    Speaking as a disgusting fat bastard myself, feel free to criticise and mock me as much as you want.

    Maybe it’ll finally motivate me to do something about it.

        Everyone is different. For me, mockery was much more motivating. While it was not a good place, browsing r/FatPeopleHate was what got me to finally get in shape

        Lost it a lot faster than it took to get it, for the record

      Self hate is approximately as good a motivator as ridicule, ie a negative one.

      Depression or whatever the damage is isn’t solved with more trauma.

      To start climbing out of your hole your first step is forgiving yourself for not being perfect.
