You can listen to us on Spotify or Apple Podcasts then 😘
I've missed you two so much!!!! I hope you are doing well Sam! Lots of hugs and positive vibes sending your way!
That's no is the magic solution for all, but many people think that is true... I like your spech about that 😊
Thank you!
crazy how you can make a whole podcast about being fat
crazy that you care so much
Vegans demand vegan option in our sane dinner. Why vegans can't give us sane options in their dinners?!
I am feeling this podcast episode!
Thank you!!!
You girls are both very pretty.
Thank you for the kindness ❤️
1. Happy Birthday Hayley!! Also your cat is cute!! 2. I am still mad about my Hubby's Grandma's gift. I burst into tears when I saw it because I was heartbroken. It has been a year! The year we got engaged she gifted me her first ever gift to me and it was a box of kitchen stuff so I could cook for her grandson. -_- Her gift this year comes in today.... I am afraid... oh well if I hate it I will just return it for Witchcraft books for the second year in a row. 3. YES!!! I am 5'3" and I have to wear skinnies only. 4. For years my mom refused to buy me anything goth or anime or Japanese related until I got married. She wanted me to be normal so badly!!! As for my hubby, he is hit or miss. Sometimes he can be romantic. Other times it is from the list. He tries.
Update: got her gifts today. Hubby made sure one was from the list. She gave me a second item: A RANDOM CHRISTMAS NOTEPAD. Can this woman not stick to my list?!

I was subscribed for schadenfreude purposes but I just can't anymore...you guys have zero business discussing science or medicine when you believe in absolutely debunked trash nonsense like astrology and reiki...this is embarrassing. Go back to school. I knew West Virginia was backwards and ignorant but this takes the cake.
Thank you for being unapologetically anti-genocide. It's sad that's a controversial stance to take right now.
It’s so sad. Thank you 💖
Simplemente todos merecen ser tratados con respeto sin importar su apariencia, y en mi experiencia las personas "gordas" tienen un corazon inmenso y son tan dulces. Good topic 😁
Thank you so much!

I agree with the point about the mid-size, main with the clothe's brand, i know for my wife
I like your video... is a good topic 😊
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it.
This is so cool!!!
Thank you!!! We're still in awe. It was awesome to meet someone who had such an impact during our tween/teen years.
Phobia means fear. What exactly is fat phobia? I'm not afraid of fat people. Are their people who are fearful of fat people like spiders or heights?
We can't speak for the entire world population regarding whether there are people who are fearful of fat people like spiders or heights. The general definition of -phobia is 'an exaggerated or irrational fear of, aversion to, or discrimination against ...' So in this context, fatphobia is similar to homophobia. So people may not be deathly afraid of fat people if they see them on the street, but they may be disgusted at the sight of a very fat person. Or they can be afraid of gaining weight and becoming fat, or may treat themselves poorly if they ever gain "too much" weight. They may call fat people lazy or immoral, perpetuate negative stereotypes about fat people, make jokes about fatness, or treat fat people very poorly just because of their size. Just like how someone who is homophobic could be very upset if a gay individual expressed a romantic interest in them. Or can be disgusted by seeing same-sex couple PDA interactions. Homophobic people could refuse to interact with gay people, say that they're are immoral and going to hell just because they're gay, make jokes about being queer, or treat someone badly or even commit a crime against them because they're gay. Other examples of the use of -phobia in this connotation are transphobia, islamophobia, and xenophobia.

Lol nooooo
Thanks for the engagement!
Can you tell that to my mom!! 😂
we have to tell all of ours tbh!
Workout stop talking
No. Thanks for the engagement tho
@@thehegemon996 no, what I don’t like is random men online bullying women because we aren’t catering to your gaze.
@@thehegemon996 okay lmao whatever you want to tell yourself 😂 your 800 comments trolling us about weight and what we say proves otherwise.
Who is Rosie?? I'm a lot. 🤣 Love it. 💞
We did too!
That made me chuckle too! I mean technically, there is more of her than there is of me so she is more lovable!! I just started watching her and fell in love with her personality. Like Hungry Fat Chick has a heart of gold IMO
@@nicky7338 she’s such a sweet person! We loved having her on the pod
"Hi! I'm Rosee and I'm a lot" Loved everything about this vid! I love Rosie!! I understand a lot more about a topic I literally know nothing about (Ignorance on my part) Very well put together and it was nice to meet the new podcasters!! Good luck everyone with your new ventures!!
Thank you so much! We love Rosie too ☺ We also didn't know much about those topics and appreciated her vulnerability and willingness to educate us.
@@ThePlusSizeSection I'm older now so my perspective may be a lil odd to the youngins nowadays LOL I have had a little time to reflect on your podcast. Decades ago, there was absolutely no options for understanding your pain. No therapy and when growing up in a dysfunctional alcoholic Family> So I find myself now figuring things out lil by lil by watching her struggles. I used to have an eating disorder from stress at home. Then I found alcohol and weed...then coke then the big H If I knew then what I know now!! Recovering Catholic so I can also relate to the confusion about the Guy upstairs. Wow!! I'm pretty chatty today! Anyway, loved the podcast!! 🙂
Hi ladies I really enjoyed hearing your perspective on these topics and am looking forward to seeing what more your channel can bring for women and people here on YT. I love the worthy at any size too! Take care lovelies ❤
Thanks so much for your support and kind words! We hope you'll continue to listen/watch each week 💖
This focused and calmer, less dramatic version of Rosie is refreshing and more likeable.
I feel like there is a much kinder way to phrase this?
I agree @westcoastlass, Rosie is such a great person, but she’s a lot to take in, i like when she’s much calmer.
@@ThePlusSizeSection Can you give me an example perhaps then? I thought I was being kind?
@@tictok12345 Yess!
@@westcoastlass maybe it just read in a different way than you intended it! My bad
Thank you so much for having me on about my experiences with leaving feederism!
Of course! We loved having you as our guest 💖
I love how honest and real you are rosee!!
Preach! 🎉
thank you!
Excited to find ur channel today! Love your vibes! ❤🎉

As someone who is allergic to penicillin there are loads of other meds you can take instead. She should have said to doc and they would have given her a different type of antibiotic
She wasn't allergic lol her boyfriend, a separate human being, was.
@@ThePlusSizeSection fully aware of that, I have eyes and ears. I wouldn’t kiss my partner if she was on penicillin (I wouldn’t got as far as to not let her keep it in the house though) and I’m saying that there are so many other alternatives to penicillin so she doesn’t have to keep it out the house. I thought that was clear but obviously not
Just stay with your parents...what...
Right! There didn't need to be a discussion or to put off taking the medication they needed.
No need for any conversation on this it their personal health on the line. As long as the BF knows where it is and not dumb enough to take it I would think he would be fine. If he is afraid of coming in contact with it from kissing them then don't kiss until they are better and off the meds.
Right?! This is the sensible response. Allergic reactions are no joke, but a penicillin allergy isn't deadly from just being around the pills!
Nah you are not the bad one. Neither is your boyfriend he is just cautious. Take your medication. You are entitled to it. Just don’t get touchy as it might invoke a reactions(allergic)
why should she have to talk to him about it? just let her go stay at her parents so she can get better. he sounds controlling. i understand not wanting them around because he may be very allergic, but she doesnt have to get your permission to go to her parents then.
Yes. He sounds soooo controlling. The full story was even worse!
I was raised in a Wiccan household so I dabble in basic spells, dream interpretations, and candle magick. I avoid doing anything to sway someone else's free will and don't cast harm intended spells on behalf of anyone. Karma is real and I don't meddle in other's business like that...But I've used a sour jar to ward my ex away.
Hey whatever works to keep the lame ex’s away right! We are here for it!
They try so hard to exaggerate everything. The worst of the species
Men? Yeah, I know they do!
this looks like whales can now streaming too, sorry i had to.
L insult and L sentence structure 😂 go suck a tailpipe 😘
My hang-up with the wasting food story is that red meat isn't super great for you anyway. Why is the fatty portion of meat the hill mom chooses to die on? Her daughter is gaining weight? Oh, you mean the thing teenagers do because their body is developing? I have a parent like this who is sadly the product of growing up in the 90s and early 2000s and always criticized my weight as a teen. We aren't genetically the same, she is my step-mom and never got that. She tried to empathize with me saying she understands what it is like to be fat...her top out weight was 175...Like, girl. I have 0 tolerance when it comes to pushing your issues onto your kids. I have 2 and would never imagine treating them like I was treated.
All of this 👏🏻 you’re right! This is the weirdest hill to die on. Our parents are very similar 🥺 so entrenched in diet culture that they cannot wrap their minds around their issues with food and what they perpetuated onto us as well. It’s truly sad!
Nope, I externalise it.
Sounds like you’re a miserable person! 💀
If you have crystals that need a free home they can come live with me. ;)
Just want to say a huge thank you to all the haters for the engagement 🥰 and for literally proving our point without realizing it 😘 And an even bigger thank you to those being supportive in the comments! You’re our heroes 💖💖💖
As a fat guy, being fat is unhealthy. I'm currently 280 lbs and I wish I would've never taken the lazy way out and not exercise. I'm currently working on losing the weight because I'm currently weak and slow. I want to be strong and fast. Lose weight friends, be healthy.
Bold of you to assume, as a self-described fat man, that neither of us have lost a significant amount of weight already or are currently on intentional weight loss journeys? It’s okay to decide to lose weight for yourself and also agree that fat people are treated like shit. These thoughts can exist together.
If you dont wanna lose weigth its ok, but dont make stupid posts about body positivity for the younger generations 2 watch. Surgery is not the easy way out, you all so lazy that prefer getting buchered that going to exercise and swet a little. Lose skin may not be aesthetic but it wont hurt ur health, lose skin CAN'T kill you. You should apply to yourself the last sentence and start to worry about yourself and not about what ppl think, cuz if you really think about it you are worried about what ppl may think about your body more than your own health. Theres a reason why theres no fat elders around sharing the sme speech, they all dead. And to be honest most ppl dgaf about your look, its all in your head. Do you want an original advice? Leave USA for 6 months, come to Europe and you will lose between 50 to 100 lbs just by eating more healthy food ( you have way less junk food to chose here ) drinking mostly water avoid all those filthy sodas zero or not, and walking from one place to another, we walk to everywhere and you guys take the car to buy bread... Its really not that hard as you all want it to look, with a few little changes that u can mantain from a long period of time, it wont be as hard to stick to the plan, its something that u can actually add to your normal life and if you drop weigh progressively you will have less lose skin If you feel like thats way to hard for you, its ok but stop the fatphobia speech cuz u all ill and will die by time you are 50 to 60 yo, so stop caring that much on what ppl think or say and start to care about your own health
Wym they can’t win, they good at not losing weight
Good try! Thanks for the engagement 😘
We worry about ourselves if you worry about yourself, don't try to change "beauty standards", because the human psyche is designed to be attracted to fit bodies, if you can live with that fact, with the fact that someone fit IS more attractive than you, stay fat, i assure you, nobody cares more than yourself about it
If you’re so unbothered, why did you take the time to write this historically and biologically inaccurate response?
@@ThePlusSizeSection it takes a couple seconds of my time and it might help, i am a psychologist lady, i know what im talking about, this is not hating, this are facts, you could accept them and from then on decide what is the course you would like to take to live a better life with yourself, or you could stay in denial, trying to change society as a whole instead of changing something about yourself
@@thirdworldgamer8717 actually no, it is hating and your “facts” are false! Thanks for the engagement though 💖
@@ThePlusSizeSection on what basis would I hate you? I don't know you, this is the first time I've ever seen you, the comments I read were people giving their opinion whiteout being disrespectful, maybe you should think about that instead of dismissing everything as hating

Let me time travel back to when I was 3 years old and fix it 😂😂😂 Real ones stay bricked up 24/7?! I guess I missed the memo
It’s called living a healthier life and not shedding years off of it.
Wow fancy mann, that was certainly a fancy take. Do you always make assumptions about other people without knowing ANYTHING about their daily life? That’s not very fancy.
@@ThePlusSizeSection I’m not making an assumption I’m telling the truth.
@@FancyMann actually, you’re making the assumption that we’re both currently in poor health and haven’t already lost weight. Not fancy at all
@@ThePlusSizeSection well, in that case good for you losing weight. What I’m still saying is true and a fact. I just find it funny that you’re still trying to prove that I’m wrong but in reality I’ve already won.
@@ThePlusSizeSection because like the short says fat people can’t win.
