My big fat Fabulous life ( no negative comments please) . What do think of the show? I really enjoy the show ,

Hate it

think its a bag of mixed and confusing messages.

Is this a proper message to send our children? That it's okay to be morbidly obese?  
 
The answer is no - no it's not okay.

I agree it's a mixed bag of messages. Should people be shamed for their body's type/ size/ abilities? No. Whitney's message is 'no body shaming', which is important in a society that puts a LOT of emphasis on looks and weight. Is it possible to be overweight and fit? Yes. People don't have to be a certain size to be physically fit. Can being morbidly obese increase risk of certain health problems? Yes. People who are overweight and obese are at increased risk of diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, and other illnesses. Is there a lot of drama in the show? Yes, too much for me! But that's part of the reason reality shows are so popular, so to each their own!

She has a disease called poly cystic ovary something. She's is active with dancing and what not but I don't think she can entirely control her weight by diet and exercise as say, a "normal" healthy person can.  
 
Besides.... who cares! If someone chooses to be big then let them. How does it affect you? If someone chooses to be skinny as a rail, they can. How does it affect you? No body shame right?

where do these people get there money from to eat at fast food restaurants 3 times a day

I find it offensive, I have polycystic ovarian syndrome and yes one poster was completely right you can not control your weight the same as a normal person. There was a point I worked out 3/4 hours a day and still was bigger but it does allow you to build muscle easier then most women. But back to speaking of the show when I first started watching I thought it would be good and informative and bring awareness that it is a horrible uncontrollable disease. But she's turned into her drama and excuses and I find it offensive that she's uses pcos as an excuse and really does not show any of the treatments you can use
