacking and watching anime, again, it would be none of your business and I’m not entirely sure where you get off insulting people on what they like to do.

The first thing wrong with your reply is that you assume that my username is based off of the book series Twilight. Hunny, if anything, I do not sit around on my wonderfully plump rear-end and watch/read that horrible, awful series. The second thing wrong with your reply is assuming I’m a “whore” and using that as an insult. I’m not sure how I have given the presumption that I have ever in my life been solicited sex for money, but even if I have it would be none of your damned business.

I like how people arguing about people NOT being concerned about their health because of this video. THAT ITSELF IS EXACTLY THE PROBLEM. Stop caring so much about other people. If they want to worry about their own health and appearance issues, they can and they will. Thank you.

A twilight fat weabo whore. Pathetic. And just so you know, having a great body in shape means knowing about lifting, nutrition, anatomy, cardiovascular exersices, a bit of chemistry and being disciplined AMONG OTHER THINGS. Hahaha, today I had a great day at the gym, what did you do? Sit on your fat ass to eat nachos and watch twilight and anime?

Fuck them fatasses, they don’t respect their body I don’t respect them!
Laci I can tell you have excessive fat in certain areas, stop trying to justify here. I’ll show you fat shaming:
“Sup fat bitch, jelly belly….you got jelly in your belly you little fat slut. oooooooooo she’s a big girl! Chubby little fatty fuck. You like it when people say you have saggy tits like a 60 year old don’t ya whore!”

Love this vid, and all your vids, but I just want to point out those “traditional” values shamed thin women, much like today shames fat women. Fuck tradition, get a new body love in this place! (Which you seam to be encouraging so go you!!)

Almost everyone can get in shape and healthy. If you sit all day,and everything bad that is out there,don’t lift a finger to work out or something,how can you expect to be locked uppon the same way as people who really work they’re body every day or on a regular basis?I know there are skinny people who can have diabetes, I know a guy,or fat people that can’t really control that but hey, as much as I usually agree with Lacy, sluggish people will use this video as an excuse for the way the look…

BY THE YEAR 2020 MORE THAN 40% AMERICANS WILL BE WAY OVER OBESE.
FAT PEOPLE ARE UGLY, MEAN, IGNORANT, DULL, SELFISH, MEAN AND DUMB.
THEY ARE ANIMALS WHO LIVE TO EAT.

Different shades, heights and hair types and colors! Two women who look very different can both be completely beautiful! So I don’t know who the fuck you think you are to tell me that I’m “overweight not curvy”. Fuck you! Call me what you want but I’m not listening. I have curves, thick with it, or fat, whatever the fuck I wanna call it. It’s my body not yours. I bet you’re a guy or a self-hating woman. STFU with your preconceived ideas and try to think if you ignorance with let you!
