New York’s Fat Beach Day gives plus-size people a space to be themselves - eviltoast

Jacob Riis Beach hosts the day of body positivity and fun, in the city at the heart of the fat acceptance movement

Fat Beach Day events are springing up across the US in an effort to fight back against fat-phobia, reclaim safe spaces for the community and honor plus-size culture. Today, one of these celebrations is being held to coincide with Pride month at Jacob Riis Beach in New York, a location deeply ensconced in the city’s activism space.

    Of course not and that’s not what they’re saying. They’re saying that trying to outrun a bad diet is never going to happen.

    You could run a marathon every day and then still gain weight because you ate three birthday cakes, five burgers a bucket of fries and a whole pizza for breakfast , lunch and dinner.

    Enablers hate admitting it, but weight is lost in the kitchen.

    If you want to lose weight, eat less, if you want you can also get fit. That’s the difference between being a healthy weight and being fit and healthy.
