Well I think the problem is she's eating more energy than she needs which is very unhealthy. The obesity epidemic is killing millions of people and we need to call people out for not using their platforms for good.
She is beautiful. And I am so happy that her husband stood up for her. He didn't marry for her weight. He married her because he fell in love with who she is. God bless her.

@@theviralsnail I grew up around bigger people. I didn’t grow up fat. I don’t know a SINGLE person who looks at someone fat and is just like “huh, I wanna be big like them”. So no, having weight on you is NOT an influence. It doesn’t influence people to get fatter. Telling people to eat more when they’ve had enough is influencing a bad habit. Simply being fat is not. We ALSO shouldn’t be influencing people to be skinny. Anorexia nervosa and bulimia are BOTH mental health issues. There are unhealthy skinny people out there and healthy fat people. Many of the healthy fat people tend to walk a lot, be outside more, and have healthier relationships with those around them. I believe a lot of obese issues actually are social as being made fun of and mocked and criticized has a way bigger influence on health than what you put in your body.

Glad she addressed this bully. She’s such a beautiful woman. Can’t believe that guy wrote such a beautiful person, such a nasty letter. She proved she’s a winner and this only made her stronger. This letter helped her to know even more, she’s a beautiful person on the inside and out. Because of all the positive feedback she received. Wish the world was more loving. Glad she had a loving husband that helped her through this
whats nasty about it? he didn't use a single cuss word, slur, or fat -term. he was just being honest. now she made a fool of herself on tv for no reason. and you call her a hero. maybe she is, but in the end she's in poor health.
You are beautiful the way you are. I admire your professionalism and your strength. That man that wrote that email is probably lonely, miserable and had nothing better to do.

We need more people like you in the world.
What he said is true. I feel for her and understand where she is coming from. I have weight issues too, but I acknowledge that obesity is a disease and that it is curable. It is different from race, gender, and sexual preference in two major ways. There is something wrong with it, and the person who has it can change it. Obesity is one of the major killers, and the news lady really should try hard to fix the problem. She can do it.
@@LibertyFascism Of course. But I disagree that it will harm children. Positive reinforcement and healthy eating and exercise will support children to have a healthy lifestyle, but those children will see overweight and obese people no matter what.

@@prnklinfierc, parents should teach their kids to be healthy and also not to be cruel to others. If the guy who sent the email is teaching his kids to be mean, then he is a hypocrite.
@@LibertyFascism exactly. Also, what's the point in shaming the person like that? Pointing out that someone is obese won't magically make them drop the weight and it's not like they aren't aware that they're overweight... So his words were very useless.

Obesity is NOT a choice. The person who sent that negative message is cruel, heartless, & extremely RUDE. That man IS a bully. He is teaching criticism. GOD BLESS you Darlin'. Your message is so positive, powerful & proper. Bullies are inferior complexes seeking acceptance via putting down others.
If showing someone smoking on TV is a bad example for children. What is it when we show someone fat on TV? Both are a choice. Both contribute to health issues.
@@ricardocabeza6006 One is a body size the other is a behavior. So no, it’s not a valid critique, especially since it’s there are overweight children and teens. Or should they now be hidden because they’re overweight?
@@ricardocabeza6006 it’s not like being tall. But both are linked to genetics and other factors, factors which you seem to want to pleasantly leave out. And last both of them are physical characteristicss, not harmful behaviors. Of course people can strive for their ideal weight, but at the end of the day, her weight has nothing to do with her job. That guy, and apparently you, are disguising your visual preferences for concern.

You should probably bully smokers and drinker to leave it, because it's a bad habit and can be given up. Being obese is neither a habit nor a choice. It's a state where you get stuck. (Now I am sounding like old woman 😂)

Yeah, 7 years later, just enjoy your morbidly obese county with billions paid in healthcare due to obesity because all the people who tell you that is not normal are "bullies". You hypocrites.
If someone called me ugly, I’d laugh because I know it’s not true. Yet, someone called her obese and she went on an attention-seeking tirade. Her reaction validates his insult.

Who tf is he? And why does he think his opinion should matter to her? He's not concerned with her health and neither are you lol

@@chrism1966 I think that some parents are not bullies, but may over-indulge their children. I think bullies have self-esteem issues; they have either low self-esteem or an over-inflated ego, an unhealthily high self-esteem from parents treating them as if they are a cut above everybody else or that their every whim and desire deserves being satisfied.

What a rude e-mail! Some people does not have any control over how their body look. Healthwise there are a lot of things that can cause you to gain weight. Sometimes you just have to live this motto: "What others think of me is none of my business. They are only revealing their own lack of integrity." And with that: WOW! Wow! And WOW again! You GO GIRL!

Not all heroes wear capes. What an incredible human! My daughter is in kindergarten & has been bullied for being “fat”…IN KINDERGARTEN!

I remember this crap in school.. and this was less than 2 years ago. I’m underweight and I remember being told to eat more. I hate how people think they can judge anyone based on appearances. Sadly this hasn’t gotten any better... hopefully one day people like the man who sent that message will be publicly shamed (given a taste of their own medicine) so this stops happening. Hopefully everyone will start to stick up for people but as of rn, it doesn’t seem to happen at all. People just stand by and watch or laugh.
I’m so sorry you were bullied by that man! He has no clue! Believe me, I know the feeling. My former boss told me that I’ve never done anything wrong, but my physical appearance is not what they need in the company. I was fired after 14 years. I do have a big weight problem, but like that guy who wrote you that terrible email, they have no clue what we go through. For me, I’ve gained a lot of,weight due to,the steroids I have to take because of my lupus. However, that should not make a difference. Nobody deserves to be treated like this!

I was fat when I was in elementary school. I wasn’t “cool” in middle school. And I had bad acne in HS. I wish I heard someone as strong as you when I was a kid.
@UCp_BHwUWr8Obu_yvrpuQWTQ its not always a choice. And people who think it is have never truly suffered in any way. Likely because they are ego maniacal maniacs.

That's very nice of you three skinny women to stick up for the fat girl, you are using the story to boost your moral, Of course this is just my opinion, That's a nice picture Britt showing cleavage of your flat chest and you're saying you don't like attention from men.

I realize this is an old video but I just came across it. The cruel words that that idiot wrote to the beautiful lady enraged me. First of all, young viewers, “girls in-particular”, aren’t influenced by another persons size unless it is first pointed out to them. Second of all, who cares what her size is as long as she does her job well. Again, I’m enraged.
@Ownerthekpwner last time i checked that phrase wasn’t something used by close-minded people to call others overly sensitive or really to make any impactful jab at all but sure whatever you say🤣
Even if the person who wrote the email was well-meaning and didn't intend on it being an attack or bullying message, it was misplaced. The issue is that her role is not to "promote a healthy lifestyle". It's not her responsibility to ensure childhood obesity no longer exists. That would be up to each individual child and their parents. People tune-in to the news for the news and weather, not to see how fit, healthy and athletic their bodies can be. Additionally, there's more to being an example than being the correct weight, such as showing kindness and having the right attitude. You don't have to be perfect in every way to be an inspiration for someone or for them to look up to you. You take what you can get from people. If you don't think you should look up to her for your physique, look to someone else. And look up to her for other things. It's as simple as that.
Thank you for those wonderful words of inspiration and encouragement as a person with a disability myself it is hard to wake up everyday and face the criticism of ignorant people that is why I have started my own TH-cam channel under the name for what you see at the top of this message every time I do a video on my channel I do everything they can to teach people and Trey to get people to take a moment in stop to think about how what they do affects people keep up the good work and we will be watching
Very likely. I don’t like the whole fat acceptance movement, however I also don’t think it’s cool to critique someone else’s weight in such an unsolicited fashion.
The fact she didn’t cry while reading the teleprompter was true strength.

This lady's composure was simply excellent. A big applause and many good wishes her way.
She was a little melodramatic.
@@watermelon520b she could’ve been way more responsive and no one would’ve blamed her except bodyshamers
@Ownerthekpwner LMFAO UR HILARIOUS
@Ownerthekpwner so original very good keep calling me a snowflake for saying she wasn’t being a drama queen💀
@Ownerthekpwner last time i checked that phrase wasn’t something used by close-minded people to call others overly sensitive or really to make any impactful jab at all but sure whatever you say🤣
Even if the person who wrote the email was well-meaning and didn't intend on it being an attack or bullying message, it was misplaced. The issue is that her role is not to "promote a healthy lifestyle". It's not her responsibility to ensure childhood obesity no longer exists. That would be up to each individual child and their parents. People tune-in to the news for the news and weather, not to see how fit, healthy and athletic their bodies can be. Additionally, there's more to being an example than being the correct weight, such as showing kindness and having the right attitude. You don't have to be perfect in every way to be an inspiration for someone or for them to look up to you. You take what you can get from people. If you don't think you should look up to her for your physique, look to someone else. And look up to her for other things. It's as simple as that.
Thank you for those wonderful words of inspiration and encouragement as a person with a disability myself it is hard to wake up everyday and face the criticism of ignorant people that is why I have started my own TH-cam channel under the name for what you see at the top of this message every time I do a video on my channel I do everything they can to teach people and Trey to get people to take a moment in stop to think about how what they do affects people keep up the good work and we will be watching
something tells me the guy who wrote that takes pictures of his food and give people unwanted lifting advice at the gym
😂😂😂😂😂😂
nothing but facts
Nahhhh he probably is a fat middle aged man
Very likely. I don’t like the whole fat acceptance movement, however I also don’t think it’s cool to critique someone else’s weight in such an unsolicited fashion.
He’s right! She needs to lose weight! Quit crying about it!
