Celebrating Adele's weight loss is a garbage thing to do for a million reasons. Here are two:
1. It tells your fat friends you think their bodies are a problem to be solved.
2. The weight loss could be the result of physical or mental health struggles. Weird to cheer about!

I had a nervous breakdown two years ago and was unable to eat. My heart was constantly racing to the point where my Fitbit tracked me doing 15 hours of cardio on a day I didn't leave my bed. I lost over 20% my body weight in four months.
If people saw a picture of me before and after, probably they'd think the after version was healthier (and some kind of achievement). In reality, this illness did lasting damage to my digestive system that I need to have a camera down my throat next month to assess.
Anyway shut up about Adele's body and everyone's body and shut up in advance about any dieting you are gonna do in the New Year or ever.
Weird that so many people are determined to ignore my second point which is that we have no idea how/why Adele lost weight? They are like "She clearly worked hard for this" when -- as I said -- the weight loss could have been a side effect of a serious illness (like mine was).
You can't tell by looking at someone how healthy they are.
And I'm not dictating what size anyone is. I'm not being critical of Adele at all. I'm being critical of the thousands of strangers commenting on her body, and by extension all fat bodies.
Anyway shout out to the people calling me a twat in my DMs! Die mad!
Hi I did not mean to abandon this thread, I'm busy doing holiday things! My DMs now have more nice messages than mean ones! I want to reassure folks that my mental health crisis was two years ago. I'm legit the happiest person I know. My life is rad and I hope the same for you!
